Brookside was far from done with Lee. Last week, Lee wanted answers from Brookside. The English fighter gave Lee a hug in the middle of the ring, but attacked her. Their feud is heating up.
Outside the ring, Brookside revealed on Sunday that he was starting “a new chapter.” She posted a video of herself getting baptized.
“Something I've been considering for a long time, after being consistent with going to church weekly, reading daily, and the incredible support from my man, it seemed like the easiest decision I've ever made,” she wrote on X. “Thank you to everyone who came out to support me.”
