"Dancing with the Stars" Season 23 will see the addition of the Olympian Ryan Lochte to its casting. Three other stars who are confirmed to join the show are Kenneth Babyface Edmonds, Terra Jole and Amber Rose.

Lochte is reportedly going to join the dance floor of "Dancing with the Stars" Season 23. However, his addition to the cast has not been announced publicly yet so the source spoke on condition of anonymity, USA Today Sports reported.

The news about Lochte's addition to "Dancing with the Stars" Season 23 casts came shortly after the Olympic swimmer has been dropped by four sponsors in 2016 Rio Olympics. This is after authorities in Rio de Janeiro announced in a press conference that he had fabricated a report. Reportedly, he was held up at gunpoint by men dressed as police officers along with his three teammates from the United States swim team.

Meanwhile, the legendary musician and producer Edmonds is also reportedly joining the dancing competition show. Edmonds, who had written and produced over 26 number one R&B hits and has won 11 Grammy Awards, was confirmed to be joining "Dancing with the Stars" Season 23 by multiple sources, E! Online reported.

In addition, reality star Jole has reportedly signed on for "Dancing with the Stars" Season 23. Jole just recently welcomed her son Grayson with husband Joe Gnoffo on Aug. 1. Jole's eldest kid is a 17-month-old daughter named Penelope.

Rose, on the other hand, was the first star named who will be joining "Dancing with the Stars" Season 23. She currently hosts her own late night talk show called "The Amber Rose Show." Rose is also known to be a model, an author, and a mother to 3-year-old son named Sebastian.

"Dancing with the Stars" Season 23 casting has not been confirmed by ABC though. The official cast announcement is reportedly scheduled to be made on Aug. 30 on "Good Morning America." Watch the "Dancing with the Stars" Season 23 promo here.
