LOS ANGELES, August 14, 2012 – American international swimmer and 11-time Olympic medalist Ryan Lochte will make his first-ever TV series appearance in an upcoming episode of 90210.

Fresh off of his five medal wins from the 2012 London Olympics, Lochte will make a cameo as a guest at a resort where Naomi and Max are staying to strengthen their relationship in an episode of 90210 to air Monday, Oct. 29 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on The CW. 

“When we found out Ryan Lochte was going to be in town and might appear on 90210, we felt like we'd won a gold medal! Team USA are all-stars in our book, and we're so excited he's making an appearance on the show.  We only wish the episode was a surf event so we could have gotten him in the water, but he deserves a little rest on dry land,” said Executive Producers Patti Carr and Lara Olsen.
