Conor Benn’s stunning wife, Victoria, was in attendance for his marquee win over Chris Eubank Jr last year and is regularly offering updates on the couple via Instagram.
Much of their personal life is still kept private, but Victoria is particularly active on social media and sometimes offers a glimpse into what they get up to with their children, Eli Clay and Idony Susanna.
The couple began dating in 2017 before tying the knot the following year. Victoria has worked as a radio personality and model, and certainly enjoys living the lavish life.

But that has come alongside some scary moments, with one of those taking place a couple of years ago when an intruder broke into their home while she was alone with her baby son Eli.
In a video uploaded to her YouTube channel, which has since been made private, Victoria recounted seeing someone in her house after hearing a noise while eating dinner.
She said: “I walked out to the hallway and I found a man on the stairs, it was probably the most scariest thing that has ever happened to me. I cannot explain the feeling that took over me, it makes me want to be sick.”
Conor was out of the house, but she was able to raise the alarm with neighbours, and the intruder left without taking anything.
He is currently preparing for his next fight against Regis Prograis, which takes place this weekend on the Tyson Fury undercard. He caused quite the stir recently after announcing his decision to leave Eddie Hearn’s Matchroom Boxing for Dana White’s Zuffa Boxing.
Explaining his decision, he said on the Overlap podcast. “This is one of those decisions where I sit down and I go, ‘It changes not just my kids’ lives but my kids’ kids lives.” There’s nothing I would not be willing to do in the interests of my kids and family over anybody.”
“It’s hard when you’re talking the money you’re talking,” he added. “You can’t say it’s painful because my loyalty is not with Matchroom – I love Matchroom and am forever grateful [to them]. My love for Eddie and Matchroom will always be there.
“You can’t even say heartbreaking because, ultimately, it’s a business decision and you have to make the best decision for you, your family and your career. For me, this is the best decision.”
Victoria is clearly a huge part of his support system and a major reason for his call. She will almost certainly be cheering on her husband this Saturday at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
