Ryan told People on Thursday that he feels it’s “the right next step” for them, adding: “Everything I’ve done over the last 10 months has been about my kids and becoming the best father I can be for them. That meant doing the work - going to rehab, rededicating my life to Christ, going to therapy and making changes that put my children first. Because of that growth, I’m grateful to now have my kids 50% of the time.” The swimmer shares 8-year-old son Caiden , 6-year-old daughter Liv , and 2-year-old daughter Georgia with Kayla. She is currently battling Ryan for full custody of the kids, claiming her estranged husband used drugs in front of their children . While Ryan admitted to using them in the home, he denied ever doing so around the little ones. Now, he says he put in the work to get to a better place - and take things to a whole new level with Molly.

Together, we’re a family of six kids. She’s my best friend, our kids have formed an incredible bond, and it became clear that being together under one roof was the right next step for all of us. We needed a bigger home to support our blended family, and we’re focused on creating a loving, stable environment for all of our children.” We wonder how Kayla feels about Ryan and Molly moving in together with all the kids.
