While Ryan Lochte’s 2012 Olympic haul includes two gold medals, two silvers and a bronze, it’s not clear whether he’ll be able to save their Florida home from foreclosure.

Steven and Ileana Lochte, now divorced, reportedly stopped making payments on their $258,000 mortgage in February 2011. CitiMortgage suing to foreclose on the property, which has a remaining balance of $242,239.

Apparently, the swimmer did not even know about the financial status of the familial home. In a recent interview Ileana Lochte summed up the situation.

“I just got divorced, and I had lost my job and we’re trying to work it out,” she said. “I’m sad that the press thinks this is something to do with Ryan. We didn’t discuss this with Ryan or any of my children, really. I would never allow him to help us.”
