Both of them saw a steep rise in their careers with time, and no one expected them to cross paths at any stage in their careers.

By this time, De La Hoya was already a fan favorite and his fan following in females was out of the box. This is because he was a young, charming, and highly skilled boxing stalwart who was keen to make a mark in the sport. Accordingly, he kept moving ahead with his stint, and midway through his career, he crossed paths with Shanna Moakler.

Moakler and ‘Golden Boy’ seemed like an ideal couple back then, and the upcoming generation loved to see them together.

But unfortunately, the couple parted ways in September 2000. This news came in as a shock to many as they didn’t expect the two to ever get separated. But De La Hoya and Moakler did what they thought was the best option back then.

Oscar De La Hoya and Shanna Moakler’s daughter

Moakler gave birth to Atiana De La Hoya in 1999. This was the first and only child shared by ‘Golden Boy’ and Moakler.

Despite concluding their relationship, De La Hoya and Moakler share a great bond with their daughter even today. Back in the old era, the duo appeared in an interview with their newborn daughter and they certainly caught the attention of every fight fan.

Atiana De La Hoya is an internet sensation, and she’s rightly chalking out her career in the finest way. It’ll be interesting to see if she follows either of her parents’ pathways or finds success in something of her own.
