well as Scottish club Celtic. In February 2015, he said that three of his children had joined Blackpool's academy. As of October 2021, his eldest son, Isaac, was playing for Bamber Bridge. His middle son, Sky, was named as an under-21 player in Blackpool's squad for the 2021–22 EFL Championship campaign. He signed a professional contract at the end of the previous campaign.

Controversies In January 1999, Sinclair was convicted of causing criminal damage to a car, following a night of drinking with other West Ham players at the club's Christmas party in Romford. In November 2017, Sinclair was arrested on suspicion of drink driving, common assault and criminal damage after a woman was hit by a car in Lytham St Annes. On 2 January 2018, Sinclair was convicted of drink driving, urinating in a police car and racially abusing a police officer by calling him a 'white cunt'. He was sentenced to 150 hours of unpaid work, disqualified from driving for 20 months and ordered to pay £500 compensation to the abused police officer. Following this conviction, he was subsequently fired from his role as a BBC pundit. Following the death of Elizabeth II, Sinclair tweeted asking why "black and brown" people should mourn. His comments were met with widespread condemnation, including that of his fellow TalkSPORT colleague Simon Jordan. TalkSPORT subsequently announced that Sinclair would not be featured on air at the station whilst an investigation into the tweet was carried out.
