At the basketball contest between Team USA and Nigeria on August 7, the 28-time Olympic medalist was observed with his wife and their youngest son.
Michael Phelps is an American Olympic swimmer. He has accompanied his infant son to his inaugural Olympic basketball competition.
The 39-year-old Olympic medalist, who has won 28 medals, was observed supporting the women’s basketball team of Team USA with his wife Nicole and their youngest son, Nico, who is six months old. Boomer, 8, Beckett, 6, and Maverick, 4, are also the offspring of Michael and Nicole.
The three were captured in a photograph on the margins of the contest between Team USA and Nigeria on Wednesday, August 7. The former emerged victorious over the latter with a final score of 88-74 and is now en route to the semi-finals, where they will face Australia.
Nico was attired in a petite T-shirt with patterned stars, blue shorts, and protective blue headphones, while the Phelps family was resplendent in red, white, and blue.
In the interim, Nicole, 39, had her manicures painted in three distinct colors on alternate nails. She was wearing a vibrant red shirt that bore the word “USA,” while Michael was sporting a blue cap that bore the same name.
The charming photographs depict both parents holding Nico in a standing position as he gazes out at the basketball court. They were situated adjacent to their lifelong acquaintance, Olympic swimmer Allison Schmitt.
Schmitt, 34, exclusively told that she’s “helping out Nicole and Michael with Nico” in Paris, adding, “I’m so happy I get my baby snuggles.”
