Michael Jordan & Yvette Prieto – 11 Years

Few athletes in the record have had such a profound influence on their game as Michael Jordan. He gained a great degree of fame in basketball, and his private life is equally successful. Michael didn’t meet his spouse of seven years, Yvette Prieto, until 2008, a decade after he retired from the Bulls, having won six NBA championships. Michael had been estranged for one year when he saw the Cuban model at a bar in 2007. The two soon started dating and settled in together in 2009. After three years of dating, Michael proposed to Yvette in December, and they got married in April 2013.

It didn’t take long for the Airman and his new wife to start a family. The newlyweds declared their pregnancy seven months after walking down the aisle, and Yvette eventually gave birth to identical twin daughters, Victoria and Ysabel. The famously private couple has spent very little time in the spotlight since then. Though we rarely see them at special events together, the pair is still as sweet as ever.
