Who is Tai Tuivasa married to?
Tai Tuivasa is in a relationship with Brierley Pedro and the two have been together for over six years. It is not confirmed whether the two have tied the knot yet as Brierley does not have any public social media presence to provide further details.
Interestingly, Tuivasa's partner Brierley is the sister of fellow UFC fighter Tyson Pedro. Pedro competes in the UFC's light heavyweight division and was a part of the promotion from 2016, a year before Tuivasa's octagon debut, till his retirement from the MMA competition in March 2024.
Tuivasa and his brother-in-law host a podcast named 'The Halfcast Podcast' along with former professional rugby player Andrew Fifita. The two are good friends outside of their mutual connection to Brierley Pedro.
Tuivasa and his partner have one son together, Carter Tuivasa.
Carter turned six years old in November 2023 as evidenced by his birthday wish from dad on Instagram.

When and who will Tai Tuivasa fight next?
In his next fight, Tai Tuivasa will fight Jairzinho Rozenstruik on the UFC 305 main card. The event will take place in Perth, Australia, on August 17. The middleweight title fight between champion Dricus du Plessis and former two-time title holder Israel Adesanya will headline the event.
Tuivasa and Rozenstruik are ranked No.10 and No.11, respectively in the heavyweight rankings. Therefore, their clash will be key in determining who stays in the top 10 and who will potentially dropdown.
Despite his higher ranking, Tuivasa is on a worse run of form than Tybura with an ongoing streak of four straight losses. 'Bam Bam' is winless since 2022. However, three of his last four losses have come against top-five ranked fighters.
Meanwhile, Rozenstruk has altered between wins and losses in his last four fights. He is coming off a TKO win over Shamil Gaziev in his last outing which took place in March 2024.
