Ryan Garcia has a newfound love. The American boxer, skilled at dodging punches in the ring, got knocked out by the charm of Billie Eilish. He has publicly expressed his affection for the American heartthrob and lifted the veil on their status. Are the two dating? Garcia’s latest posts drop a hint.
The 25-year-old boxer’s personal life has gone through a lot of ups and downs recently. From the birth of a second child to a divorce, he has seen and endured it all. Moreover, there were rumors of him dating an Australian model. However, it seems ‘KingRy’ has set his heart on the American singer.

Following this, the Victorville native clarified that he and Eilish were dating and called her a “queen,” demanding respect for their personal lives. He said, “Just bc Billie and I dating don’t mean it a a problem. She’s A QUEEN RESPECT IT.” But are the two really dating?
It doesn’t seem so. Garcia’s social media posts have garnered eyeballs for their quirky and sometimes nonsensical content recently. His social media shenanigans are believed to be a ploy to gain psychological advantage for his upcoming fight against Devin Haney. Garcia has employed such theatrics ever since the fight was announced, and his social media posts have to be taken with a pinch of salt. But who is the lightweight boxer dating?

Just hours after welcoming his second child, Garcia announced his split with Andrea Celina. But he would soon find love in Mikaela Testa, a 23-year-old Australian social media influencer. Testa first found mention in Garcia’s social media posts in February, as he called her “baby” and was willing to put a $500,000 bet on her.
Testa is a popular name on Instagram, with close to 1 million followers, and on TikTok, but was banned from the latter for breaking community guidelines. According to Garcia’s post, he was training her to fight in Misfits Boxing. However, not much is known about when the two met and sparked a romantic connection.
