Is Sean O'Malley still together with wife Danya Gonzalez? Do they have kids? A look into the UFC star's open marriage
UFC bantamweight champion Sean O'Malley is undoubtedly one of the biggest superstars in the UFC and is known for his unique personality paired with his off-beat sense of fashion. However, O'Malley is more than his appearances and is widely considered to possess some of the best striking skills in the promotion.
As O'Malley rose through the bantamweight ranks in the UFC, he had his longtime partner and wife, Danya Gonzalez, supporting him. 'Sugar' and Gonzalez have been together for many years and have a daughter, Elena, who was born in 2020.
Interestingly, Sean O'Malley and Danya Gonzalez share a non-monogamous marriage. They have an ‘open relationship’ and allow each other to date outside the marriage.
The mercurial bantamweight fighter has previously discussed this unique relationship with his wife and stated that they have a strong bond, which grew stronger after the birth of their child. He has also revealed that while he occasionally pursues other women, Gonzalez will always be his main girl.
In a video uploaded to his YouTube channel, Sean O'Malley sat down with Danya Gonzalez and answered a fan's question about why they decided to try an open marriage. He said:
"We listen. We listened to podcasts, learned about relationships and growing so we could figure out what relationship works for us... I'm h*rny all the time, and it's not just for you [Gonzalez]. It took us years to get past that, but I was telling my truths."

Sean O'Malley spend up on the struggles of raising a kid
Sean O'Malley may have figured out the perfect kind of relationship that works the best for his personal needs. He has also climbed to the top of the combat sports world and has several other sources of income that help him live the life of his dreams.
Despite all the success, O'Malley is yet to figure out one thing and that's raising a young child. The 28-year-old is admittedly still learning to deal with his young daughter and while speaking on the topic during an episode of TimboSugaShow podcast, he said about his methods of disciplining his daughter:
“I haven't got that thing figured out. Let's see how she turns out. She's just a spoilt little brat.”
