Kayla Rae Reid publicly confirmed that she had made the difficult decision to end her seven-year marriage to Ryan Lochte. The announcement came after divorce filings became public, and subsequent reporting noted that the proceedings involved disputes over finances and other family-related issues.

Kayla Rae Reid filed for divorce from Olympic swimmer Ryan Lochte in Gainesville, Florida, ending their marriage that began in 2018 after meeting on Instagram in 2016 and getting engaged later that year. The couple, who share three children—Caiden (born 2017), Liv (born 2019), and Georgia June (born 2023)—had maintained a relatively private family life amid Lochte's career. Reid, now focusing on her real estate career and wellness, shared an Instagram post stating 'Time to exhale' shortly after the filing gained public attention.

In an interview published in February 2026, Kayla Reid said she and Ryan Lochte were "not in a good place" and were trying to keep interaction to a minimum while the divorce remained unresolved. She also said she wanted the divorce finalized, indicating the separation was still ongoing at that time.
