LeBron James on Love and Hardships: 'Ain't Always Roses' with Savannah
SHOCKING ADMITTIONS FROM THE HOOP KING: LEBron JAMES' SECRET RELATIONSHIP STRUGGLES EXPOSED
In a bombshell interview, NBA legend LeBron James has opened up about the not-so-picture-perfect reality of his two-decade-long relationship with his high school sweetheart, Savannah. The couple, who tied the knot in 2013 and have been inseparable ever since, has been dealing with their share of challenges behind closed doors.
The 40-year-old basketball icon, who is gearing up to play his 23rd season in the league, shared candidly about the ups and downs of their relationship in an interview on "360 With Speedy" that left fans talking. "A relationship is never picture perfect," he confessed. "But if you're okay with working through the hardships and the adverse moments, then it will make it all worth it."
James and Savannah's marriage has been a subject of fascination for their fans, who have often wondered how they maintain their strong bond despite being together for over 20 years. However, according to James, even he knows that no relationship is immune to conflicts. "S* ain't always gonna be a bed of roses, in any relationship, let alone someone you're living with for over 20 years," he admitted.
But what are the secrets behind their enduring love? According to James, communication and honesty are key. "Being honest is number two," he emphasized. "You have to be okay with being uncomfortable in relationships sometimes." He even went as far as saying that his wife's happiness is his top priority: "The saying happy wife, happy life: that s* real, bro."
James' candid admissions come at a time when rumors are swirling about his impending retirement from the game. Just last June, he was overheard discussing how Savannah wants him to hang up his sneakers in the next year or so. But when asked directly by Speedy Morman, James seemed non-committal: "Retirement is coming, it is coming... It's just not here yet."
Despite the rumors of retirement looming on the horizon, James is still going strong with the Lakers, who drafted his eldest son Bronny in the second round last year. The 20-year-old basketball prodigy has been making waves in the league, and James couldn't be prouder.
In an earlier interview for Netflix's "Starting 5," James gushed about his wife, saying, "I wouldn't be who I am, I wouldn't have the career that I've had, I wouldn't be who I am, without her." Savannah chimed in, calling them "two peas in a pod."
The couple has three beautiful kids together – Bronny, 20; Bryce, 18; and Zhuri, 10. With over two decades of marriage under their belt, James and Savannah have undoubtedly been through their fair share of ups and downs.
But what's clear is that their love for each other remains unwavering. As the NBA legend prepares to enter his eighth season with the Lakers this fall, fans can't help but wonder: will he finally retire as planned, or will he continue to defy age and cement his legacy on the court? Only time will tell.
