UFC fighter Arman Tsarukyan has shed light on his professional relationship with content creator Nina Marie Daniele, addressing the rumors and speculation surrounding their frequent online collaborations.
Over the past year, Tsarukyan has increased his social media activity, often appearing in entertaining skits with prominent streamers, including Daniele. This has led to questions about the nature of their connection, especially given Daniele’s history of on-camera chemistry with other UFC stars and her own rapid rise in popularity.
During a recent appearance on the PBD Podcast, the No. 2 ranked lightweight contender firmly dismissed any romantic implications. Tsarukyan emphasized that his bond with Daniele is strictly platonic, describing them as “best friends” who collaborate respectfully for content creation. He asserted that genuine romantic relationships are typically kept private and not openly broadcasted.
“Nina and I, we’re best friends,” Tsarukyan stated. “There’s nothing in between and nothing happened because we respect each other, so we just create the content… I just want to say one thing. If you do have something between you, you’re not going to post anything. This is a show, this is just the content that we do together.”
Tsarukyan further explained that Daniele is in a committed relationship with her boyfriend, Jhanelle Castillo, who is also instrumental in their content creation process. “She has a boyfriend, he creates the videos, and he’s always with her. He’s a content creator. He makes every video, and he’s so smart, and he does a lot of social media for her. They work together.”
Arman Tsarukyan himself is married to Milena, and they have two daughters. His wife prefers to maintain a private life away from the public eye.
The Armenian fighter’s recent performance in the Octagon was at UFC Qatar in November, where he secured a submission victory against Dan Hooker. Tsarukyan is currently on an impressive five-fight winning streak within the UFC, boasting a record of 10-2 with notable wins against Charles Oliveira and Beneil Dariush.
