Olympic Swimmer Ryan Lochte Lands Reality Show On E!

Ryan Lochte is about to make a splash on Reality TV. Forgive the swimming pun, I couldn't resist. I would also accept 'Diving into reality TV,' 'Dipping his feet into reality TV,' or 'hopes to strike ratings Gold on TV.'

Ryan Lochte is about to make a splash on Reality TV. Forgive the swimming pun, I couldn’t resist. I would also accept ‘Diving into reality TV,’ ‘Dipping his feet into reality TV,’ or ‘hopes to strike ratings Gold on TV.’

Six-episodes of “What Would Ryan Lochte Do?” begin airing in April.

In addition to preparing for the 2016 Rio Olympics, the 28-year-old swimmer is developing his fashion line, and looking for love.

“Ryan Lochte captured everyone’s attention at the Summer Olympics with his athletic prowess and his utterly unique and unaffected approach to life,” says E! Entertainment President Suzanne Kolb.  “He is an incredibly endearing personality who is sexy, entertaining and fun. Watching this show, I believe people will fall into three categories: they want to be him, sleep with him or mother him.”

Lochte’s mother  two older married sisters Kristen and younger brother will also appear on the show.

Lochte’s agent Erika Wright is also executive producer of the show.
