Khabib Nurmagomedov, the former UFC lightweight champion, has always been fiercely private about his personal life. The former champion retired from the sport after his victory against Justin Gaethje at UFC 254. Since then, ‘The Eagle’ has focused on helping fellow Dagestani fighters achieve remarkable success in the sport of MMA.
Every now and then, Nurmagomedov will pop up on social media feeds after an interview or podcast appearance. Many UFC stars reveal their children and partners on their social media accounts. Despite having over 37 million followers on social media, Nurmagomedov has never shared details or photos of his wife and children. In a recent interview, Khabib revealed his reasons for such a private life.
My family is my family. I run social networks to inspire people around the world because I am very famous. Why don’t I like to post my family, my children on social networks? Maybe they don’t want to be famous. My son is 6 years old now. Maybe when he grows up, when he is 18-20 years old, he will tell me: ‘Why did you make me famous? I didn’t want this.’

The Dagestani fighter has always maintained a low profile in his personal life despite his large online following. His social media is filled with posts about his training, teammates, and faith, but no image of his wife or children can be found. Many question his reason for such confidentiality, but Nurmagomedov remains steadfast in his decision.
Khabib Nurmagomedov continues to support his Dagestani camp as he helps train Islam Makhachev, Umar Nurmagomedov, Usman Nurmagomedov, and many more fighters. In a way, he has replaced his father, Adbulmanap Nurmagomedov, as the best trainer in Dagestan. Despite the low profile of his family, the former UFC champ continues to emphasize the importance of training for young men.
