ANTHONY JOSHUA has given a rare insight into his love life as he opened up on dating.
The British boxing superstar has always kept his romantic side private and instead focussed on his career in the ring.
But during a candid conversation on The Jonathan Ross Show, he said: “I’ve got some time to go on dates now and mingle a little bit.”
But Joshua quickly snapped back to reality when asked if he has time to date as he responded: “Yeah, definitely….
“I don’t know what I’m doing actually. Boxing is my priority.”
Joshua shares his eight-year-old son with former girlfriend Nicole Osbourne, who he still remains close friends with.

But he has been linked with famous faces in the past, including models Cara Delevingne and Bella Hadid.
Joshua, 34, was probed on his dating life by Louis Theroux in a revealing documentary last year.
Asked if he has a partner, he said: “No, I don’t.”
And he insisted he was not lying, telling Louis: “Imagine me going home to my missus now and she said, ‘You denied me!’. I don’t want the stress.”

He is now waiting the winner between Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk’s undisputed title decider.
And Joshua is hoping the face the winner after revealing when he would fight again.
He said: “Around September is when I’ve been told. I was hoping June. I’ve got some time to go on dates now and mingle a little bit.
