T.J. Dillashaw Is LIving Happily With His Wife Rebecca Dillashaw, Do They Have Children? Know about His Married Life

UFC stars are not known to be very open about their personal lives - rarely do they talk expressively about their personal lives in the media. However, the constant spotlight means most information are inevitably spilled.

The MMA star T.J. Dillashaw is living a blissful married life with his gorgeous spouse. They apparently dated for a long time before embracing each other as life partners.

The couple was reportedly together for a long time before exchanging wedding vows. Three years after their stunning wedding, the lovebirds announced they were expecting a baby boy via social media in June 2017.

On 28th September 2017, the duo welcomed a brand new member to their family, a son named Bronson Jack Dillashaw. Recently the couple celebrated their four years anniversary.

Earlier, T.J. celebrated his honeymoon with Rebecca in Mexico. It's not sure precisely where the wedding took place, but it's possible the ceremony happened in Mexico too as he shared photos of some of his family members there.

The couple dated several years prior to embracing each other as life partners. Apparently, both of them graduated from the same college, so it's a likely possibility the pair first met each other during their college days.

This delightful couple does not claim to have only 3 members in their family since the duo shares a Cane Corso named Smokey, two French Bulldogs named Bunny and Cash, and one Pekinese named Mijo.

Rebecca has a private Instagram account where she mostly dresses Frenchies in cowboy costumes for photos. T.J. himself is a very secretive personality as well. He is rarely ever known to speak about his personal life to the media.

On a rare occasion, the UFC star did speak about his wife, it was Valentine's Day 2017 where he paid a tribute to Rebecca talking her up as a strong woman. T.J. further expressed how lucky he is to have such a woman in his life. 

Although the pair is not too vocal about their married life, particularly in recent days, the little that's been spilled so far looks to be enough to conclude they are enjoying a blissful married life.

Despite his busy professional career, he always manages time for his lovely wife and child. He is active on Instagram where he shares his family portraits with his fans.

On 4th November 2017 at UFC 2017, Dillashaw faced Cody Brandt with the title on the line. He defeated Brandt via knockout to regain the UFC Bantamweight Championship. This win earned him his fifth performance of the Night bonus award.
