Argentine star Ailin Perez has proved to be a pretty entertaining fighter since joining the UFC in 2022. People in the MMA community got acquainted with her for her outrageous post-fight antics and victory celebrations. But something that we don’t talk about Perez is her personal life and today we will explore just that, especially her relationship status.

At 29 years old, Ailin Perez is relatively new in MMA because she’s only had a dozen fights so far. Interestingly. Perez appears to be quite a private person.

All we know about the relationship status of Ailin Perez

We see a lot of fighters having their spouses and romantic partners attend their fights either during Fight Nights or PPVs. But, when it comes to Ailin Perez, we’ve never seen anyone other than her team support her during her matchups. But why is that? That’s because ‘Fiona’ is a private person, which is a surprise because she’s a pretty outgoing personality, full of energy. Hence, we don’t really know if Perez is married or if she’s in a relationship currently.

Ailin Perez’s privacy doesn’t just revolve around her relationship status because the identities of her family members have also been concealed by the Argentine fighter. But there is one person that she cherishes and is pretty much open about on her social media, and that’s her son. Let’s check the details on that front.

Meet ‘Fiona’s only child, her son Ades

Ailin Perez has only one child, her son Ades, who’s around 5 years old. Fans can notice him on her social media handles, where she constantly posts pictures of her having some fun times hanging out with Ades. However, things aren’t always mellow and Perez felt that when she had to leave her son for seven months back when she was 27 years old, in her attempt to pursue her dream of becoming an MMA pro.

In an interview with Sherdog, she said, “My main goal is to have my son near me. I can’t live in Argentina since my academy is in Miami. The hardest part is being far away from my son. My prize after each fight is to always to return to Argentina in good health, so I can hug him and tell him how much I miss him. He’s my motivation, focus and inspiration for waking up every day and putting in all this hard work with my training partners.”

“When I decided to leave [my son] I thought about it for a whole month, in December of last year [2020] when my manager called me. I told him I was going to think about it, and in January he confirmed it. There I began to leave everything ready and prepare myself mentally,” Ailin Perez told Argentine media outlet Clarin.

We will have to wait and see if she’ll have her son in the audience when she goes all guns blazing against Joselyne Edwards at UFC 302.
