Katie Taylor and her husband visited Tiglin men's rehabilitation centre in Ashford, Co Wicklow. The couple reportedly married earlier this year; the husband is American and named Sean (or Shaun). Taylor was first seen wearing a wedding band at press events before her July bout with Amanda Serrano, and her father Pete confirmed the marriage on a podcast. At Tiglin, Taylor spoke about her journey to becoming the undisputed women's world champion and about bringing professional women's boxing to the Olympics. She spent about three hours meeting roughly 120 residents in recovery, with her mother Bridget present, and encouraged attendees about recovery and rebuilding lives.
