Is Floyd Mayweather married?

Floyd Mayweather Jr. is not married. However, he is currently dating Instagram model Gallienne Nabila. In October 2019, Gallienne was seen hanging out with Floyd. She was spotted wearing a large diamond ring on her ring finger, and many people believe that the pair is presently engaged.

Although it's unclear whether Floyd Mayweather Jr. is engaged to Gallienne or not, they are still going strong together.

American actress Shantel Jackson was in a steady relationship with Mayweather for many years. The pair met in 2006 when Jackson was working as a hostess in Atlanta. They started dating each other the same year and were together for eight years before eventually separating in 2014. The couple even got engaged in 2010 and looked set to get married. However, they split up eventually.

As for the reasons behind the split, Floyd cited that Shantel had aborted their twin babies on the pretext of not being ready to experience motherhood. He further claimed that Shantel was more concerned about her career than their relationship.

Jackson’s then-blooming relationship with her boyfriend, rapper Nelly was reportedly one of the major reasons behind her break-up with Mayweather.

According to The Blast, following their split in 2014, Jackson filed domestic battery, assault, defamation, and invasion of privacy charges against Mayweather. In response, 'Money' counter-sued her, claiming that she stole his money and misused his credit cards without his permission. In June 2021, Jackson dropped the lawsuit as the ex-couple reached an out-of-court settlement.

According to multiple sources, Mayweather spent millions on buying expensive gifts for Shantel when they were together. The list includes a 17-carat diamond worth over $2 million, over 100 designer purses, and designer clothing items. He even allowed her to use his credit card.

Mayweather's ex-girlfriend, Josie Harris, was the mother of his three children. On June 23, 2020, Harris was found dead inside her car. According to the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner-Coroner, she had died due to a drug overdose.

In 2010, Harris decided to come out in public and accused Floyd Mayweather Jr. of causing her physical and mental trauma. She stated that Floyd had physically and verbally abused her on at least six occasions. Floyd was even sentenced to two months of jail time in 2012. Mayweather has remembered Harris fondly since her passing and even claimed that he would give up everything to bring her back.

Melissa Brim is the mother of Floyd's only daughter, Iyanna. They met when Floyd was still dating Josie. They never got engaged and were in an on-and-off relationship. Brim gave birth to Iyanna in 2000.
