Michael Phelps Pens Sweet Anniversary Message to His Fiancee Nicole Johnson

Instagram

Somehow we don't think that sad face is for real.

Michael Phelps celebrated nine years with his fiancée, Nicole Johnson, on Sunday, sharing a sweet and funny photo on Instagram to commemorate the occasion.

The snap, which shows the 31-year-old Olympic gold medalist pulling a faux sad face as Johnson kisses him, was captioned with a lovely message.

"So thankful to have met my better half 9 years ago today!" the swimming champ wrote. "I love you so much @nicole.m.johnson .... So happy to be able to call you my best friend! And I'm looking forward to the future and watching our amazing healthy little boy @boomerrphelps grow!!"

Johnson penned her own sweet message to Phelps on her Instagram page, writing, "9 years ago today you walked into my life @m_phelps00 who knew through all the ups and downs that 9 years later we would have started to build our family ? I love you and I can't wait for what our future holds!!"

Johnson, 30, is a former Miss California, and has been engaged to Phelps since 2015. They have one child together, a son named Boomer.

And even though baby Boomer is just two months old, he’s already hitting the pool with his Olympian dad!
