Ebanie Bridges and Kell Brook are partners – both inside and outside of the boxing ring.
Bridges and Brook, two former IBF world champions in their own careers, announced that their son Ezerra Ray Brook had been born in March of this year.
Focus has been outside of the ring for the pair, who have joked their son is the first born to two boxing world champion parents.
Brook had a legendary career in the sport but is now retired with his last bout seeing him beat bitter rival Amir Khan in 2022.
But after her pregnancy, Bridges is now set to return to boxing for the first time since her last fight in 2023, where she claimed victory.
The Aussie is now back in training alongside partner Brook, who has been helping with her regime.
Astonishingly, the pair have put their love to one side and even shared some sparring sessions.
And when lacing up the gloves, Bridges has revealed her partner ‘The Special One’ has not pulled any punches.
She exclusively told talkSPORT.com: “We’ve always worked together and he holds pads for me.
“We even spar and I learned a lot of him when he beats me up in sparring. He’s Kell Brook, isn’t he? He’s amazing.
“It’s like when he does things to me like body shots, so from him getting me and doing that it hurts.
“But it makes me want to do it and learn the shots, and I am a very visual learner so it helps massively.
“I remember sparring with him, then I learned this combination from Kell a couple of years ago.
“I then went in and did this session with another girl, and I dropped her with this shot and broke her nose.”
Why are Ebanie Bridges and Kell Brook boxing’s power couple?
It will be a handy weapon to have high level sparring for the ‘Blonde Bomber’ who wants to revive her career this year.
Brook has fought the likes of Gennady Golovkin, Terence Crawford and many more high level operators.
Herself and Brook’s relationship has been the talk of the boxing community in recent years.
And having been labelled boxing’s ‘power couple’, it is a moniker that herself and Brook are willing to play up too.
But she believes the pressure will as a result be on her son in the future to lace up his gloves and follow in his parent’s footsteps.
“We always were boxing’s power couple,” Bridges continued.
“No, but look we kept things private because it is better to have a private life.
“Our son has a lot of pressure, I feel sorry for him. Everyone in the street says, ‘future world champ’.
“We obviously love him whatever he does, but he’s very advanced.
“Me and Kell do everything together, he’s managed me ever since I’ve been in the UK.
“Everything is going great, I’m lucky to have him and the future is looking up.”
As for Bridges’ career, she recently signed with Jake Paul’s Most Valuable Promotions in a huge deal to try and make her way back to the top.
And she is hopeful of reaching her previous heights and once again becoming a world champion in the twilight years of her stint in the squared circle.
