Earlier this week, we introduced you to Megan Rossee, Olympic swimmer Michael Phelps' L.A.-based girlfriend.
But no sooner has Rossee made her introduction to the world then she immediately gets left behind; not permanently, but Phelps did decide to go celebrate his Olympic victory sans his lady friend. According to TMZ, he's headed to the Maldives with a bunch of his (male) homies.
Oh well, she still wins for the tweet heard round the world.
