Who Is Robert Whittaker’s Wife?
Although MMA fans get excited every time ‘Bobby Knuckles’ steps foot in the UFC octagon, they are also curious as to who he is dating too. Here at SportsCasting we can reveal that Robert Whittaker is happily married to his wife and long-term partner Sofia.
The former UFC Middleweight Champion tied the knot with Mrs Whittaker back in October 2014 – over a decade ago now. Prior to their wedding, Robert and Sofia were in a loving relationship for several years. This means that all in all, they have been together for around 15 years, perhaps even more.
Sofia hails from Sydney, Australia and is said to be a keen health and fitness enthusiast. She reportedly attended St. John Bosco College before studying fitness and health at Australian Catholic University.
In terms of a job, it is unknown what Sofia Whittaker works as. As Robert Whittaker’s wife, she will likely take care of their home and do the jobs ‘The Reaper’ doesn’t have time to do when training for a UFC fight.
Whittaker’s wife Sofia regularly shares photographs of her and her beloved husband on her social media channels, mainly her Instagram. It is evident the couple are happily in love and enjoy every second they spend together.
Robert and Sofia are in an incredibly happy and fruitful relationship right now, that is certainly apparent. It is great to see that not only is ‘Bobby Knuckles’ winning inside the octagon, but he is certainly winning outside of the cage too!

Do Robert Whittaker & Wife Sofia Have Any Children?
Not only is Robert Whittaker a loving husband and partner to his wife Sofia, but he is a father too. The New Zealand MMA phenom became a father around nine or 10 years ago, perhaps even more. Since their marriage in 2014, Whittaker and his beloved wife Sofia have had five children together.
The former UFC 185-pound champion has said in countless interviews that being a father is his biggest achievement in life. Fighting in the octagon and being a mixed martial artist is all for his family. Earning a good living to set his family up for life. ‘The Reaper’ really is the ultimate family man.
Robert and Sofia’s five children are called John, Jack, Jace, Lilliana and their youngest’s name is unknown at this moment. They have three sons and two daughters.
The Whittaker’s relationship and family life has been going strong for over a decade. Both Robert and his wife Sofia have always considered family as their number one priority in life.
“If I had to sacrifice my time with my family to be the world champ then being the world champ just wouldn’t be worth it. There’s nothing stronger, nothing more powerful than my family that pushes me forward. My family gives me direction and it also gives me fulfilment. My family is what makes everything worth doing,” said Whittaker in a recent interview.
