Summary
Molly Gillihan said she did not start dating Ryan Lochte until after Kayla Rae Reid filed for divorce last spring, rejecting Reid's claim that she pursued him behind her back.
Gillihan told TMZ that Lochte was no longer living at home when they met and said, "I did not break up your marriage," directly rebutting the "homewrecker" label.
The dispute follows Reid's recent People interview, which described Gillihan as a former friend who DMed and dated her husband during the marriage.
Lochte has largely stayed out of the public back-and-forth; he is now engaged to Gillihan, has moved from Gainesville to Missouri, and is coaching college swimmers while his divorce remains central to the feud.
