The 23-time Olympic gold medalist met his now-wife in 2007 at the ESPY Awards, and they connected right away. At the time, Johnson was a pageant competitor and model, who would go on to become Miss California USA in 2010, and even place in the top 10 of the Miss USA finals that same year.
After dating on and off for a few years, the couple got engaged in 2015, and later wed in 2016, holding three separate ceremonies.
The parents are very happy to have a house full of boys. Johnson especially enjoys the dynamic and the family refers to her as the “queen of the household.”
“I think Nicole said something along the lines of, like, ‘I’m so lucky to have a house full of boys and no girls,’ and Boomer looked at her and said, ‘Mommy, you’re the girl in our house.’ So we’ve been saying that and it’s true, she’s the queen,” Phelps has said of Johnson.
