Ryan Garcia, the Mexican-American boxing star, has always attracted attention for his lightning-fast hands and his life outside the ring. In 2024, his personal life became a major talking point after the highly publicized end of his marriage to Andrea Celina.
Who Is Andrea Celina?
The Mexican-Italian fitness model and influencer Andrea Celina was born on January 12, 1996. She has more than 140,000 Instagram followers. Her fitness content, lifestyle updates, and commercial collaborations have made her famous. Celina is three years older than Garcia and often shares glimpses of her heritage and travels online.
Their Relationship Timeline
Garcia and Celina began dating in 2019 and married in 2021. By then, they were already parents to their daughter, Bela, born in December 2020. Their relationship appeared close-knit, with both sharing family moments on social media, including vacations and celebrations
Family and Children
The couple has two children together:
- Bela, their daughter, born December 2020
- Henry Leo, their son, born December 23, 2023
Garcia also has an older daughter, Rylie, from his previous relationship with Catherine Gamez. Notably, all three children—Bela, Henry Leo, and Rylie—currently reside together with Garcia and Celina in Garcia’s $3 million mansion, despite the couple’s divorce.
The Divorce Announcement and Aftermath
The end of Garcia and Celina’s marriage was abrupt and public. On January 6, 2024, just an hour after announcing the birth of their son Henry Leo, Garcia revealed on Instagram that he and Celina were divorcing. Court documents later showed their separation had actually occurred on Christmas Day 2023.
Garcia’s statement emphasized their commitment to co-parenting: “As I enter a new chapter in my life, it is with great regret that I share that Drea and I have decided to divorce. While this decision marks the end of our marriage, it is important to emphasize that our relationship as parents remains our top priority.”
The timing of the announcement—so soon after their son’s birth—sparked backlash online, though Garcia later apologized for not choosing a “more appropriate time” to share the news
Current Living Situation and Co-Parenting
Garcia and Celina have had a cordial friendship even after their divorce has been finalised. Keeping their family stable and supported, they are reportedly still living together in Garcia’s home with Rylie and their two daughters.
Many were surprised and confused by the news of the divorce, and some were even critical of Garcia for making the announcement at that particular time. Despite her evasive public pronouncements about the divorce, Celina has been posting mysterious messages on Instagram stories, where she has hinted at moving on.
