Prince William honored Peaty at Buckingham Palace with an MBE (Member of the British Empire) back in a ceremony that took place in October of 2017, following his athletic achievements at the 2016 Summer Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, and his subsequent wins at the 2017 World Championships in Budapest, Hungary.
In Rio de Janeiro, Peaty won the gold medal in the men’s 100 meter breaststroke (and at the time, he set a world record), and the Great Britain swimming team won the silver medal in the men’s 4 × 100 meter medley relay race.
