Dustin also made known of his marriage downfalls: 'I mean, we’re certainly not two perfect people. We have fights. Although when we fight, we just get very, very quiet. And then we know we’re in trouble, one or the other!'

He proudly proclaimed: 'We’re certainly not doing it for public approval.' 

This candid interview comes after Tom's discussion with Attitude magazine on its podcast earlier this month, where he admitted the couple 'have really tough times and struggles'.

The 2012 Olympic bronze medalist opened up about when the pair lived apart: 'For example we went long distance for a very, very, long time: he was in LA, I was living in London. We would spend sometimes five weeks apart.

'It's something that was really, really tough and we've had to make massive and dramatic changes in our lives in order to be able to live together and see each other all the time...so it's not all plain sailing.'

Their relationship endured a number of setbacks, as the pair had secretly been on a seven-month break after living in separate countries.

The couple enjoyed a romantic Spanish honeymoon in August after their blissful May nuptials.
