Ryan Lochte’s estranged wife, Kayla Reid Lochte, is alleging that the decorated Olympic swimmer did drugs in front of their kids, according to court documents filed in their ongoing divorce proceedings. The documents allege the six-time gold medal-winning swimmer inhaled nitrous oxide in front of one of their three children, and his estranged wife, a Florida-based real estate agent who filed for divorce in March, found “mostly empty baggies of cocaine” around their home, including in one of their kids’ bedrooms and one of their kids’ bathrooms. In addition, she claims the former swimmer, 41, drove their children to school while intoxicated. The documents, Us Weekly reports, make the shocking claims about Lochte as his estranged wife, 34, seeks full custody of their three children, Caiden, 8, Liv, 6, and Georgia, 2. Locthe denied the allegations to Us Weekly. “As I acknowledged earlier this week, after my car accident in 2023, I fell into a cycle of depression that led to substance abuse,” Lochte said. “I am not denying that I used drugs in my home, but I adamantly deny ever using drugs in front of or around my children, and I have never driven them while intoxicated.” The 12-time Olympic medalist said in a Saturday Instagram post that he has been sober for 54 days and had checked himself into a Florida rehab.
