Olympic gold medalist swimmer Michael Phelps says the reason why hid his marriage was to make it easier for his son and fiancee to travel to the Olympic games in Rio.
Phelps secretly married his fiancee, Nicole Johnson in June, after having the couple's first child a month earlier.
"We wanted to try to make it as smooth as we could for them to travel,” Phelps said, via USA Today. “It was small. It was our closest friends and family there. It was perfect.”
Phelps went on to win five gold medals and one silver in the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro.
