Former two-weight world champion David Haye is set to provide expert analysis for one of the year's most anticipated boxing events, as Jake Paul takes on Anthony Joshua in Miami on Friday, December 19. While his punditry will be in focus, Haye's life outside the ring continues to draw significant public interest, encompassing his family, unconventional relationships, and substantial wealth.
From the Ring to the Commentary Booth
David Haye will be on punditry duty at the Kaseya Center in Miami for the high-profile clash between YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul and former unified heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua. Haye has been vocal in the pre-fight build-up, even suggesting that the younger Paul could potentially spring a surprise against the more experienced Joshua.
His authority on the subject is rooted in a decorated career. Before retiring, Haye achieved the rare status of a two-weight world champion. He first unified the cruiserweight division before moving up to heavyweight, where he is best remembered for his 2009 victory over the 7-foot-tall Nikolai Valuev to win the WBA Heavyweight title. His lucrative fights, including major pay-per-view events against Tony Bellew and Wladimir Klitschko, have contributed significantly to his fortune.
Family, Relationships, and Lifestyle
Away from boxing, Haye's personal life often makes headlines. He has been in a committed relationship with model Sian Osborne since 2020, and she remains his primary partner. However, Haye is openly polyamorous, frequently stating that he does not believe traditional monogamy is the only path to happiness and that "one woman will never be enough" for him.
He views "throuples" – relationships involving three people – as a transparent and honest dynamic. This was most publicly seen in early 2023 when he and Osborne were linked in a throuple with The Saturdays singer Una Healy, though the arrangement later ended. Healy later clarified she considered herself monogamous and had simply been dating Haye while he was with Osborne.
In a move that captured media attention, Haye and Osborne reportedly used the exclusive dating app Raya to specifically seek a third person to join their relationship, their profile making it clear they were a "packaged deal."
On the family front, Haye's 17-year-old son, Cassius, is forging his own path in professional tennis. Cassius has already achieved a world ranking inside the ATP top 2300 and has reached several quarter-finals on the ITF circuit, such as at M15 La Nucia, as he hunts for his first senior professional title.
Legacy and Net Worth
David Haye's success in the ring and savvy business investments have culminated in an estimated net worth of approximately £15 million. This substantial wealth secures his status as one of British boxing's most financially successful figures of his era.
As he steps into the commentator's role for the Paul vs Joshua fight, Haye brings with him not just expert boxing insight, but a lifetime of experience built on championship grit, controversial personal choices, and entrepreneurial acumen.
