Is Israel Adesanya dating anyone right now?
Israel Adesanya is quite discreet when it comes to exposing his personal life facts.
He has rarely revealed who he is dating up to this point.
Despite the secrecy, there was once a report that Adesanya was dating.
The rumor started right before the UFC 253 in September 2020, when the MMA fighter uploaded several Instagram tales of an unknown girl.
This prompted his frantic followers to think that he is in a new relationship.
They were unable to identify the girl because Adesanya had cut off her face.
The public first saw Adesanya’s girlfriend’s face when the parent company, Zuffa LLC, posted a photo of them together.
They were later photographed sharing a bathtub together, confirming their relationship.
On November 21, 2020, he shared a photo of his supposed girlfriend standing on top of a hill or mountain, with only her back to the camera.
The final sentence of the caption verified his relationship.
“Don’t ask me to do crap while I’m back in NZ for the summer,” it said. “I’m swamped!”
People began to suspect that the unknown female was working as a UFC ring girl as their relationship became practically certain.
However, such a hypothesis was incorrect because there was no information about any UFC ring girl who matched the strange girl.
It was claimed that they had split up after Adesanya’s girlfriend’s name was not revealed and she looked to have vanished from the MMA fighter’s Instagram.
However, because he has not verified his relationship, the rumors are merely rumors.
Is Israel Adesanya a gay man?
Because Israel Adesanya’s love life is shrouded in mystery, some have assumed that the 6 feet 4 inches tall UFC fighter is gay.
His hair color and clothing style was further factors in the hypothesis.

All the LGBT rumors, however, ceased as the fighter from Lagos, Nigeria addressed the issue directly.
He rushed to Instagram to provide a screenshot of a comment area in which one person said, “I honestly thought Izzy (Adesanya) was gay,” to which another commented, “same man that pink hair threw me off.”
In response, Adesanya wrote in the story that this type of comment happens every fight week, complete with bored and eye-rolling emojis.
The rumors came to an end when the boxer tweeted a photo with a friend on December 30, 2020, and titled it “Ha! Gaaaaaayyee!!”
On the same day, he also shared a gif of the ‘Trying to Figure Out Meme’ with the message, “The internet trying to find out whether I’m homosexual.”
All of this, combined with the potential of a girl in Adesanya’s life, obviously points to just one conceivable outcome: Israel Adesanya is not gay.
