In the 1980s, Barkley, who was playing for the 76ers, met a beautiful white model named Maureen Blumhardt in a restaurant called City Avenue in Philadelphia. They said it was love at first sight. They quickly exchanged contact information and began dating. They got engaged soon. Charles Barkley and Maureen married in 1989. This marriage was witnessed by a judge, because it was rare for blacks to marry whites in that era. They wanted to avoid the media to avoid any disputes.
It is worth mentioning that his wife is 3 years older than Barkley.
In the same year, Barkley's daughter Christina was born. It is reported that Maureen had a white son before he married Barkley, and there is even a photo to prove it, but there is no report on this matter.
The two have only one baby girl, so they have carefully nurtured Christina since childhood. The daughter started studying at Vilanova University and later entered Columbia University and received a degree in journalism.
After graduation, Christina followed her mother to join the Fresh Start Women’s Foundation, which supports women to lead active lives. They help disadvantaged women to obtain education and provide them with resources and support to improve their lives.

According to the gossip media Awesemo, Christina officially married her boyfriend on March 6, local time. Since her boyfriend is Jewish, the wedding was held in accordance with Jewish habits.

I was very excited about her wedding with Ilya Hoffman. I even wanted to attend. Their wedding has lost weight. I have always tried very hard to lose weight, because obviously they have to lift me up from the chair."
When his son-in-law asked Barkley for his blessing, Barkley was even emotional. When talking about whether TNT colleagues such as Shaquille O'Neal and others attended the wedding, Barkley said that everyone is busy with the All-Stars and therefore could not participate.
Netizens said one after another, "Let’s see who calls father-in-law" "Daughter looks like Rivers?" Looking at this figure, the low back shot should be about the same as Barkley!" "Professional basketball didn't make you lose weight successfully. It seems that you still love your daughter more." "This son-in-law likes Barkley himself. "I remember that Jordan called Barkley together before the Wizards came back in 2001, but Barkley gave up after two laps."
