- Ebanie Bridges has revealed that she is pregnant
- An Australian boxer showed off her baby bump at an event in Newcastle
- Bridges lost her most recent fight against Miyo Yoshida
Former world boxing champion Ebanie Bridges has revealed that she is pregnant with her first child.
The 37-year-old Australian last fought in December, where she lost her IBF women’s bantamweight title to Miyo Yoshida in a stunning upset, and has since kept a relatively low profile.
The blonde bomber, who has transformed the women’s boxing promotional game after launching her own OnlyFans page, was spotted out and about in Newcastle on Saturday night and fans couldn’t help but notice a big difference in her appearance.
Bridges looked radiant as she showed off her baby bump at the Utilita Arena, where she was supporting fellow influencer Elle Brooke at the 18th annual Misfit Boxing event.
Footage of Bridges arriving at the arena was captured by Boxing King Media, and the 37-year-old watched her friend Brooke win the main event via unanimous decision.
Reflecting on her ambitions as a mother, Bridges told The Sun in 2022: ‘It’s a battle I have all the time and it’s very heartbreaking.
“There’s nothing I want more than to have a family and have children. It’s very important to me.

The Australian boxer and OnlyFans star made the shocking revelation over the weekend.
Bridges has not stepped foot in the ring since her loss to Miyo Yoshida in December.
‘It’s getting harder and it’s a difficult decision to make.
‘I’m at the top of my career and I’m going to stop and have a child.
‘Not only does that keep me out for a year, but it also makes it very difficult to have a child with my partner at home.
‘My career ended here, not in Australia.
‘I can’t have a baby, then disappear and ask someone else to look after the baby and head to the UK for weeks while I’m at a training camp.
‘It’s not possible, it’s difficult for me, it’s difficult for my partner.
‘But I have to follow my heart and believe that everything happens for a reason.
“I’m just praying that in a couple of years I’ve achieved what I want to achieve and I can go away and have kids.”
