Who did Anthony Joshua have a child with? A look at AJ’s dating history ahead of boxing match

We know that Anthony Joshua can fight big rounds in the boxing ring as he is a former two-time unified world heavyweight champion, but fans are always wondering if he has put a ‘ring on it’.

AJ has had several relationships over his time in the spotlight as well as numerous romance rumours circulating over who he is going out with, but he is reportedly single at the time of writing.

Ahead of his boxing match on 1 April against American boxer Jermaine Franklin, PeopleWorld takes a look at AJ’s dating history:

Nicole Osbourne

In April 2016, Anthony Joshua shocked fans when he announced he had become a father to his ‘lil champ’ Joseph Bayley Temiloluwa Prince Joshua.

AJ shares his son with his high school sweetheart pole dancing instructor Nicole Osbourne who he has since been in an off-on relationship with.

It is understood that the couple parted ways for good the same year that Joseph was born, but AJ still bought a £500,000 flat for his baby momma in Finchley, London, where Nicole resides.

Cara Delevingne

The rumour mill started up concerning a relationship between model and actress Cara Delevingne and Anthony Joshua after the pair met at a basketball game in London’s O2 in 2014.

Following their introduction, the pair were said to exchange numbers and flirty messages but to no avail as Cara was too busy travelling while Anthony was training for upcoming fights.

Rita Ora

2014 was certainly a hot year for AJ as shortly after the speculation surrounding him and Cara aired, reports came out about a potential relationship between the boxer and singer Rita Ora.

Anthony allegedly caught Rita’s eye and they hit it off at a GQ Men’s party. However, it was once again seemingly more smoke than fire.

Maya Jama

Maya Jama was able to match couples together on this year’s Love Island, but was she successful in love with Anthony Joshua?

While Maya is known for her previous dating history with rapper Stormzy, when she took a picture of herself and Anthony during a shoot, fans jumped to the assumption that they had now entered a relationship, to which AJ responded:

“So I took a little picture with one of my friends…and it got blown out of proportion. Like, ‘Ohhhh, what’s he doing with her?’, but we were just working on a shoot. But then, 'It’s the bloggers job to blog, it’s the social media guy’s job to make good social content, it’s the internet guy’s job to make clickbait'. So people take it how they want.”
