After a string of failed romances and baby mama drama, Gibbs has found love in the arms of a bombshell brunette, reported The South African website in late May this year.

Gibbs, now 49, has been cricket’s “bad boy” for decades thanks to his involvement in match-fixing scandals, his colourful private life and an explosive book.

According to You Magazine, Gibbs fathered a son, Rashard, with former partner Liesl Fuller in 1996.

In 2007, Gibbs married Tenielle Povey, but their union lasted just one year.

He would go on to date Sherrin Davie and Gill Phillips Clemen in 2014 and 2019, respectively.

Also in 2019, Gibbs was ordered to pay thousands of rands in child support to another baby mama known only as Anna, reported IOL.
