The former Miss California USA Nicole Johnson is the loving wife of Olympic gold medalist, Michael Phelps. She and her husband, Michael, have welcomed two adorable children together.
Gorgeous couple: Nicole and Michael had an on-again and off-again relationship for eight years before tying their knot in 2016. The couple, who met in 2007 at the ESPY Awards where Michael was presenting the show and Nicole was an usher, didn’t start dating until 2009.
Reportedly, they broke off in 2011, before the 2012 Summer Olympic and remained on good terms, but, the two rekindled their relationship in 2014 and were already engaged by 2015. Their first child together, a son named Boomer Robert Phelps, was born in May 2016, prior to their private wedding next month.
Now, they are the proud parent of two as they recently welcomed their second child, again a son named Beckett Richard Phelps in February 2018.
