Personal Life
Boateng is married to his Dutch wife Adriana. Together they have two children; Eliana and Elisha. He is a devout Christian and says his faith affects the way he conducts himself on the pitch. In an interview with Church Times he explains how his family practices Christianity, "On Sundays, I’d drop my wife off and go to my Ghanaian church. Then we started going to a Dutch church together. We’ve become very devoted Christians. Hearing and acting on the Word is very important."

Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:
“The pursuit of Fashion is the attempt of the middle class to co-opt tragedy. In adopting the clothing, speech, and personal habits of those in straitened, dangerous, or pitiful circumstances, the middle class seeks to have what it feels to be the exigent and nonequivocal experiences had by those it emulates.”
—David Mamet (b. 1947)
“The woods were as fresh and full of vegetable life as a lichen in wet weather, and contained many interesting plants; but unless they are of white pine, they are treated with as little respect here as a mildew, and in the other case they are only the more quickly cut down.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
