Overview

  • Kayla Reid Lochte filed for divorce in March after seven years of marriage, describing the union as “irretrievably broken.”
  • In her petition she requests sole parental responsibility, majority time-sharing of their three children and exclusive use of their Gainesville home.
  • Ryan Lochte has formally contested Kayla’s claims by denying her status as the primary caregiver and opposing her demands for support.
  • Court documents show nearly $100,000 in unpaid taxes and over $167,000 in hospital bills tied to Lochte’s near-fatal 2023 car crash.
  • A source close to the family alleges repeated infidelity and an identity crisis contributed to the split even as both parties insist on co-parenting.
