Olympic boxing hero, Nicola Adams, 42, ‘splits from OnlyFans model girlfriend, 27, of seven years’

Boxing star Nicola Adams has reportedly ended her seven-year relationship with her OnlyFans model girlfriend Ella Baig. 

Adams, 42, cemented her place in British sporting history when she won a gold medal in the sport at the 2012 Olympic Games in London. 

Nicola began dating Ella in 2018 after the pair met each other on a night out – and they subsequently opted to use fertility treatments in 2019 with the egg fertilised by a sperm donor who resembled Ella.

Ella carried the baby and gave birth a month early via caesarean section – with their son Taylor being born in July 2022.

Having began modelling from an early age after creating her Instagram account in January 2019, Ella has also been active on OnlyFans.  

But they are now said to have ended their romance despite attempting to resolve any potential differences via couples’ therapy.

A spokesman for Nicola said: ‘Nicola and Ella have shared an incredible journey together, full of love, growth, and resilience.

‘After much thoughtful reflection and important therapy work, they have made the difficult decision to separate.

‘Their priority remains their son, Taylor, and they are committed to co-parenting with love and respect.’

According to a report from The Sun, a source close to Nicola and Ella said: ‘They really tried to make it work, especially for the sake of their son, and even went to couples’ therapy, but came to the conclusion that they were better off separating.

‘They still have a lot of love for each other, and great memories, but are focused on being brilliant co-parents.’

Adams shot to fame in 2012 after winning gold at her home Olympic Games, before going on to defend her title at Rio 2016. 

After winning the WBO flyweight title in 2019, she retired later that year but returned to the public eye with an appearance in the 18th series of Strictly Come Dancing in 2020. 

Featuring as part of the programme’s first same-sex couple alongside professional Katya Jones – the pair were forced to withdraw from the show in its fourth week after Jones tested positive for COVID-19.
