Kayla Rae Reid and Ryan Lochte

Our next couple met each other through digital means. Kayla Rae Reid and Ryan Lochte prove that “sliding into DMs” can work out and even turn into a solid partnership. The pair first met on Instagram back in 2016. It was Lochte who initiated things, sending Reid a message via the platform. At the time, Reid was living and working as a model in Los Angeles, while Lochte lived in North Carolina.

Even from the beginning, there had been a strong connection between them. Lochte confesses that after their first, very brief, meeting they ended up talking for eight hours straight and began dating the next day. No use delaying what was inevitable, right? They have been married for two years and have had two kids since. While there have been challenges along the way, the degree of love between them helps this couple overcome it all.
