UFC President Dana White ‘Embarrassed’ After Getting Caught Slapping Wife In Club After She Hit Him: ‘It’s Never Happened Before’
Dana White and his wife Anne White — who have been married for 26 years and have known each other since grade school— were caught on camera partying in a crowded nightclub in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.
At some point, shortly after bringing in the new year, the couple got into it. While sitting up in a VIP area above the dance floor with their friends, Dana was caught on camera leaning into his wife to say something to her. The next thing viewers see is Anne slapping Dana across the face.
Dana immediately reacted, and slapped her right back in the face. Friends of the Whites tried to jump in and yank the two partners off of each other.
UFC President Dana White has been under fire ever since getting caught slapping his wife (after she hit him) in a club on New Year’s Eve 2023.
Onlookers in the club claim that both of them were “heavily intoxicated” prior to the brief domestic altercation.
While responding to the viral video, Dana admitted to TMZ that he had for sure been drinking heavily with his wife, but he’s not making any excuses for his actions.
Dana said, “You’ve heard me say for years, ‘There’s never ever an excuse for a guy to put his hands on a woman,’ and now here I am on TMZ talking about it.”
Both Dana and his wife claim “nothing like this has ever happened before” and that they “were both drinking too much and things got out of control, on both sides.”
Wholly, Anne said, “To say this is out of character for him is an understatement. Nothing like this has ever happened before. Unfortunately, we were both drinking too much on New Year’s Eve and things got out of control, on both sides. We’ve talked this through as a family and apologized to each other. I just hope people will respect our privacy for the sake of our kids.”
