Describing Paris 2024 Olympic experience as "a once in a lifetime" moment, Helle reflects on the more than ten years of dedication it took to achieve this dream. "The Paris 2024 Olympics will forever be the highlight of my life, and I will always be grateful for the experience," she shared.

Helle’s "first and biggest role model," is her sister and diving Tokyo Olympian Anne Tuxen who laid the foundation for her success. The two sisters trained side by side for a decade under the guidance of their parents, who doubled as their coaches. "Me and Anne had the same training plan and schedule for 10 years." Their bond extended beyond Norway ­­- Anne’s decision to attend university in the United States also influenced Helle’s choice to study and train there as they shared a deep connection both in and out of the water.

For the Tananger-Norway native watching the 27-year-old sister compete at the Tokyo Olympics on the 10m diving platform "It was bittersweet to see Anne going by herself because our dream was to go together," she says but seeing her older sibling on the world stage pushed Helle to work even harder. "It was a proud moment as a younger sister watching Anne putting our nation and our name on the map. It made me work harder with a lot more guidance."

The Norwegian Tuxen family is a diving family-driven passion. "My family would gather to share diving knowledge, learn from YouTube videos, and observe coaches from other countries - fostered the love for the sport," Helle explains, acknowledging that her parents and siblings were crucial in getting her and her sister Anne to the Olympic Games.
