Personal history

[edit]

Duke was born on 18 June 1986 in Cwmbran, South Wales. As well as having achondroplasia, Duke was born with Alport syndrome, a kidney disease, and suffers from reducing hearing and asthma.[2] After suffering kidney failure he received a donor kidney in 2006 from his father, but when this failed Duke was forced to go on dialysis. He underwent another kidney transplant in 2010, receiving a kidney from his uncle, however the organ failed after about 16 months in July 2011, resulting in Duke retiring from swimming.[2] Gareth Duke passed away on 19/06/2026 as a result of Chronic Kidney Disease.

Personal life

[edit]

In December 2025, Duke was sentenced to six months in prison, suspended for 18 months, after engaging in online sexual activity with a child.[3]
