Émilie-Joane Heymans (born December 14, 1981) is a Canadian diver. Born in Brussels, Belgium and raised in Greenfield Park (now Longueuil), a suburb of Montreal, she started diving in 1993, at age 11. She is currently being coached in Pointe-Claire, Québec by Yihua Li. Emilie made her international debut at the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney with Anne Montminy, were they won a silver medal in the 10m synchronized diving event. Emilie then set her sights on the 10m platform and became the 2003 World Champion in Barcelona. At the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens, Emilie proved herself again in the 10m synchronized diving event when she, along with her teammate Blythe Hartley, took home the bronze medal. Emilie Heymans won the silver medal at the Beijing 2008 Olympics in the 10m individual event and marked herself as an outstanding diver in both individual and synchronized diving events, winning medals in three consecutive Olympics, achieved by only four other Canadian Olympians. In 2009 Emilie won the silver medal at the World Championships in Rome making a successful transition from the 10M platform to the 3M springboard. In 2011 at the World championships in Shanghai, Émilie with her partner Jennifer Abel, won the silver medal in the 3m synchro event.
