The pro fighter continues to stir chatter online – not least because he’s made numerous headlines in recent months for his bizarre social media posts and shocking interviews.
The announcement of his engagement is just the latest twist in his seemingly chaotic personal life. Per British media, Garcia proposed to Australian Savannah Bond in mid April, ahead of the “biggest fight of his career”.

According to British media, the actress – real name Kelli-Anne Oxley – attended a strict all-girls Catholic secondary school and initially studied beauty therapy before working in a pharmacy for a stint.

Who else has Ryan Garcia dated or been married to?
Garcia announced his new relationship with “Australia’s highest-paid OnlyFans creator” Mikaela Testa in February this year – Testa was reportedly banned from TikTok for sharing too much provocative content on the platform – but it clearly didn’t take long for things to fizzle out.
Before that he was married to influencer Andrea Célina.
According to Essentially Sports, Garcia has multiple children. He welcomed a baby boy with ex-wife Andrea Célina in December, and also has a daughter called Bela with her. He also has another daughter with his ex-partner Catherine Gamez.
Besides his new fiancée, Garcia has made headlines for a range of controversial actions in recent months, including a strange video shared on Instagram on March 3 showing a shaky camera and an unidentifiable man inside a house. The words “We got him boys. Ryan Garcia RIP b*****. 666,” appears over the clip.
According to British media, Garcia’s father claimed that his son was “just trolling” – but not everyone is convinced. Garcia then confused netizens further when he appeared in an interview with controversial influencer Andrew Tate shared on X. In the conversation, Garcia angrily alleges that he had been “taken to the woods” by the “higher elites” and been made to watch child abuse, adding that he had video proof. It’s unclear exactly what he is referring to or whether his statement is true or not, but it caused quite the commotion online.
