Is Jon Jones Still Married? A Deep Dive into the UFC Star's Love Life

Jon Jones, the renowned UFC light heavyweight champion, has been making headlines for his prowess in the octagon. However, the question on many fans' minds is whether he's still married to ex-wife Jessie Moses. While Jones' marital status has been a subject of speculation, the former couple has kept their relationship largely under the radar. Here's a comprehensive look at Jon Jones' marital history, including his relationship with Jessie Moses and any recent developments.

The Ups and Downs of Jon Jones' Marriage

Jon Jones and Jessie Moses got married in 2011, shortly after the UFC star's debut in the mixed martial arts (MMA) world. The couple had two children together and seemed to be going strong, with Jones often referencing his wife's support and encouragement on social media.

A History of Infidelity and Reconciliation

However, Jones' career took a hit in 2015, when he was arrested for allegedly cheating on Moses with a stripper, Karolina V. Emery, in a hotel room. Moses publicly spoke out against Jones' infidelity, stating that she wanted to work through their issues and save their marriage. Jones apologized for his actions and vowed to rebuild trust with his wife.

"I love Jessie. She's been with me through everything, and I feel like I let her down," Jones said in a 2015 interview. "My career and my personal life got mixed up and I had an affair. I was trying to navigate all the different relationships and it got to the point where I was sleeping with someone I shouldn't have."

Separation and Divorce

Despite Jones' apologies and promises to work on their issues, the couple announced their separation in 2019. At the time, Moses stated on Instagram that she was leaving Jones due to "irreconcilable differences." The following year, Moses filed for divorce, citing an irretrievable breakdown in their marriage.

When asked about his divorce in a recent interview, Jones expressed his disappointment and sadness at the end of their relationship. "It hurts me, you know, seeing her move on with someone else. I wish it could be different, but I understand that sometimes things just don't work out. I wish her all the best and hope she finds happiness, but it still hurts me to see her like that," Jones said.

The Aftermath of the Divorce

The divorce proceedings have been relatively quiet compared to Jones' on-going career struggles and controversies in the UFC. Despite his split from Moses, Jones has publicly praised his ex-wife for being an amazing mother to their children, albeit with a tinge of bitterness towards the situation they're in.

"I'm just trying to co-parent and do what's best for our kids. It's not easy, but I'm doing my best. I wish she would have done the same, to be honest. It's tough, but I'm learning to navigate this new reality," Jones said in a recent statement.

Current Mauritals Status -- Separated or Still Married

Currently, there have been no public updates on Jon Jones' current marital status since his divorce filing in August 2020. While there are tried attempts to dig up more information from sensitive celebrities and concerned fans on the internet, and interviews with representatives for Jon Jones (if they exist in the discretion of the source), as of late January 2023 no concrete evidence if or how this was officially confirmed have been given by CNBC.
