Michael Jordan’s Wife Is Reportedly Getting $5 Million for Every Year of Marriage—The Shocking Prenup Deal That Changed After 10 Years Has Fans Stunned
Michael Jordan is known around the world for his extraordinary basketball career, six NBA championships and enormous business empire. But away from the basketball court, one detail about his personal life has attracted considerable attention: the reported financial terms of his prenuptial agreement with his second wife, Yvette Prieto.
According to reports dating back to 2013, the agreement included a financial arrangement that would increase significantly depending on how long the couple remained married.
The reported figure is extraordinary: $1 million for every year of marriage during the first decade, with the amount reportedly increasing to $5 million for each year if the marriage lasted beyond ten years.
The story has continued to attract attention because of the enormous wealth involved and the unusual structure of the alleged agreement.
However, there is an important distinction: the complete prenuptial agreement has not been publicly verified, so these figures should be understood as reported terms rather than confirmed contract details.
The Marriage That Attracted Worldwide Attention
Michael Jordan married Cuban-American model Yvette Prieto on April 27, 2013, in Palm Beach, Florida.
Their wedding was a lavish celebration attended by hundreds of guests, including celebrities, athletes and prominent figures from the entertainment world.
The ceremony took place at the Episcopal Church of Bethesda-by-the-Sea, the same church associated with several high-profile weddings.
Jordan and Prieto had met several years earlier in Miami. Their relationship developed over time, and Jordan eventually proposed in 2011.
Despite Jordan’s worldwide fame, the couple has generally maintained a relatively private family life.
They later welcomed twin daughters, Victoria and Ysabel, in February 2014.
For Jordan, the marriage represented a new chapter after his highly publicized divorce from his first wife, Juanita Vanoy.
