It’s official! 12-time Olympic medalist Ryan Lochte will be tying the knot with Kayla Rae Reid after he popped the question in Los Angeles on Sunday night. Lochte posted a picture with his fiancee to instagram, showing off the new diamond ring on her finger.
Since they first met on Tinder, Reid has been posting glimpses of her relationship with Lochte through social media over the past few months, sharing videos of the couple working out together with their fans. She even traveled to Rio to support Lochte, where he won an Olympic gold medal as part of Team USA’s 800 free relay.

Since Lochte left Rio, Reid has stuck by his side in light of the gas station scandal that resulted in a 10-month suspension handed to him by USA Swimming.
It appears life outside of the water is going well for Lochte, as he’s newly engaged and currently making national headlines as a contestant on ABC’s Dancing With The Stars. Last week, Lochte advanced to the next round of DWTS with his partner Cheryl Burke. He’ll be taking the stage again tomorrow night to see if he’ll get to advance to week 6.
Even though he isn’t swimming, Lochte has still been spending some time around the pool. He recently took a break from a dance practice to help coach an elementary school swim team.

Iam happy for Ryan Lochte & Kayla Rae Reid I with them all the best.
Iam so happy for Ryan Lochte & Kayla Rae Reid they are so happy and in love you can tell that they are both happy they both are awesome amazing good people and are a cute couple.
Nice pull guy!
What a guy !
Two big problems I see are Ryan’s conversation skills and then neither of them really have jobs. They are trying the Kardashian method to fame but it rarely works. Can a swimmer really make it as a celebrity? His interviews are really bad. I would vote the under on 2 years.
Congratulations! You truly deserve it ! Wish you nothing but the best in the years ahead, filled with contentment and happiness! You have truly been in inspiration for me to learn how to swim and try to conquer my fear of the water. I totally understand and can relate to what happened to you in Rio and your return thereafter. It is in times like these you get to really know who your true friends really are! Kayla easily fits into this category. I have no doubts that you will have a devoted spouse forever and that both you and Kayla will live up to the nuptials you pledge and that you will be there for each other in sickness… Read more »
Douglas you really have been in to the honey cake .Was it the medieval recipe laced with Meade?
Am I the only one that remembers when he got interviewed at the Olympics and they asked him if he had a girlfriend and he said no? I remember it so much because he had posted pictures with her even before trials but denied being in a relationship in Rio.
Maybe they wanted to keep their relationship private to keep all the gossip mongers away.
Did you ever think of that?
No, he said he was single AND had been spotted with numerous other girls since their relationship allegedly began, even once after Rio.
He said he decided she was “the one” after she supported him during the scandal while his other friends became distant. I know that sounds great but…
… I noticed she gave so many interviews about their relationship during the Olympics while he claimed to be single. So she obviously did not want privacy. I also remember an article about Lochte during Rio where the Daily Mail just happened to catch him visiting her alone at night on some isolated street, looking like he was trying to avoid recognition in a baseball cap. My instant thought… Read more »
That is what I thought she she Kayla rae Reid went to go see him Ryan Lochte in Rio .
How long have they been together??? A few months??? Didn’t she model for play boy??
I get pvdh,s drift when he/she says it,s will last less than a year. Over here we have a habit of having bets on when “American” celebrity marriages will crash and burn because we feel divorce is part of American culture. Don’t know whether the 50% divorce rate is real or a myth.
With no fault divorce, marriages ” the vows” mean nothing so I,m very sceptical. So we,ll be having bets on how long lochte,s marriage will last.
We did bet on Phelps. I said 6 years max. I may be wrong tho.
The divorce rate in Europe must have caught up with Usa lately …just check
