What is there to know about Ian Wright's childhood?
Ian Wright was born in London in 1963 to Jamaican parents. His father was absent from a young age and so he and his two older brothers named Maurice and Nicky were brought up by their mother and stepfather.
In his autobiography, A Life in Football, Ian opened up about his difficult upbringing, revealing that his mother drank a lot while his stepfather was a "bully". As a result, Sydney Pigden, who was one of his teachers at his South London primary school, became a surrogate parent to young Ian, helping to keep him on the straight and narrow and encouraging his interest in football.
Is he married?
Ian Wright has been married twice. The former footballer wed his first wife, Deborah, in Mauritius in 1993. The pair met when they were children, but sadly things were not meant to be and they split in 2004 after nine years together.

That was a really horrible period. If there's ever been a time in my life I wish I could change, that would be it."

During his time on I'm a Celebrity...Get Me out of Here! in 2019, Ian revealed that Nancy had no idea who he was when they first met in a pub in Notting Hill as she "didn't know anything about football". He told his campmates: "She mugged me off so beautifully I knew she was the one."
How many children does he have?
Ian is a father of eight! Writing in his autobiography, he revealed: "I've got eight kids with four women. Two I married, two I didn't."
He shares youngest daughters, Lola and Roxanne with his current wife Nancy. With his ex Debbie, he has two more kids named Stacey and Bobbi.
Outside of his marriages, he has another son named Brett and a daughter named Coco, who he supports. He is also the father of professional footballers Bradley and Shaun Wright, although Shaun is adopted from his relationship with Sharon Philips.
