Who is Patricio Pitbull’s Wife? Kids, Family & More About the UFC Debutant

Many thought the day would never come but against all odds, it finally has. Patricio Pitbull has left Bellator and is in the UFC. Donn Davis and PFL brass’ bungling of the promotion after taking it over in 2023 means they lost the man widely considered the greatest ever Bellator fighter. But PFL-Bellator’s loss was UFC’s gain, where the MMA legend signed in early 2025.

Now he is jumping straight into the deep end, making his UFC debut against #5 ranked Yair Rodriguez at UFC 314 on June 12. And in his metaphorical corner, as always, will be his wife and kids, who have supported him throughout his illustrious MMA career. 

Meet Teresa Silva, Patricio Pitbull’s wife

Patricio keeps his personal life rather private. But we do know that he is happily married. While we do not know many details about his wife, we know that her name is Teresa Silva Freire. Based upon her Instagram bio, she is a trained psychologist and works for the Brazilian pharmaceutical manufacturer and supplier, Unifarma, in an administrative role.

Except for that, we do not really know anything about Teresa except, perhaps, that she is a loving and supportive wife. She does feature in a fair few of Patricio’s Instagram posts, where the couple are the picture of marital bliss. Another regular feature of the Brazilian former champ’s Instagram posts are the children the couple have.

How many kids does Patricio Pitbull have?

At the moment, the Freires have two young and adorable children, both boys, named Davi and Miguel. Davi is the older one of the two. He was born in 2015, and would be around ten as of April 2025. We can infer that he almost definitely goes to school (unless the couple are homeschooling him), but we do not know much else except that about him. 

What we do know is that Davi is apparently a big fan of Marvel’s superhero The Hulk, since he had a Hulk-themed birthday party in 2020. Miguel, the younger son was born in 2020, and is around five at the moment. Whether he shares his brother’s love for The Hulk, or his father’s love for fighting, however, remains unknown as of yet. 

Unfortunately, not everything has been perfect for the couple as far as their children are concerned, as they lost a child previously to a miscarriage. But the couple powered through that adversity and their relationship looks strong as ever. What do you think about Patricio Pitbull’s family?
