A retaining structure of a front holder and a connector housing, essentially consist of a housing body having a retaining portion, a holding arm having a retaining projection, and a flexible connection portion for supporting the holding arm so that the retaining projection can be engaged with the retaining portion, wherein the flexible connection portion supports the holding arm on a front end of the flexible connection portion in an inserting direction of the front holder into a housing body with respect to the retaining projection, the retaining projection is engaged with the retaining portion in a state where the front holder is retained to the housing body. If a force is applied in a direction releasing the engagement between the front holder and the housing body, the retaining projection abuts against the retaining portion so that the holding arm tries to rock in a direction opposite from the direction releasing the engagement. Therefore, the retained state between the front holder and the housing body is maintained.
