Michael Phelps' family
In 2016, Phelps and his longtime partner Nicole Johnson were married. Before beginning their relationship, the pair dated for six years.
They first met in 2007, and after getting to know one another for two years, they began dating in 2009. In 2016, the couple wed in a romantic private ceremony. Notably, Michael's wife was Miss California Teenager's runner-up and a former model.
Phelps focused on becoming a full-time husband and parent after giving up his Olympic swimming career.
His family is larger than simply his wife and children, though. The good news for animal lovers is that the renowned swimmer does own pets and plenty of them.
Michael Phelps' swimming career
The illustrious swimmer, Michael Phelps, has one of the finest sporting careers. He was able to win more Olympic medals than any other athlete in history, which has two implications.
First off, it implied that he was arguably more skilled than anyone who had played his or her sport before or after him.
Additionally, it indicates that he played for a considerable amount of time. Michael Phelps wouldn't have won as many medals if he had initially retired after the 2012 Summer Olympics.
In 2000, he started his career by getting ready for the Olympics. He then met the requirements, making the American squad at the youngest age in the last 68 years.
Following the 2016 Summer Olympics, Phelps announced his retirement from competitive athletics. He won five golds and one silver medal that year, which was impressive for a swimmer who had passed the peak of his career.
