World heavyweight boxing champion, Anthony Joshua, has
opened up on his challenges in finding true love, adding that he is yet to find
a partner.
Speaking with The Sun UK, Joshua also opened up about the
struggles he has been facing while trying to align his career with his personal
life.
According to him, he hopes to find a woman who would have to
understand what it’s to be famous,
He said, “I think one can date and still be a successful
sportsman but it has been very hard for me to find a balance and I would have
to compromise which I have not been able to do.
“My dad never gave me advice about much. But in terms of
relationships, what I have learned and what I will always tell my son is, it
would be nice to find a high school sweetheart and to grow together because as
you get older, you get set in your ways.
“For me to have a relationship now, it means I would have to
compromise and change my ways and I don’t know how easy that would be for me.
“I date but I don’t get to the stage where I actually put
anyone into that position.
“I don’t have a girlfriend and I haven’t had one for a while
but as I get older I think it would be nice to have someone to grow with as
well but honestly I haven’t found anyone.
”I have been thinking, maybe I need to get off the estate
and start going to celebrity parties maybe do something different.
“I really hope that I will probably meet someone who understands
fame, that would really make sense.
“But then it needs to be someone down to earth, someone who
is family-orientated and would take my mum as their second mum.
“As I get older it would be nice to bring someone into my
world but it’s dependent on who and I just haven’t found someone yet.”
Speaking on his boxing fight with British rival, Tyson Fury,
Joshua said if he was to fight again this year, it would probably be in
November or December.
“In my own mind, I had mentally written off most of this
year but, if I am to fight this year, it would probably be in November or
December.
“It’s difficult at the moment knowing how you cover the
costs, and whether you could charge people in the circumstances for pay per
view,” he added.

Does Joshua have a child? I was thing so but he is sounding as if he has never been in a relationship.
ReplyDeleteHis advice to his son is the funniest a dad could give his son. This shows that Joshua is not know much about relationship really. How dare you even think of your son doing that?
The point is that most high school sweet hearts relationships ends I heart breaks and never lead to marriage. Agood number of those who end up in marriage struggle with tumoiltous marriages that ends up in divorce and separations.
This is because they are financially,emotionally and psychologically immature to handle such union. Money alone does not necessarily make a marriage or relationship to succeed.
