Steph & Ayesha Curry’s Full Relationship: From Teenagers To The NBA

by

Wardell Stephen Curry II, 4X NBA champion, arguably the greatest to step at the three-point line, is as devoted on the court as he is at home with his family. Curry’s on-court command is unlike any other player of our generation, and when the first-round pick of the Golden State Warriors handles the ball, there’s no stopping him. The 2X MVP champ and 9X All-Star recklessly controls the court, respectfully. Not only do fans, coaches, and his team support the 2X NBA scoring champion, but he also receives the respect and admiration of his opponents. An outstanding player on the court and an even better man off it, Curry loves the game that has long been in his life. However, he has fallen for a woman just as outstanding as he: Ayesha Curry.

Steph & Ayesha Meet As Teens In Church

Ayesha Curry, entrepreneur and mother of three, helps to complete the Curry package. The duo first met in 2003 at church when they were 14 and 15 years old, and just as any teenage tale goes, the foundation of their relationship was set. Ayesha first thought her now-husband wasn’t her type due to all the girls flocking around him. However, she did make attempts when church services were over to court the person who would later become the father to her children. Yea, that’s right, Ayesha made the first move on the Warriors point guard.

In his biography, The Rise of Steph Curry, his sister, Sydel, recalled Ayesha only saying a few words to Steph before walking away. Clearly and cleverly, Ayesha soon made her way into the record holder’s heart. Though it would take a few years for them to commit, the two would never forget who their high school crushes were.

Steph & Ayesha Reconnect At 2008 ESPYs

The pair reconnected at the ESPYs in 2008 when Ayesha was modeling and acting in Los Angeles. Meanwhile, Steph was playing in the Final Four for his college basketball team, and the two reunited, sparking an ever larger flame than their teen days. Ayesha impressed Steph with her lack of interest in the seriousness of his basketball career. He quickly took to Ayesha, saying, “She really didn’t know what I did at the time, it was pretty refreshing.”

The First Date

This time around, Steph would make the first move by contacting Ayesha on Facebook. Classy and simple. Their first date involved Ayesha picking him up in her old school ‘95 Astro van. The two spent their time drinking chai lattes and taking pictures with Marilyn Monroe impersonators on Hollywood Boulevard. Noting how “funny” and “silly” Steph was, Ayesha said, “He was the absolute opposite of what I thought he was going to be.” It wouldn’t be long for the two to be each other’s first-round picks, and like Steph’s time with the Warriors, there’s seemingly no chance of a breakup. 

Ayesha Says “I Love You” First

In remembering the first time the pair exchanged an “I love you,” Ayesha remarks, “I told him I loved him first, and he said, ‘I feel like I love you too, but I don’t want to say it unless I’m sure because I just want to be sure that when I say it, I really mean it.’ Months later, at a Christmas family gathering, Steph would finally tell Ayesha of his love for her. She recalled that while watching a movie with both their families, Steph “turned to my ear, and he said, ‘I love you.’” And just like that, the two would lead their romance into overtime and create a beautiful family together.

Steph Stages 2010 Proposal As A Family Cookout

Proposing to Ayesha in 2010, Steph staged the proposal to make it seem like the couple was on their way to a family cookout. In speaking in his defining moment as a fiancée, Steph recalled, “So we pulled up to the house, and I stopped in the middle of the driveway, got down on my knee, and went into my spiel.” Moreover, Steph asked Ayesha to marry him in the exact spot they had their first kiss. However, Ayesha recalled the kiss as being odd because Steph went in for it mid-conversation. Yet, the proposal seemed to go much smoother.

The Couple Marry In The Same Church Where They Met

Ayesha describes herself as being in a “state of shock” when Steph dropped to one knee, but she answered her soon-to-be husband with a yes. The pair married in the summer of 2011 at the church where they met as teenagers. The couple welcomed their firstborn, Riley, 10, in 2012. Three years later, in 2015, they welcomed their second girl, Ryan, 7. And to make it a family of five, the pair welcomed their son, Canon, 4, in 2018.

In recounting their time together, the couple uses social media to share their love. Writing on Instagram on their 10th wedding anniversary, Steph said of Ayesha, “Sexy as can be inside and out and continuing to show me how amazing our God is by the creation that you are. Blessed me with the three of the dopest humans around. You are the key to everything that I do.” So much for not falling for an athlete, huh, Ayesha? Her heart had a clear path paved for Steph, and good thing she followed it because what’s a baller without his baddie?

Steph & Ayesha Renew Their Vows

Renewing their vows in 2021, Steph, again, surprised Ayesha. She said, “He even picked out my dress for me and had it waiting.” The couple’s children were present as Riley officiated, and the younger two walked Ayesha down the aisle in a backyard ceremony. Unstoppable on the court and a devoted romantic, there’s no telling what Steph’s next move is. What we do know is that it’s always backed with nothing but love and faith. 

A Marriage That’ll Last a Lifetime

Currently taking time to support Steph, Ayesha also continues to hustle. Taking to the kitchen, Ayesha says she has always had a passion for food. She released her cookbook, The Seasoned Life: Food, Family, Faith, and the Joy of Eating Well, in 2016 and had a show on the Food Network, Ayesha’s Home Kitchen, that aired for two seasons.

The couple also launched their own game show in 2022 on HBO called About Last Night. Being that the pair center their relationship around the little moments they spend alone, Ayesha said she wanted the show to be modeled after “date night.” The couple occasionally appeared on the series, as both keep busy with family and basketball. There’s no stopping the Currys regarding what they set their mind to. Whether it be romance, athletics, or making sure your family is well-fed, Steph and Ayesha are the epitomai of everlasting love, and proud of it!

Kim Burrell Details Phone Call With Jay-Z When Beyoncé Was “Going Through It”

by

Jay-Z and Beyoncé carried the image of a picture-perfect relationship throughout their lives but in 2016, the world found out about the turmoil between the power couple. The moment Bey released Lemonade, she provided a rare glimpse into her otherwise private life. She alleged infidelity during their marriage and the struggles she faced to keep her family together as Jay and Becky with the good hair frolicked around together, allegedly. Then, Jay dropped 4:44, which served as a companion piece that showcased the rapper in his most vulnerable form.

Though Jay-Z and Beyoncé have explored the backstory of their respective projects, Kim Burrell recently shone a light on an interesting conversation she had with Hov. Burrell explained that she received a call from Jay-Z at one point, who told her that Beyoncé listened to nothing else but her music to uplift her spirits. However, Hov identified Beyoncé’s habitual listening patterns as a sign that she was “going through it.”

Jay-Z Calls Kim Burrell

Around the time Jay-Z was working on 4:44, he rang up Burrell to inform her of the impact she had on Beyoncé during a trying time in her life. “At the time, I didn’t know it was going to be the name of the record but he called me and said, ‘Hey, my wife is going through it. I always know because I hear you playing in the background,’” she recalled. “He’s like, ‘My wife locked up in there for 11 hours and I heard nothing but Kim Burrell for 11 hours.’” 

Burrell explained that Jay-Z called her to inform her of the impact that her music had on his wife. “He’s like, ‘Here’s why I’m calling you. When she came out, she was better.’ He said she was so much better. He says, ‘I’m calling you because I need to have a meeting with the person that made my wife better.’” Following the conversation, Kim Burrell said that she flew out to him and met him at the studio where he recorded 4:44. Though her intention wasn’t to appear on the album, she wound up featuring on the titular track which served as a public apology to Beyoncé. Check the clip out above and sound off with your thoughts in the comments. 

Lil Uzi Vert Supports JT On Her Therapy Journey

by

As hard as it may seem to believe at times, most celebrities truly are just like us. In fact, many of those in the limelight who struggle with mental health issues to begin with find their conditions only exacerbated by the constant pressure that comes along with their career. While some opt to keep their problems to themselves, others often use social media to share life updates and be vulnerable with their fans, simultaneously encouraging them to do the same. JT of City Girls fame did just that on Twitter, sharing some details about how she plans to improve her mental health in the coming months.

“Super excited about starting therapy,” she wrote in a tweet last Saturday (March 25). “I encourage you all to do the same🤞🏾!” the “Twerkulator” hitmaker added, making it abundantly clear that there’s no shame in talking to someone about your feelings. While JT didn’t explicitly share what she wants to get off her chest in any upcoming appointments, her life before fame came with plenty of rough moments that are likely still weighing on her. Additionally, her newfound place in the spotlight beside Yung Miami certainly comes with its own downsides for the partners in rhyme.

JT Confirms Her Plans for Therapy

After the 30-year-old shared her excitement about beginning her therapy adventure, countless followers showered her with praise. “It’s literally necessary for everybody, [I don’t know] why people be acting like they don’t need it,” one user pointed out in JT’s replies. Another person chimed in, “I already do, for two years now. It’s life-changing [for real] sis. I pray your experience is as well.” Aside from the fan love, the rap diva also has a strong support system in the form of her long-term partner, Lil Uzi Vert.

The Philadelphia native spoke with TMZ earlier this week, at which time they asked their thoughts on JT seeking mental health help. Uzi sounds to be in full support of their girlfriend and even noted that they’ll be in attendance at some sessions to help out and perhaps work through issues of their own. As for anyone else considering therapy? The “Just Wana Rock” hitmaker thinks there’s no time like the present to work on yourself. “You just gotta do it,” he advised anyone watching. “You just have to really embrace yourself and love yourself.” Check out everything LUV had to say in the video below and tap back in later for more pop culture news updates.

Chlöe Denies Fling With Quavo…Sort Of

by

Latto is the latest Rap star to have her own Apple Music 1 show, and she invited Chlöe for a casual chat. The ladies have been tearing up the charts as hitmaking solo artists, so it was fitting that they caught up about all things music, romance, and gossip. Latto knows all too well what it’s like to answer questions about rumored romances, but she turned the tables when she questioned Chlöe. “The tea was that you was talking to Quavo,” said Latto while on 777 Radio. Chlöe mentioned that they worked on a movie together. Latto replied that the streets weren’t talking about business but pleasure.

This is where viewers believed the ladies were fanning the flames of the gossip. Chlöe and Latto joked about the rumor, but the “Have Mercy” star had yet to deny its truth explicitly. They moved on from the quips, and Chlöe deemed the Migos rapper a “really nice guy.” The ladies also expressed admiration of Quavo’s locs, but that seemed to be where the conversation about a purported relationship ended.

Chlöe & Quavo Are Co-Stars

The clip of the exchange was shared by The Neighborhood Talk, and while it was noted that Chlöe denied the rumors, it wasn’t entirely true. She and Latto joked about it, but there weren’t hard, staunch denials that fans were looking for. Meanwhile, the gossip began after Quavo and Chlöe posted separate images enjoying a beachside vacation. The internet quickly pieced the pictures together and accused the pair of carrying on a secret romance.

However, the duo star in Praise This, an upcoming film also featuring Druski and Tristan “Mack” Wilds. The church youth choir-centered musical movie is slated for arrival in just a few weeks. It comes on the heels of Swarm, Donald Glover’s captivating series on Prime Video. Chlöe stars as the sister to main character Dre, excellently portrayed by Dominique Fishback. Her sex scene with Damson Idris became the talk of social media, but the cast swiftly reacted. They made it clear that it was a work of art for the series and should be treated as such. Still, a naked Chlöe caught everyone’s attention. Check out her exchange with Latto above.

Jake Paul Reportedly Has A New Olympian Girlfriend

by

Jake Paul is easily one of the most interesting figures in the sports world right now. In that same breath, he is one of the most hated. Overall, this is because of his reputation as a YouTube star. Moreover, he is someone who likes to do a lot of trash-talking. Not everyone is a fan of that strategy, which leads to a ton of enemies both in the ring and in the media. For the most part, Paul has been able to back up his talk. His only real blemish on that front was his most recent loss to the likes of Tommy Fury.

Although, it seems like Paul could very well be winning outside of the ring. According to sources who spoke to TMZ, Jake Paul appears to have a new girl in his life. In fact, his alleged new girlfriend is an Olympic silver medalist for the Netherlands. The woman in question is Jutta Leerdam who is a speed skater. Although neither has confirmed a relationship, the two were spotted at dinner on Tuesday. Furthermore, there was plenty of PDA going on, which pretty well hints at the fact that the two are together.

Jake Paul x Jutta Leerdam

Interestingly enough, the two have known each other for quite some time at this point. As TMZ reports, they began following each other on Instagram. Subsequently, they entered the talking phase and are now spending their evenings together. Furthermore, it has been hinted that she will be a guest on Jake Paul’s podcast. This should all be very interesting, and perhaps they will open up about their relationship during the show.

Following his defeat at the hands of Fury, Paul has a lot to think about in terms of his boxing career. He could rematch Fury, or he could just go and start fighting against YouTubers again. It would be a ton of fun to watch him go up against KSI. However, no one truly knows if he is past that stage yet. Give us your thoughts on what Paul should do, in the comments down below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news from the sports world.

Tristan Thompson Cops Massive New Home Next To Khloe Kardashian

by

Tristan Thompson and his relationship with Khloe Kardashian has been under the microscope for years. Overall, this is mostly due to Thompson’s infidelity. Despite getting numerous second chances from Khloe, he has continuously betrayed her trust. However, that does not mean he has been absent from her life. Oh, on the contrary. Thompson has made a serious effort to co-parent his two children with Khloe. In the eyes of Kardashian, Thompson is an amazing father who is always going out of his way for his kids.

In fact, Thompson’s most recent purchase would certainly confirm that to be the case. According to Page Six, Tristan Thompson recently bought himself a brand-new home. This house just so happens to be right down the street from where Khloe Kardashian lives. Overall, this is a very nice home that is located in the Hidden Hills area. The place has over 10,000 square feet. Moreover, it was purchased back in December. However, Tristan Thompson is slowly but surely getting settled into the place.

Tristan Thompson x Khloe

In many ways, one could liken this new arrangement to what we are seeing with Kanye and Kim. Kanye is having a massive home built across the street from where Kim is living. Overall, that has been a huge undertaking. Although, it will definitely go a long way in terms of co-parenting their four kids. Clearly, Thompson is looking to take a page out of that book. Whether or not it pays off for him and Khloe, still remains to be seen.

Based on the aerial view of the home that can be viewed at the link below, there is no doubt that Tristan Thompson will be having lots of fun. The home looks massive and there will be no shortage of things for him to do. In fact, one of the neighbors seems to have a small golf course in their backyard. It must be nice living that life of luxury.

Chlöe Bailey Details Her Relationship With Gunna After His Prison Release

by

Chlöe Bailey likely stood at the top of the list of things Gunna missed the most during his incarceration. The “You & I” collaborators began to develop a friendship that many perceived could be much more than that. However, things between the singer and the DS4EVER rapper came to a halt when the YSL RICO case unfolded. Gunna, along with Young Thug and over two dozen overs, were charged with violating the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization act, while Chlöe’s solo career continued to flourish.

However, the two didn’t lose complete contact since Gunna got caught up in the case. Chlöe appeared on Big Boy’s Neighborhood to discuss her upcoming album, In Pieces. However, the conversation led to her friendship with Gunna. When Big Boy asked Chlöe if she spoke to Gunna since his release, she began to giggle. “I mean, we don’t really talk about a personal type of things but he’s doing good,” she told the host as she tried to keep her response brief.

Chlöe Hasn’t Seen Gunna Since Prison Release

Big Boy acknowledged his efforts as “clickbait,” while prying further on the topic. “I always wish him the best. He’s always been a dear friend of mine so I want to make sure he’s okay,” she said. Chlöe confirmed that she hasn’t seen Gunna since he came home but she said that they’ve had a few conversations since he copped an Alford Plea. Evidently, she’s not holding the snitching allegations over Gunna’s head like a few of his peers in hip-hop, like Lil Baby and Meek Mill.

The rumors surrounding a potential romance began to take shape when Gunna shared a flirty comment after Chlöe delivered a sultry performance at the VMAs in 2021. Then, Gunna took his shot on the Breakfast Club where he made it clear that he’s feeling her. That particular moment turned into the inspiration behind Chlöe’s single, “For The Night.” “I might regret saying this, but hey, maybe it’ll help f*cking streams. I don’t even think he knows this! I wrote ‘For The Night’ about Gunna,” Bailey admitted. “Yep, I said it bitches. I said it. So, you know. Yep. I wrote that song after The Breakfast Club interview I believe.” Check Chlöe’s comments about Gunna above.

Latto Fuels 21 Savage Dating Rumors On New Snippet: Listen

by

Latto and 21 Savage appear to have a relationship that’s deeper than music yet the two continuously deny there’s anything romantic between them. However, both Latto and the Savage Mode left a trail of evidence that suggests otherwise. The “Big Energy” star confirmed that she’s in a relationship but denied that the Her Loss rapper is the mystery man. At the same time, 21 Savage also pushed back against claims that he has a “celebrity girlfriend” like Latto. “I’ve been hot for a long time,” he said during a Clubhouse conversation. “I don’t do all the antics and shit. I don’t got a celebrity girlfriend.”

Perhaps, they’re trying to avoid the fanfare of becoming a power couple by coming out to the public. After all, there’s plenty of pressure that comes with the turf. Still, Latto revealed in February a new tattoo that appears to be of 21 Savage’s government name, Shéyaa. As you could expect, Internet sleuths put two-and-two together while Latto continued to deny their relationship publicly. Last month, Latto doubled down that she was not dating 21 Savage. 

Latto’s Addresses 21 Savage Tattoo In New Snippet

With a new album seemingly on the way, Latto shared a new snippet to her Instagram page. However, one lyric, in particular, stood out. “If he put you in that Lamb, then you would get the tattoo,” Latto raps, which led many to conclude that she was talking about 21 Savage. Though she didn’t address the rumors directly on Twitter as she’s been doing over the past few months, plenty of folks felt as though it was confirmation of their romance

Though it’s unclear when the single might see the light of day, Latto’s currently gearing up to launch her Apple Music show, 777 Radio. She announced the program earlier this week, which we could imagine will be an outlet where she could address rumors and debut new music. Perhaps, we’ll hear the song in its entirety later this week. For now, it seems like 21 Savage and Latto are fine with people carrying on with their own narrative.  Check out her latest snippet above and sound off with your thoughts in the comments below. 

Eva Marcille Files For Divorce From Michael Sterling

by

They were a beautiful blended family who let reality television cameras into their lives, but Eva Marcille and Michael Sterling‘s marriage is over. The model rose to prominence following her explosive stint on America’s Next Top Model years ago. However, she found a new career in unscripted TV after adding her peach to the Real Housewives of Atlanta. The drama unfolded as it usually would, but viewers were able to escape the in-fighting when the Sterlings showed off their growing brood.

Today (March 28), TMZ reported that Eva Marcille is ready to call it quits and filed divorce papers in Georgia. She and her attorney husband seemed to have a cooperative relationship, and there weren’t any obvious signs of things turning sour. TMZ further shared that in the docs, Eva stated she and Sterling were already separated. The reason for the divorce wasn’t implicitly apparent, but she did blame “irreconcilable differences.”

Eva Marcille Wants Custody

Additionally, it’s reported that Eva wants legal and primary physical custody of their three children. The model has also asked the court to issue child support and wants everything she and Michael have acquired during the marriage to be split equally. The actress shares her eldest, Marley Rae, with singer Kevin McCall. She’d previously accused McCall of being violent during their relationship, and his antics on social media caused concern. Eva would later change Marley Rae’s last name to Sterling.

Meanwhile, Eva and Michael were married in 2018, and just this past October, Marcille was raving about her husband. She shared a video of their wedding and seemed overwhelmed with love. The pair even had a TV wedding, exchanging vows on Real Housewives. Neither party has spoken about the split. It is unclear how long they have been separated.

Just a week ago, the paparazzi caught up with Eva was didn’t have an issue referring to Michael as her husband. However, she had yet to share that she was a newly single woman—kind of, so that would be expected. A quick look at Eva Marcilles Instagram page shows that Sterling has been noticeably absent for some time. However, Eva hasn’t removed photos of her ex, hinting that this may be an amicable divorce. Check out more from the family above.

Lil Nas X Appears On “Carpool Karaoke,” Explains Preference Of Dating Non-Celebrities

by

The final episode of James Corden’s late-night show is quickly approaching, which unfortunately means no more of our favourite segment – Carpool Karaoke. Earlier this month we saw the English entertainer and Bad Bunny travel around Los Angeles, and we know that Kim Kardashian is due to appear on an upcoming show. Between those two, though, it was Lil Nas X who took his turn adventuring, chatting, and singing with the jolly host.

Aside from singing along to some of his favourite songs, the Atlanta native also got candid about his love life with Corden. “I  used to use Raya,” Lil Nas confirmed, referencing the popular celebrity dating app. “I think I stopped using Raya… It just like, fell off for me and I just started to meet people in person. And Raya is just very famous, everyone’s famous on there. I’ve met quite a few famous guys. I think I’ve come to know that I don’t like dating famous people,” he later added.

Lil Nas X Sings His Heart Out on Carpool Karaoke

When the host pressed the singer for juicy details, asking if any of his prior dates have been on Carpool Karaoke, the “Old Town Road” hitmaker confirmed, “For sure.” To this, Corden quipped, “Is it Michael Bublé?” causing Lil Nas to respond, “I’m not going to tell you… Michael Bublé?! … Yeah, yeah. You caught me. Could you imagine? Michael Bublé is gay?” Of course, the Canadian icon is straight (and married with three children), but as the foreigner pointed out, “He’s hot and he’s got a hell of a voice.”

As Complex notes, the MONTERO artist has mostly kept his love life away from the spotlight, aside from his romance with Yai Ariza. The performer previously starred in Lil Nas X’s “That’s What I Want” music video, which caused a major stir online at the time. Elsewhere in the news, the 23-year-old jokingly dissed 50 Cent on Twitter over the weekend, earning him plenty of laughs from followers on social media. Read what he had to say to trolls comparing him to the G-Unit artist here, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.
