LeBron James and his wife, Savannah James, have often kept their personal lives private, even as the 41-year-old NBA legend has frequently expressed how his wife has always been a pillar of support. For many years after LeBron joined the league, Savannah chose to remain out of the spotlight, focusing on her family behind the scenes.
Savannah James on Her Private Years of Support
A few months ago, in an interview with Essence, Savannah James opened up about the reasons she dedicated herself to her family for so long. She explained, “It’s very important. I would say that not only do I pour into LeBron, but just pouring into the entire family. I think it just gives a sense of grounding for us.”
The popular skincare founder added, “And then my role as a mother, I’m supposed to pour into them and I do that with pride. Really, that spot for us was very regular.”
Savannah continued, “I feel like that’s kind of why it also showed and came through so well just because that’s how I show support for him on a daily basis. So yeah, I think it was very natural.”
It is only in recent years that Savannah James has become a regular presence in the public eye, after spending years supporting the NBA legend in private.
LeBron James Credits Savannah for Changing His Life
While there have been many negative rumors about their marriage, the Los Angeles Lakers star has often credited Savannah for changing his life for the better. For context, Savannah discovered she was pregnant with their child when she was only 16 years old. Despite the challenging circumstances, LeBron stayed by her side as he was drafted by the Cleveland Cavaliers. Savannah cheered him on as he quickly rose to become one of the most talented players in the world.
Today, both LeBron and Savannah James seem to be in one of the happiest phases of their lives with their three children.
