It looks like the swimming superstars all made a pact to bring new babies into the world! After Michael Phelps shared photos of his bouncing tot, news has spread that swimmer Ryan Lochte is not far behind the star. Lochte who has had quite the year is ending things on a good note with exciting news!

According to JustJared, Ryan Lochte and his gorgeous fiancee Playboy model Kayla Rae Reid are expecting their first child together! The couple who has been dating since January are both elated and ready to become the best parents they can be.

The champion swimmer shared the excitement with fans and loved ones via Instagram as she posted a snapshot of him and his wife-to-be underwater as he kisses her stomach. Aww!

“My Christmas gift came early this year, can’t wait for next year! Best news I’ve ever received #CLOUD9 #excited #family #love #2017,” Ryan captioned the photo.

E! News reports that the swimmer has had quite the year. After leaving the 2016 Rio Olympics after the controversial situation with law enforcement, Lochte joined the cast of "Dancing With The Stars." Spending 8 weeks on the competition series, he was later eliminated from the competition. A few weeks after his exit, the swimmer proposed to his girlfriend during a private helicopter ride of Los Angeles.

"From the very first time I met her, everything has like clicked,'' Ryan shared with USA Today Sports. "That's why I know I can propose to her because everything that's happened and she's been keeping me so positive. She doesn't care about my fame. She doesn't care about anything. All she cares about is me being happy.

While the swimmer has had a rocky year, this news is the perfect way to end the year and jumpstart into 2017. We would like to send out a huge congratulations to the happy couple!
