Ryan Lochte is thanking his lucky stars! According to new reports, the Olympic swimmer and his estranged wife, Kayla Reid, have narrowly escaped foreclosure on their Florida home after working out a deal with their neighborhood HOA.

Lochte has been the topic of conversation for the last year, as he’s been in the middle of a nasty divorce with Reid, who, by the way, accused him of having illicit drugs in front of their minor children and of cheating on her with his new girlfriend, Molly Gillihan.

And speaking of Gillihan, she recently became engaged to Ryan Lochte, who proposed to her at a fancy restaurant in Gainesville, Florida.

Lochte and Reid will not lose their home, as TMZ reported that the estranged couple has reached a settlement with the Fletcher Park Owners’ Association.

Don’t forget, The Blast reported on Lochte and Reid’s financial troubles last year, including the lawsuit the HOA filed against the pair, claiming that they failed to pay nearly $4,000 in associated fees.

While the details of the new deal remain unknown, Lochte and Reid can rest easy knowing that their nearly 3,000-square-foot home won’t be snatched out from under them.

According to a previous report from The Blast, Lochte and Reid were facing even more financial woes last year, including a reported $99,000 in back taxes owed to the IRS for the years 2021 and 2022.

Adding to the drama, a nonprofit named Shands Teaching Hospital and Clinic filed a $127,000 lien against the former couple, accusing Lochte of failing to pay for services he reportedly received while spending days in their care.

And to make matters worse, the nonprofit organization also requested an additional $40,000 for treatment Lochte allegedly received in February 2024.

The news about Lochte and Reid’s Florida home comes a year after the latter filed for divorce from the 41-year-old. She opened up about her decision in a candid Instagram post, telling her hundreds of thousands of followers that she had reached it after much thought.

“Sometimes we face trials we didn’t choose or see coming. And in those moments, we’re forced to make the hardest decisions to protect our peace, our children, and our future. I’ve come to the understanding that staying isn’t always the most loving decision someone can make. For me, leaving was an act of love — for those around me and for myself,” she said.

Since announcing their plans to split, Reid has accused the swimmer of alarming behavior, including drug use and cheating. During an episode of her “The Comeback Era” podcast, she appeared to throw shade at Lochte and his new relationship with Gillihan, stating that the pair had been together well before she filed for divorce.

“Well, your technically still-husband is already living with his girlfriend,” Reid’s co-host said about Lochte’s new partner after calling her Lochte’s “mistress.”

Reid replied, saying she was happy for Lochte and adding that the pair have known each other for “many years.”

Lochte clapped back in a statement to PEOPLE, saying, “I absolutely was not faithful to my ex-wife. And I have no excuse but to continue to say I have grown and learned so much from my past and I am working on myself and my character every single day.”

He added, “I love Molly and the family we have so much and it breaks my heart to see Molly dragged into this because never, not one time, did Molly and I have any sort of inappropriate relationship while I was with Kayla. I reached out to Molly after I was served divorce papers and living on my own.”

Lochte’s love for Gillihan is something serious, according to The Blast, as the swimmer recently popped the big question at a Florida eatery.

Lochte reportedly surprised Gillihan with an overflow of flowers and a letter containing the question. “She immediately started crying and said, ‘What took you so long?’” Lochte said.
