Muhammad Ali who had achieved unprecedented success in the ring, had a complex and evolving relationship with his children throughout his life. Ali had a total of nine children, seven daughters, and two sons, from his multiple marriages and relationships. Although Ali’s demanding boxing career and his growing fame often took him away from his family for extended periods. Despite this, he made efforts to spend quality time with his children whenever possible, and he tried to impart valuable life lessons to them.
He taught them the importance of determination, discipline, and standing up for what they believed in. This reportedly caused some conflict between him and Laila Ali. Laila Ali who dubbed herself as the rebel of the family, has previously shared how she rejected his faith as her beliefs didn’t lie there. However, Laila has previously shared that the advice she received from Ali when she was young was so good that she still sticks with it to this date.
