Ryan Lochte reality show

Ryan Lochte is set to star in a new reality show on the E! network called “What Would Ryan Lochte Do?”

The 28-year-old Olympic champion swimmer has signed on for a six-episode docu-series which will track the gold-medalist as he parties, trains in preparation for the 2016 Olympics, builds his fashion line, deals with his family and friends, and searches for “the one.”

“Ryan Lochte captured everyone’s attention at the Summer Olympics with his athletic prowess and his utterly unique and unaffected approach to life,” the President of E! Entertainment, Suzanne Kolb, said in the statement. “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.”

“What Would Ryan Lochte Do?” is scheduled to air on E! in April.
