Sean O’Malley made a name for himself with impressive performances inside the octagon and an unconventional lifestyle outside it. However, he had always put his family first and foremost. Except for his father, he had moved his mom and siblings to live near him. He even went to great lengths to help his brother fight drug addiction.

O’Malley’s father was a detective and still lived in Montana. On the other hand, his mother is a Glendale resident and lives 10 minutes away from O’Malley’s residence. Moreover, his older brother also resides with their mother. O’Malley holds his mother in great value mainly due to her important role in managing his finances. He spoke about it on the Valuetainment podcast. This is what he said.

She helps me get all my tax stuff lined up for the accountant. So she loves that...She loves being a part of that. And I don't trust anyone as much as I trust my mom when it comes to, you know, tax everything. Everything I spend money on, she's aware of it.
