Khabib Nurmagomedov Kids: How Many Children Does He Have?

The kind of record that Khabib Nurmagomedov forged for himself in the sport of MMA is on a level of his own. Yes, he did leave fans wanting more when he officially retired in 2021. His way of mauling his opponents was something we only got to witness when he was active inside the Octagon. Despite fighters like Islam Makhachev and Umar Nurmagomedov, there can never be another Khabib. So, this could make fans wonder if he has any children who will carry on that legacy.

‘The Eagle’ is making a comeback to his role as a cornerman, given that two of his proteges, Islam Makhachev and Umar Nurmagomedov are gearing up for title fights as the main and co-main event stars of the UFC 311‘s main card. But before we get to the PPV in a matter of a few hours, let’s explore Khabib’s personal life a bit, his kids, and whether they’ll follow in their fathers’ footsteps.

Does Khabib Nurmagomedov have kids?

To put it simply, yes, Khabib Nurmagomedov is married to his wife, Patimat, and has three children. While one is a daughter, the other two are boys and their names are Fatima, Magomed, and Husayn, respectively. While he never talked about his daughter coming into MMA, he did talk about the chances of his sons, who have started training, entering the MMA realm, surprising no one.

“Personally, I don’t want him to become a professional athlete. But, if he choose, what we can do? I’m not going to hold him (back) or do something, but honestly, I don’t want [him to compete professionally]. I just want him to become a normal human because professional athletes, they are not normal people,” Khabib Nurmagomedov said during an interview at an event in Canada last year.

What about his wife? What do we know about Khabub Nurmagomedov’s wife? Let’s find out.

More about Khabib’s wife Patimat and his family

‘The Eagle’s wife, Patimat, is actually a distant cousin of Khabib Nurmagomedov, sharing the same last name even before marriage. In fact, both of them were born in the Dagestani village of Sildi and they met when during their younger years in school. When they got married in 2013, the couple hosted a mindboggling 4000 people during their celebrations.

By the time Khabib Nurmagomedov married Patimat, he had already become a professional UFC fighter and defeated the likes of Gleison Tibau and Kamal Shalorus as his first lightweight opponents. So, Dagestanis marched in thousands to attend Nurmagomedov’s spectacular wedding feast. However, as the customs dictate in Islamic traditions, the bride, Patimat, was covered in a veil.

Due to this tradition, Patimat manages to avoid public appearances without the veil. And nobody has ever taken or posted pictures of Patimat Nurmagomedov. Whereas the outside world has objected to this treatment, Khabib’s strict adherence to the Islamic religion never falters. When it comes to Khabib Nurmagomedov’s own family, besides his famous father and his mother, he has two siblings – a brother and a sister named Magomed and Amina Nurmagomedov.
