Muhammad Ali has been married four times and has seven daughters and two sons. Ali met his first wife, cocktail waitress Sonji Roi, approximately one month before they married on August 14, 1964.

After the wedding, she converted to Islam and changed her name to Khalilah Ali, though she was still called Belinda by old friends and family.
