It has been fourteen years since Mike Tyson married his present wife. The ‘Baddest Man on the Planet’ and Lakiha Spicer tied the knot in 2009 and they share two children namely, Morocco and Milan. Very recently, ‘Kid Dynamite’ appeared on the Angie Martinez IRL Podcast and spoke about Tyson’s marriage.

Martinez commented on Tyson being married for fourteen years which in her opinion was a tremendous accomplishment. Did Tyson not think in similar lines? Tyson, who married twice before and had multiple relationships, offered an honest answer to Martinez.

Obviously, the bold accusations that Tyson made about his wife Lakiha Spicer in front of Martinez, arrived with a tinge of love and sarcasm from Tyson’s end. Prior to marrying Spicer, Mike Tyson had married Monica Turner and Robin Givens.

With Givens, the marriage lasted only for a year. However, with Turner, the marriage lasted for six years since the two married in 1997.

Like Tyson, Spicer has also served prison sentence. In 2008, she was convicted of fraud. Coming out of prison, she gave birth to Tyson’s child. At her return, she also helped Tyson who was struggling with addiction.
