Although Michael’s professional life is very well known, his personal life is not very well known especially regarding his love life. Michael’s first wife Juanita Vanoy gave him three celebrity offsprings, but Michael and Juanita’s relationship ended in 2006.
After splitting from Juanita, Michael met Yvette Prieto, a former model living in Miami, Florida. Michael and Yvette are now married but they keep their relationship super private.
Below is a list of things you probably don’t know about Michael’s wife Yvette Prieto

She’s Cuban Born
Yvette Prieto was born on March 26, 1979 in Cuba, but she grew up in Miami Florida which is the perfect place to celebrate her Cuban Heritage. In Miami, she worked as a model for designers like Alexander Wang. Given her stature of five foot six inches, she probably did a lot of print jobs as opposed to runway work.
She Has Famous Exes
Apparently, Yvette was used to the spotlight before Michael. She dated Enrique Iglesia’s brother Julio Iglesias Jr. Julio certainly isn’t as famous as his brother, but he did find some success with music and television work that was geared toward the Latin community. Being a model at the time, Yvette was the perfect companion.
She Found Love In The Club
In 2007, just one year after divorcing Juanita Vanoy, Michael met Prieto while visiting a Miami nightclub. Given how they met, it’s obvious that Michael was initially attracted to Yvette’s outer beauty. However, considering how long they’ve lasted for over 13 years, he’s someone who appreciates her incredible character as well.
She Almost Had A Royal Wedding
Yvette and Michael’s 2013 wedding was super lavish. They had a palm beach wedding ceremony which featured a beautifully decorated 40 thousand square foot tent for dancing, food and fun. Moreover, Robin Thicke and Usher were wedding singers.
Michael Is Her First Husband
When Michael and Yvette were wedded in 2013, Yvette was 34 years old and Michael was her first husband. So Yvette was second in line to Juanita Vanoy (Michael’s first wife) and the mother of three of his children. Luckily for Yvette Prieto, Michael and Juanita are pretty chill co-parents. They don’t have much drama.

She Had Money Issues
Yvette Prieto filed for bankruptcy in 2002 when she was only 23 years old. Yvette’s past is pretty murky so it’s hard to say exactly why she was in such a bind. One can only hope that her history of dating wealthy men isn’t based on some desperate money situation. One thing is for sure, she’s not hunting for cash now.
She Has A Great Reputation
Yvette’s ex Julio Iglesias Jr has only great things to say about his former partner. Apparently she’s beautiful inside and out and has a big heart. It’s rare for someone to speak kindly about his or her ex. Michael is surely a lucky man.
She Loves Basketball
Michael Jordan is a basketball legend, it only makes sense that he can’t stay away from the game. Currently the owner of the Charlotte Hornets basketball team, Michael frequently watches basketball games and his wife regularly accompanied him to enjoy the game.
