Ronda Rousey is back! On social media! Kind of!
Despite being a steady presence on the feed of any Instagram or Twitter user, the former UFC women’s bantamweight champion has been eerily quiet since getting knocked out by a vicious Holly Holm head kick at UFC 193. That has left many to wonder what condition Rousey is in following her first loss, and how she might be recovering from that shocking upset.
While she hasn’t reopened that door for fans quite yet, they can sleep soundly knowing that she’s healthy, in good spirits and had a happy Thanksgiving with her family. Or at least, that’s what this Instagram post by her mother, the in-your-face AnnMaria De Mars, would suggest:
Rousey can be seen on the left, alongside her mother, smiling and looking no worse for wear.
That’s sure to please Rousey diehards. The last time she was spotted in public came in the days following UFC 193. TMZ was on the ground, awaiting her arrival at Los Angeles International Airport, and filmed her as she shielded her face with a pillow. It was an awkward scene at first, but perhaps became a tad worrisome when Rousey went radio silent, save for an ominous post alluding to her return on Instagram and Twitter.

Obviously, this does not shed any light on Rousey’s future plans, either in or out of the cage. If Rousey does opt to fight again, look out for a blockbuster rematch with Holm at UFC 200 in July 2016.
