Personal details about the Ukrainian and his family are rarely shared with the media, and the sportsman does not do regular interviews.

Lomachenko and his wife have a son together called Anatoly Lomachenko, but his birth date isn't known.

The couple also reportedly share a daughter called Victoria but, again, not many details about the little girl are known.

The family are thought to live in California, in the United States.
