Oscar de la Hoya’s Wife: ‘The Golden Boy’ Was Only Married to Millie Corretjer

The love life of legendary boxer Oscar de la Hoya has drawn attention. Amidst the curiosity surrounding his marital status, it is evident that ‘The Golden Boy’ has only been married once, and his wife is Millie Corretjer. On paper, they were together for 22 years when he filed for divorce at the start of 2023, but they split back in 2016.

Oscar de la Hoya has admitted that he had been unfaithful to his wife, Millie Corretjer, during their union and had struggled with substance abuse.

Before getting together with his first spouse, the boxer was already a father of three with three different women. Currently, he has been dating a sports reporter since mid-2021.

Born Milagros Corretjer in Puerto Rico, Millie is a recording artist and actress. Her grandfather is the poet Juan Antonio Corretje, also Secretary General of the Puerto Rican Nationalist Party.

Millie, who has three albums to her name, met the former world champ while recording his “Oscar” album released in 2000. The couple married in 2001 and has three children.

According to one report, the couple separated amicably in 2016, and the boxer was heard saying, “Guess what? I am single,” in a video taken that year outside a Hollywood club. His representation did not confirm his relationship status at the time.

Oscar filed for divorce in early January 2023, citing “irreconcilable differences.” In the filing, he asked for joint custody of their children, with Millie getting physical custody.

She had a portrait of him inked on her back three months into their relationship.

Details of their financial settlement were not detailed in the initial paperwork, but the promoter is willing to pay alimony and cover both their legal fees.

Oscar de la Hoya’s girlfriend, Holly Sonders, born on March 3, 1987, came into the boxer’s orbit at one of his events in June 2021. They reportedly became romantic in August of that year.

Holly was a golf champ at Michigan State University and became a sports reporter and fitness model after college. She is currently a golf pundit at the Golf Channel.

She had a portrait of him inked on her back three months into their relationship. The tattoo was of the day he won Olympic gold in 1992. Holly was married before and divorced her first husband, Erik Kuselias, in 2016.

He continued, “And I have to give credit where credit is due. I’m grateful that Barker was there, you know, as a father figure for my daughter.” Shanna was married to the Blink182 drummer Travis Barker between 2004 and 2008, but he remained in his stepdaughter’s life.

Oscar de la Hoya also has kids who are now adults. He had Jacob de la Hoya and Devon de la Hoya, with Toni Alvarado and Angelique McQueen, respectively.

Millie and Oscar had their first child, Oscar Gabriel de la Hoya, in December 2005. They welcomed daughter Nina Lauren de la Hoya two years later in 2007, followed by Victoria de la Hoya.
