"She said yes!!!!" Phelps, 29, posted on his Facebook page,
along with a picture of him and Johnson playing in the snow.
Phelps' former Olympic teammate Allison Schmitt snapped the
photo of Johnson and Phelps. A second picture Schmitt posted to
her own Instagram account showed a beaming Johnson, 29, with a
ring.
Phelps, a Maryland native, won 22 Olympic medals, 18 of them
golds. He is eyeing a spot on the 2016 Olympic team.
USA Swimming suspended him for six months following his
September arrest in Maryland for drunken driving, and he pleaded
guilty in December. Phelps also pleaded guilty in 2004 to
driving under the influence of alcohol.
