Caeleb said, “The collab that I didn’t know I needed, Snoop Dogg at a swim meet at the Olympics holding my son, this sport has taken me to some great places and that is definitely one of them.” He also opened up about getting emotional over not medaling at two events in Paris, “I lost it, it was devastating, I was heartbroken, there’s not way around it. She gave me a hug and I couldn’t hold it in anymore. I knew I had a day off so I couldn’t keep it bottled up. It was devastating and I hope that would humanize the experience for athletes, there’s a lot of that goes on that’s not caught on camera.” Adding, “It was emotional and I needed to cry.” Caeleb also revealed the story behind his tattoos and revealed a secret one that he has inside his lip.
