Olympics legend Michael Phelps and his wife, Nicole Johnson, welcomed their second baby into the world Monday.
Phelps and Johnson, both 32 years old, announced the exciting news Tuesday evening, sharing photos with newborn boy Beckett Richard Phelps in the arms of his mama and older brother, Boomer.
“Magical moments yesterday,” Phelps wrote on social media. “…We had a healthy baby boy and a healthy mama. I truly do feel like the happiest man in the world. Being able to build our family to now 4 (6 with doggies) is so incredible!”
Johnson was also delighted to announce the new addition to the family.
“I’m surrounded by boys and I couldn’t be happier,” Johnson wrote on Instagram.
The swimming champ and his wife revealed they were expecting their second child in August through a series of Instagram photos featuring Boomer holding a positive pregnancy test.
The couple waited until after the Rio Olympics to share the news they had secretly married in June 2016.
