Last month, Simpson made a stunning admission about his future with McKeon, explaining that he and his superstar girlfriend will be entering uncharted territory after the 2024 Olympics in July.

“I deliberately put a brick wall on either side of it, in the sense that I will do something about it when the time comes,” he told News Corp.

‘But never in my life have I not known what’s next. Emma has never had a life without swimming.

“I know what it’s like, but she’s never had it, so I’m glad she’s exploring her other interests and that I have the time to do that because she never had it as a child.”

“I’m fortunate to be someone who has a lot of things to look forward to, and another passion and career that I can pursue again depending on what I decide from the pool.

“I don’t know yet what I’m going to do, but I’ll make that decision later this year.”
