Cody Simpson has given fans a rare glimpse into his relationship with Emma McKeon.
The Australian singer-turned-swimmer, who revealed that he was returning to music earlier this month, opened up about his three-year relationship with the Olympian in an interview with 9Honey.
‘She’s a rock in my life,’ the 28-year-old said of his girlfriend.
‘Anyone who has that in life is lucky.’
He went on: ‘We bonded through something so specific and special in swimming, but now, living and navigating life after it and doing all different kinds of things, it’s been a really fun journey.’
Cody and Emma first met in the Australian swimming circuit.

Their relationship reportedly began blossoming during training camps and competitions as part of the national team.
The pair went public in July 2022, with Cody praising Emma’s influence on his transition to professional swimming.
Both have supported each other at major events, including the 2022 Commonwealth Games, where Emma achieved record-breaking success.
They’ve also been spotted enjoying downtime together, from beach outings to attending social events and loved-up dates in romantic locations around the world.
Cody recently spoke about marriage potentially being on the cards.
‘We have something that is beautiful and honest and pure,’ Simpson said, adding that marriage was possible down the line.
‘When something means enough to you and family does and will mean that much to me, it will always be a part of the picture,’ he added.
Cody moved to Los Angeles in 2010 to record music with Atlantic Records, cutting albums at Village Studios in West Los Angeles and performing at the Malibu Guitar Festival and The Troubadour in recent years.
‘She’s a rock in my life,’ he said of his girlfriend
He put his music career on hold to try and earn a place at the Paris Olympics with the Australian swimming team, but was ultimately unsuccessful and has returned to performing.
‘All you can do is everything you can to take what you’ve been given as far as you can take it,’ he wrote at the time.
‘You owe yourself the honour of cultivating your talents with as much fervour and intensity as you can.
‘The privilege of becoming what you’re capable of becoming.
‘I left nothing to the unknown these past 4 years and I can now rest knowing I put my pedal to the floor every day and covered every other little detail to take this as far as it could go and it sure went a hell of a ways.’
