The couple has been in an on-again, off-again relationship for years. Johnson first dated the athlete in 2011 when he was competing in the FINA World Championships. Phelps and the former beauty queen reunited this past summer and he shared a picture of Johnson at his family's Thanksgiving dinner following his publicized stint in rehab.
