Michael Phelps and his wife Nicole Phelps have announced a pending addition to the Phelps family with a post on Instagram just one day short of making the world wonder if it was an April Fool’s joke.
The couple welcomed their first child, Boomer Robert Phelps, on May 5, 2016 just before Phelps’ standout performance at U.S. Olympic Team Trials that landed him a spot on his fifth United States Olympics Team. Beckett Richard Phelps was born on February 13, 2018. The couple has not yet announced if they are expected a boy or a girl. Phelps’ Instagram captain read: “#3 on the way! Can’t wait to see the journey that this takes us on!!! #luckyman #obyorgirl? #P3”
Phelps is the most decorated Olympic athlete in history. He has won more gold medals, and overall Olympic medals, than any athlete in any sport in history, with 23 gold and 28 total medals. His wife Nicole, formerly Johnson, was Miss California USA 2010.
Wow, Nicole. – These 3 babies are so close in age. Isnt she still breastfeeding Beckett?? So hope you have a girl this time.
All I want is a full-Phelps relay. So either we need 4 boys of the next two to be girls. Come on one more!!!
Nicole said on Facebook a while ago that she wanted 3, so you could be out of luck.
It’s gonna be a boy and his name will be Bolo. Turns out Michael Phelps has been watching a lot of old kung fu movies since he retired.

April Fools. Didn’t he pull this joke two years ago?
No more reporting until he beats 8 babies… 3 is rather pedestrian
He really is spawning the full relay
8 and under NAGs on record watch
And the population boom continues
