5 Facts you need to know about WWE's Marina Shafir

#4. Marina Shafir has a cat named Monkey

Outside of WWE, Marina Shafir is devoted to being a mother and regularly updates her Instagram with images of her son Troy, who is now three years old.

While the past few months have been hard for many WWE stars given the pandemic and the fact that as a mother, Marina Shafir has wanted to keep her son safe, the star recently took to Instagram to reveal that her cat Monkey was one of the things that had gotten her through.

The former MMA star uploaded a cute image where she's cuddling Monkey and revealed that he had been her security blanket in these uncertain times.

Marina's cat is the only pet that the couple have since both Shafir and her husband Roderick Strong are on the road with WWE for much of their time which means that they don't have the time to put into caring for more animals at present.

That being said, the Monday Night RAW star is clearly devoted to her cat since she often uploads images of herself and her beautiful grey family member.
