Katie Taylor Reveals Married Life in Connecticut and Her First Break From Boxing

The boxer outlined a first career hiatus tied to a new, quiet home life in Connecticut.

Overview

  • Katie Taylor confirmed her marriage to American real estate agent Sean McCavanagh, sharing a wedding photo during an interview on RTÉ’s The Late Late Show.
  • She said the couple live a “lovely, quiet life” in Connecticut and noted she is now stepmother to McCavanagh’s five children after the 2023 death of their mother, Alicia.
  • Taylor last fought in July, defeating Amanda Serrano in their trilogy bout at Madison Square Garden, and she has since taken her first extended break from training.
  • She was recognised by the WBC as a Champion in Recess during this pause, describing the downtime as challenging but restorative.
