2023-12-18 // LePodium.NET
Get the scoop on Madonna's secretive relationship with boxing coach, Joshua Popper, including how they met and their public appearances together.

As a renowned musical icon, Madonna has always intertwined her personal life with her art. However, her relationship with Joshua Popper has been kept under wraps despite much speculation. Here's everything you need to know about their budding romance for fans of Madonna and boxing coaches alike.

Who is Joshua Popper?

Popper, primarily known as an athlete, has been making waves in various fields. Born in 1993 in New Jersey, he graduated from Holy Spirit High School in Absecon in 2011. He then excelled as a college athlete at Rowan University, playing as a defensive lineman. In 2013, he played a pivotal role in the team winning the New Jersey Athletic Confederation (NJAC) Championship. Although he briefly joined the NFL teams Arizona Cardinals and Indianapolis Colts in subsequent years, his true passion lies in boxing.

In 2019, Popper moved to New York City, where he established himself as a boxing coach and eventually opened his own gym. Recognized as the NYC Ring Masters Heavyweight Champion in 2023, he has also dabbled in the entertainment industry and is represented by the modeling agency, Soul Artist MGMT. Popper even made an appearance in season seven of the TV show Summer House.

How did Madonna and Popper meet?

Their connection was forged through Madonna's son, David Banda, who began training at Popper's boxing gym, Bredwinners, located in NYC.

How long have they been together?

The exact start date of their romantic relationship remains uncertain. However, it is believed to have begun shortly after Banda started training at Bredwinners. The first public appearance of Madonna and Popper together was in February 2023, when the singer shared a series of photos on Instagram after his boxing match in Brooklyn. They attended more matches together in March, and in April, they enjoyed a piano recital. Madonna also featured Popper in a video announcing her Madonna: The Celebration Tour in Mexico.

Their relationship became more public on December 13th when Popper joined Madonna on stage during her concert at Brooklyn's Barclays Center. They judged a Vogue-inspired set piece called Estere's Ball, where ballroom dancers performed for them. Madonna even gave Popper a kiss on the cheek to show her appreciation. A photo of them holding up "10" signs to their favorite dancers was later shared on Instagram.
