Michael Jordan is a happily married man.

The legendary NBA star has been married to his current wife, Yvette Prieto, for years. The happy couple has multiple children together. 

But this is not Jordan’s first marriage.

The legendary NBA star was previously married to Juanita Jordan from 1989-2006.

Michael and Juanita were married for nearly two decades. They had three children together.

The couple met during the start of Michael’s NBA career and were married at the end of the 1980s. They were together until after Jordan’s playing career ended.

Juanita initially filed for divorce in 2002, though the couple was able to reconcile, at least for a little while. A divorce was finalized in 2007, with rumors of a nine-figure settlement.
