Dana White's 3 Kids: All About Dana III, Aidan and Savannah

Dana White's sons and daughter are involved in sports in different ways

Dana White is well-known as the CEO and president of the UFC, but he’s also the father of three kids: Dana III, Aidan and Savannah.

Dana and his wife, Anne White, welcomed their eldest child, son Dana III, in 2001, before another son, Aidan, arrived the following year. They completed their family in 2006 with a daughter, Savannah.

While Dana dedicated his career to martial arts, he said in an October 2009 interview with Yahoo! Sports that he doesn’t mind what his children do as long as it makes them happy.

“I want my kids to do something they absolutely love to do," he shared. "If my kids, when they’re 18 if they come to me and say, ‘Dad, I love pumping gas.’ ... I’d say, ‘Go for it.’ ”

In the past, the entrepreneur also discussed his childhood and relationship with his own parents and revealed how it shaped him into the father he is today.

Here’s everything to know about Dana White’s kids: Dana III, Aidan and Savannah.

Dana White III, 23

Dana and Anne welcomed their first child, son Dana White III, in June 2001.

Dana III attended Faith Lutheran High School in Las Vegas before enrolling at the University of San Diego in 2020, where he plays football. According to The San Diego Union-Tribune, Dana III participated in flag football from the second to the fourth grade and transitioned to tackle football in the years after.

Meanwhile, he’s also enjoyed martial arts and wrestling, following in his father’s footsteps. However, Dana III revealed that his dad has never pressured him to take up mixed martial arts as a career.

“He loves football. It’s literally his passion. The way I feel about fighting is the way he feels about football,” the UFC star said.

Dana III has also shared that he “really looks up” to his father because he didn’t come from a privileged background and worked hard for his success.

In return, Dana has celebrated his children on special occasions, including his elder son's birthday. The businessman booked Kendrick Lamar to perform at Dana III's sixteenth birthday party in June 2017 at the Brooklyn Bowl in Las Vegas, TMZ reported.

Today, Dana III is active on social media with over 30,000 Instagram followers. On the platform, he often posts photos with his friends and of himself playing football. Like his father, he’s also a keen snowboarder and surfer.

Aidan Charles White, 22

Dana and Anne’s second child, Aidan White, was born in July 2002.

Similar to his older brother, Aidan has a large following on Instagram, with an audience of over 38,000. The two also shared a love of football until Aidan decided to focus on boxing instead.

In March 2018, he made his amateur boxing debut at the St. Patrick’s Day Boxing Show in the Junior Golden Gloves Division, beating Andre LeClerc.

His father posted a photo of him on X (formerly Twitter) before the fight, and later told former Muay Thai fighter John Wayne Parr on Instagram the event's backstory. Dana shared that he didn't see the change in sports coming but embraced it.

"For some reason a couple months ago as soon as footballs season ended my son Aidan says 'Dad I want a boxing fight' and I said 'Cool, let's do it,' " he wrote in a comment.

Speaking on Theo Von’s podcast This Past Weekend in November 2023, Dana described his second son as "artistic" and "talented," praising his athletic abilities. The father of three also revealed that Aidan translated his sports ambitions into a career, working for the content company Thrill One.

According to Aidan's Instagram, he's on the ground when it comes to the Nitrocross part of the business.

When he's not on duty, he also enjoys other sports, like surfing, snowboarding and skateboarding.

Savannah White, 18

Dana and Anne’s youngest child and only daughter, Savannah White, was born in August 2006.

During his conversation on the This Past Weekend podcast in November 2023, Dana revealed that after their first two children, Anne had an ectopic pregnancy, and doctors informed her “she wouldn’t be able to have kids anymore.”

Five years later, though, she got pregnant with Savannah, and Dana considered her a "miracle baby.”

The UFC founder also described what it’s like to raise a daughter after raising sons, calling it “tougher.” He explained that there was a "natural" instinct to look out for her.

“As a dad, you have to sort of oversee and protect your daughter more than you did your sons," Dana added.

Throughout her life, Savannah's parents have kept her from the public eye. In the fall of 2023, her dad shared that she was a cheerleader in high school, who was starting to think about what college she wanted to attend.

While she leads a more private life than her siblings, Savannah is still celebrated behind the scenes.

In August 2022, The Las Vegas Review-Journal reported that, like he did for her brothers, Dana threw Savannah a big party when she turned 16, renting the Jewel nightclub in Las Vegas for a night. Among the performers were Lil Uzi Vert, DaBaby, Louis the Child and DJ MAKJ.
