<p>Things got a tad heated for Dana White and his wife Anne while they were out at a nightclub recently. The <a href="https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/423348-dana-white-gets-brutally-honest-about-jake-paul-vs-anderson-silva-news" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">UFC president </a>was seen in a video arguing with his wife in a VIP section before Anne slapped him in the face. Quickly, White returned the strike with one of his own ahead of the couple being pulled apart.</p>



<p>The video quickly circulated on social media, and the Whites returned with statements about the controversy. &#8220;You&#8217;ve heard me say over the years, &#8216;There is never, ever an excuse for a guy to <a href="https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/446811-miles-bridges-hit-with-probation-in-domestic-violence-case" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">put his hands on a woman</a>,'&#8221; White told <em>TMZ</em>. &#8220;And now here I am on <em>TMZ</em> talking about it.&#8221; </p>

<p>&#8220;My wife and I have been married for almost 30 years.&#8221; He added, &#8220;We&#8217;ve known each other since we were 12 years old. We&#8217;ve obviously been through some sh*t together, we&#8217;ve got three kids.&#8221;</p>



<p>White called the situation &#8220;horrible,&#8221; adding that he&#8217;s &#8220;embarrassed&#8221; by it all. He also stated he isn&#8217;t trying to make excuses for <a href="https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/438488-ashanti-voices-support-for-sister-in-honor-of-domestic-violence-awareness-month" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">the incident</a>. &#8220;It&#8217;s never happened before. It&#8217;s the first time it&#8217;s ever happened.&#8221;</p>



<p>&#8220;But it&#8217;s also one of those situations that right now we&#8217;re more concerned about our kids,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;We have three kids, and obviously, since the video popped up, we&#8217;ve shown the kids the video, and we&#8217;re more focused on our family right now.&#8221;</p>

<p>Anne White also spoke with <em>TMZ</em> and confirmed that this isn&#8217;t how she and her husband settle conflicts.</p>



<p>&#8220;<a href="https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/414531-dana-white-reveals-if-daniel-cormier-will-replace-him-as-ufc-president-news" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Dana and I</a> have been married for almost 30 years,&#8221; she said. &#8220;To say this is out of character for him is an understatement. Nothing like this has ever happened before. Unfortunately, we were both drinking too much on New Year&#8217;s <a href="/profile/Eve" class="text-word" target="_blank" >Eve</a>, and things got out of control on both sides.&#8221;</p>



<p>&#8220;We&#8217;ve talked this through as a family and apologized to each other. I just hope people will respect our privacy for the sake of our kids.&#8221;</p>
