Who is Lebron James’ wife and how many kids do they have?
LEBRON James and his wife Savannah have been dating since the two were teenagers.
Savannah has stuck by her superstar husband through the highs and lows of his career, and the pair have welcomed several children.
Who is LeBron James’ wife?
LeBron James is married to high school sweetheart Savannah Brinson, who is now a James.
She is an entrepreneur and philanthropist from Ohio.
In 2018, James started a furniture line with American Signature called Home Court.
She also founded a mentorship program called Women of Our Future.
She boats over 1.6million followers on Instagram and often shares pictures of the James family.
How did Savannah and LeBron meet?
The two met as teenagers in their hometown of Akron, Ohio before LeBron began his professional NBA career.
They went to rival high schools and met when he was 17 and she was 16-years-old.
The teenagers crossed paths when a mutual friend told Savannah that LeBron had asked for her phone number.
“I’m like, ‘Um, nope. I’ll take his number,” she told Cleveland Magazine in 2018.
“One day I’m sitting around — I was probably bored or something — and I’m like, ‘Oh, I forgot! I have this number for this guy that I can call. He seemed interested, so let’s see.’”
Although Savannah didn’t know much about LeBron’s basketball talent, she was supportive of her boyfriend from his early days.
“Savannah was with me shooting in the gym when I [had] absolutely nothing,” LeBron told The Hollywood Reporter in 2018.
“[Savannah] was down when I was at my high school, no cameras, no lights. And she was there with me. You wouldn’t be talking to me right now if it weren’t for her.”
On September 14, 2013, LeBron and Savannah officially tied the knot at the Capella Chape Grand Del Mar hotel in San Diego.
“He is truly a king to his queen if you will,” Savannah said to Cleveland Magazine about her husband.
“He treats me with so much respect — I mean, it’s hard to not love him, with the way that he is with me and the kids and his mom and just everyone who’s around him. He’s a really, really humble guy for everything that he has and everything that he’s done.”
How many kids do they have?
The couple have three children.
In her senior year, she got pregnant with her first child, Bronny, who was born in 2004.
She gave birth to son Bryce in 2007, and following that, daughter Zhuri in 2014.
Bronny is set to follow in his father’s footsteps as a basketball star.
