LeBron James and Savannah James' relationship timeline

LeBron and Savannah's love affair began in high school, when a mutual friend informed Savannah that LeBron had asked for her phone number. She took his number instead and called him later. He invited her to his game, which ended with the team going to Applebee's, and shortly after that, he asked her out on a date.

LeBron was quoted saying that she was with him even when he had nothing, and he praised her for motivating him to succeed.

In 2003, during LeBron’s rookie year in the NBA, the couple was expecting their first child, LeBron James Jr., aka Bronny. Nearly three years later, the couple welcomed their second child, Bryce Maximus.

After being together for a decade, the Lakers star finally proposed to Savannah on New Year's Eve 2011, who said yes, minutes after midnight. In 2013, they officially tied the knot at the Capella Chape Grand Del Mar Hotel, San Diego, in the presence of friends and family. The following year, they welcomed their third child and first girl, Zhuri.

The pair has been together for nearly 21 years, married for 11 years, and their relationship is still as strong as ever.
