Personal life

In August 2017, he was sentenced to 20 weeks in prison, suspended for 12 months and ordered to carry out 200 hours of community service for assaulting his ex-girlfriend, Stephanie Davis, with whom he has a child, a son named Caben, born in January of the same year. [5]

In November 2017, he was jailed for triggering his suspended sentence by failing to attend several community service appointments in order to travel to Turkey to receive a hair and beard transplant. Rejecting a recommendation that he be ordered to perform additional hours of community service, District Judge Wendy Lloyd activated his sentence, but reduced the custodial term to 18 weeks as credit for community service already completed.
