Earlier this year, rumours were rife surrounding Amir and Faryal's split after it was hinted that the boxer had asked a model to visit him in San Francisco around Valentine's Day.
Sometime after, the mum shared an image of herself, Amir, and Lamaisah with the caption 'Family.'
Amir had also previously stated that he and Faryal was filing for divorce late last year.
On Snapchat, he said:
"So me and Faryal are not together. I have filed for a divorce.
"I hear she has just announced she is pregnant. She didn't tell me. I had to read it on social media."
