Who is Kristian Prenga’s girlfriend as Anthony Joshua is set to fight him?

Anthony Joshua is set to fight Kristian Prenga on July 25 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

On January 8 2026, Anthony Joshua took to Instagram and wrote: “Thank you for all the love and care you have shown my brothers. I didn’t even realise how special they are. I’ll just be walking with them and cracking jokes with them, not even knowing God kept me in the presence of great men. 100% it’s tough for me, but I know it’s even tougher for their parents ❤️ I have a strong mind, and I believe God knows their hearts. May God have mercy on my brothers 🙏🏾.”

Heavyweight boxer Anthony Joshua was a passenger in a vehicle which collided with a truck near Lagos in Nigeria on December 29, 2025. His close friends and team members Sina Ghami and Latif “Latz” Ayodele were killed in the crash.

Anthony Joshua spoke publicly in a social media video about the loss and said: "We went back home, went to see our families and everything just got flipped upside on its head.”

He also said: "That was such an unforeseen circumstance, that was out of all our control.

"Not only did their parents, their uncles, their cousins, their friends and myself lose two great men, we lost people that we dearly care about and have been major players in all of our lives."

He continued: "It's tough. It's really tough. I'm not going to sit here and show all of my emotions. I know in today's day and age it's easy to micro-analyse people and pass judgement. I know what I feel and that's what matters to me. I know what my duty is. They're my brothers, they're my friends, first and foremost.”
