Michael Jordan is without a doubt one of the most talented and influential athletes. And while many are aware of his incredible achievements throughout his career, the basketball star and businessman prefers to keep his personal life private.
The 60-year-old icon married Juanita Vanoy in 1989 and divorced in 2006 after 17 years. The former couple welcomed 30-year-old Jasmine, 32-year-old Marcus, and 34-year-old Jeffrey. Jordan went on to marry Yvette Prieto in 2013, and the pair welcomed their 9-year-old twin daughters Victoria and Ysabel.
Born December 24, 1990, Marcus James Jordan got into basketball in high school and college at the University of Central Florida. After graduating in hospitality management, the sportsman-turned-businessman launched the popular sneaker store Trophy Room. Marcus is currently dating ‘Real Housewives of Miami’ star Larsa Pippen.
Born November 18, 1988, Jeffrey Jordan pursued basketball at the University of Illinois in 2007, continuing his passion for the sport until 2009. He previously revealed he was inspired by his father to follow his dreams. “The competitive atmosphere shaped us in a way that was for the better and got us prepared for what we were gonna face in the real world,” he said to GMA in 2020. Jeffrey is currently married to Radina Aneva and works on the Jordan label.
Born December 7, 1992, Jasmine Jordan studied sports management at Syracuse University, where she met her now-husband Rakeen Christmas. The pair welcomed their first son Rakeem Michal Christmas in 2019. She works in marketing for the Jordan brand. “Between him and my mom, they made sure that we felt like he was normal as can be and we grew up very normal and for that I’m grateful,” she said about her childhood to GMA in 2020.
Michael and Yvette prefer to maintain their 9-year-old twins, Victoria and Ysabel, away from the public eye and have yet to share photos on social media. The couple welcomed their two kids in 2014 in West Palm Beach, Florida.
Victoria and Ysabel are already aunts at a young age, as their half-sister Jasmine is mother to 4-year-old Rakeem. She previously said that her father “loves being a grandpa.” Jasmine explained on Facebook Live that he “had to warm up to [it].” She explained. “At first he wanted my son to call him ‘Mike’ or ‘Michael’ and I’m like, ‘Dad, we’re not doing this. You have to accept the grandpa title. It is what it is.’”
