The exact date of their marriage is unknown, but as per reports, they tied the knot in Florida at a private party, only with close friends and family. Jones Jr. is also a father to 3 sons, named- Roy Jones, DeShaun Jones, and DeAndre Jones.

However, life hasn’t been easy for them. The pair has gone through several dark days to reach where they are today. Natlyn Jones connected with the Bleacher Report in the past to discuss it.

She said, “Everyone thinks how much easier life must get when your boat comes in, but there’s a lot of other stuff you have to be ready for too.

“Not all of it’s that easy to deal with. But I guess going into marrying a professional athlete, you have to know what you’re marrying into. Not that I did. I just couldn’t believe how nice he was, and, you know, you fall in love.”

While we still expect another fight from ‘Captain Hook’, it’s his family that can influence the decision of returning to the ring. Do you think Roy Jones Jr. will fight again?
