Who is Max Holloway’s wife? Is the former UFC Featherweight Champion a father? These are questions we aim to answer in this article as we take an in-depth look into the personal and private life of MMA phenom Max Holloway.

Who Is Max Holloway’s Wife?

Although MMA fans get excited every time Max Holloway steps foot in the UFC octagon, they are also curious as to who he is dating too. Here at SportsCasting we can reveal that Max Holloway is happily married to his wife Alessa.

The former UFC Featherweight Champion tied the knot with Mrs Holloway back in April 2022. Prior to their wedding, Max and Alessa were said to have been dating for around two years.

Like her UFC fighter husband, Alessa is from Hawaii and is a surfer by trade. Her Instagram tag is @alessaquinton. It is unknown how the pair met, but they instantly hit it off and began dating in 2020. Two years later, they got married and have enjoyed a loving and fruitful marriage ever since.

As Max Holloway’s wife, Alessa might not have to work full-time, given the fact her husband earns millions of dollars through fighting. She may well have a job, but if she does it is likely part-time as she cares for her husband when he is home and runs the house whilst ‘Blessed’ is away in training camp.

Both Holloway and his wife Alessa share regular snaps on their social media platforms with each other. It is great to see that not only is the former UFC featherweight king winning inside the octagon, but he is certainly winning outside of the cage too!

Before meeting Alessa, Max Holloway was previously married to his ex-wife Kaimana Pa’aluhi. Holloway’s son Rush is with his ex-wife, whom he divorced in 2017 after getting married five years prior. That part of Holloway’s life is behind him, as he enjoys his new relationship with Alessa and continues to be a loving father to his son.

Do Max Holloway & Wife Alessa Have Any Children?

Not only is Max Holloway a loving husband and partner to his wife Alessa, but he is a father too. The Hawaiian MMA phenom became a father around 11/12 years ago, perhaps even more. However, Holloway’s son isn’t with Alessa, he is from a previous marriage with his ex-wife Kaimana Pa’aluhi.

The former UFC 145-pound champion has said in countless interviews that being a father is his biggest achievement in life. Fighting in the octagon and being a mixed martial artist is all for his family. Earning a good living to set his family up for life. Holloway really is the ultimate family man and loves his son and now wife Alessa dearly.

Max Holloway’s son is called Rush, and is around 12-years-old now. Although Holloway’s wife Alessa isn’t Rush’s actual mother, they are said to have a happy relationship and all get on extremely well. It is clear that family life is incredibly important to both Max and Alessa.
