He also has kids Shaun, Bradley, Brett, Stacey, Bobbi and Coco from previous relationships.
In his 2016 memoir called A Life In Football: My Autobiography, the 56-year-old opened up about his family life.
He reportedly explained: “I’ve got eight kids with four women. Two I married, two I didn’t.
“Sharon [Philips] is mum to my eldest boys, Shaun and Bradley Wright-Phillips. My third son is Brett.
“Then Deborah [Wright] and I got married in 1993 and we have a son, Stacey, and a daughter, Bobbi.
“My daughter Coco was born in 2006 and I support her but play no other part in her or her mother’s life.
“And I married Nancy [Hallam] in 2011, and we have two daughters, Lola and Roxanne.”
He added: “I didn’t set out for it to be like that. I wanted to get married just once and never planned to have so many children in so many different circumstances.”
Has Ian Wright been married before?
Ian was married once before to Debbie Martin who he tied the knot with back in 1993.
She is mum to his son, Stacey, and their daughter, Bobbi.
