Most UFC fans believed that Jon Jones’ fiance, Jessie Moses, had called an end to her relationship with Bones. But they were startled when they witnessed Moses walking into the octagon to celebrate ‘Bones’s’ UFC 295 victory. Well, Jones should also be considered a pretty lucky individual, since things like these don’t happen often. The renowned former UFC Strawweight champ, Jessica Andrade’s story presents a stark contrast to the Jones-Moses tale mentioned above.

The UFC community has witnessed several fighters struggling to sustain their married relationship due to various reasons. Although things do settle down many times, many such cases end up with couples going their separate ways. The mention of Jessica Andrade previously may compel fans to think that she also has seen the untoward phase of a marriage. But is it really so? Let’s take a look at her personal side to learn a bit more about her relationship status.

Jessica Andrade was in a married relationship with Fernanda Gomes

There are a few sources that reveal that Jessica Andrade was in a relationship with Fernanda Gomes since 2013. The couple decided to host a small ceremony in the UFC’s hometown, Las Vegas, in 2019, declaring themselves as a married couple. There are no exact reports about the age of Gomes, but some sources say that she’s in her early thirties currently.

Gomes is a biology graduate who has also worked as a professional biologist previously. After her marriage to Andrade, she made herself a part of ‘Bate Estaca’s’ team and took up her nutrition-related responsibilities. They were reported to be a pretty happy couple that had two dogs and were planning to become parents soon.

But things took an unruly turn just within a few years of their marriage. A large chunk of the UFC community stood shocked when several credible sources reported that Andrade had split with Gomes. However, there is some confusion about the year in which they divorced, as some sources say that the year is 2022, while others mention it as 2023.

The 32-year-old Brazilian also revealed that Gomes’s mishandling of her money was one of the primary reasons behind the fall of their marriage. Most fans may know that her upcoming UFC 295 rival, Mackenzie Dern, also has a similar story. But does she have enough to match Andrade’s in-octagon prowess?

Jessica Andrade’s weakness is her upcoming rival’s strength

A look at the results of Andrade’s fights to date will reveal that she has won only a handful of them via submission. The count of her KO/TKO wins trumps the number of her wins via submission by quite a significant margin. Evidently, Andrade’s striking is far more formidable than her ground game.

How Many Kids Does Mackenzie Dern Have?

This is exactly where her rivals’ strength lies. Mackenzie Dern holds a third-degree black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. It’s quite obvious that she will try to take the fight to the ground as soon as she finds an opportunity. Hence, most fans would expect Andrade to keep the fight on her feet for better chances of victory. But will she be able to do it against a strong grappler like Dern? What do you think?
