Behind Michael Phelps and family's photoshoot
City Lifestyle magazine released some behind-the-scenes videos on Instagram of the Phelps family from their photoshoot which featured in their February 2024 edition. They also interviewed the Olympian swimmer and revealed how Michael and Nicole Phelps spend time with their kids.
On February 12, the magazine shared a video that showcased the Phelps posing for the camera. The caption carried the words of the couple from the interview:
"Weekends are kid-focused and soccer-centric so it's all about the game-day shuffle. We also enjoy spending time in our backyard together. We're homebodies by nature. Home with our family is our happy place. 🏡"
Nicole also opened up about having her fourth child, who was born just after the family was featured in the magazine's Paradise Valley, Arizona edition, where the family lives. She revealed that her latest pregnancy wasn't planned and it was an unexpected surprise for them.
"We originally wanted three kids, but life has a way of presenting moments that make us pause, recognize, and reassess," said Nicole. "We must be flexible and adapt to unexpected life occurrences."
She further added,
"I wasn’t sure what life would be like, it’s like a puzzle piece we didn’t know was missing."
Be it swimming safety, mental health concerns, or spending quality time with the kids, Michael Phelps and Nicole Phelps are evidently taking all the right measures as role models for their children and sports fans around the world.
