Troubled Australian swimmer Grant Hackett has found a friend in Stephanie Rice.
The former Olympian, who recently attended rehab in the US for sleeping pill addiction, is said to have grown close to the recently retired fellow swimmer.
A report in Woman’s Day this week claims it’s common knowledge inside swimming circles that the pair have become very tight.
An insider told the magazine that the 33-year-old father of two, who separated from wife Candice Alley last year, is ‘Stephanie’s type to a tee’.
‘They’re made for each other,’ the source claimed.
