Devin Haney and Regis Prograis are poised to receive substantial purses in one of the most significant bouts of their careers as they prepare to face off in a highly anticipated match this Saturday. Haney, hailing from the Bay Area, aims to secure a two-weight world champion status in the upcoming showdown scheduled to unfold at the Chase Center in San Francisco, California.

Prograis has a well-secured team side on his side. But the most significant person on his side is still his wife, Raquel Prograis, who has stood by him through thick and thin as promised in her vows. Let us dive into how they met and how her presence has helped the boxer.

Who is Raquel Prograis? Modeling career, social media, and more

Raquel, other than being married to ‘Rougarou’, also derives her fame from being a Brazilian-American YouTuber. However, her prominence certainly rose significantly following her marriage to the boxer. Originally from Rio de Janeiro, she currently boasts over 5,000 followers on her Instagram account. Here, she shares modeling photos and glimpses of her life with the super lightweight champion and their three children.

Additionally, Raquel manages her own YouTube channel, ‘Raquel’s Mini Luxury’, featuring vlogs that have garnered an audience of over 1,000 subscribers. Although in the early stages of her YouTube journey, it is evident that she is effectively building her presence in the online space.

During a press conference before his fight with Juan Heraldez in 2020, Prograis provided fans a glimpse into his married life. “My wife is real good. She handles the household and stuff like that,” said Prograis. The two have been lucky to have found each other. Both can often be seen supporting the other, be it an upcoming brawl or a birthing session.

How did Regis and Raquel Prograis meet? How long have they been dating, and when did they get married? 

Regis and Raquel first crossed paths through a mutual client. Who would have guessed it would eventually lead to their marriage in December 2012? Their social media presence reflects a close and affectionate relationship. The two barely shy away from expressing admiration for each other. Despite the initial language barrier, Regis not speaking Portuguese and Raquel not fluent in English, their connection stood strong through all tests.

Raquel’s aunt facilitated Portuguese lessons for Regis. He was more than willing to dedicate time to learning the language during his commute to and from training sessions, using a CD player in his truck. This concerted effort ultimately proved successful. Raquel has even impacted Regis’s training. How? In an interview with Helwani, Prograis disclosed that they frequently visit her home country for various purposes. Thanks to these trips, Regis has had the opportunity to train with renowned MMA figures. In the discussion, he shared that during his visits to Brazil, he engaged in training sessions with notable names like Jose Aldo and Pedro Rizzo.

How many children do they have?

Regis and Raquel have a sweet family of three children, comprising two daughters and a son. Their son, Ray, now 10 years old, was born on October 20, 2013, and their daughter, Khalessi, now 7 years old, joined the family on August 10, 2016. In a video shared by the boxer in November 2020, he captured the special and unique moment of Raquel giving birth to their third child in a pool. The baby should be 3 years old now.

Prograis, unfortunately, was caught in the middle of a bout as he expected his third child. However, he had his priorities set. In fact, he was just as concerned about reaching his wife on time to be present as she went through the struggle of childbirth. “But if she didn’t have the baby yet, I’ll need to get out of here just to catch the birth of the baby. It all depends. But I think she’ll have the baby before the fight. So, if she has the baby before the fight, she’ll be at home and she’ll be OK.” said Prograis at the time.

Prograis’ loving relationship free of any scandals or controversy is a testament to their commitment to each other. Their relationship has stood the test of time and fans often swoon over their wholesome chemistry. What do you think of the two lovebirds?
