The Antetokounmpo family is renowned for being loving, and on the Greek Freak's birthday in December, Mariah shared a heartfelt Instagram message:
“Giannis, I seriously adore everything about you. My life would be dull without your light. The father you are to our boys is breathtaking. Happy Birthday My Love I promise this year is going to be magical.”
Mariah grew up in Fresno and attended Bullard High School.

She has worked in various roles related to sports and management. Her background in sports management played a role in her connection with the “Greek Freak.”
She crossed paths with Giannis In 2014, in his second year in the NBA. Mariah was then interning with the Philadelphia 76ers.
Their relationship began during this period, well before Giannis achieved stardom. Mariah has remained by Giannis's side since the early days of his professional career and continues to be his partner.
