LeBron James may have lived a complicated year with the Los Angeles Lakers, but in his personal life, things are going great, and it is that he is on his ninth anniversary with his wife Savannah, and both dedicated tender and ardent messages to each other on their social networks.

“I’m still hungry for more” LeBron reviews Lakers’ woeful campaign
On his Instagram story, James shouted out to his wife with a glam photo of the two of them from their recent shoot with Vanity Fair magazine. The 4-time MVP captioned the photo, “Queen,” and added, “P.S., SO DAMN SEXY! WOW,” along with some heart and drooling face images.
Savannah and LeBron married nine years ago, but their relationship goes back much further-the two met in high school and have been together for 21 years.
Savannah also shared a tribute post on Instagram to celebrate their special day, with an adorable photo of them toasting with friends, and wrote as a caption, “9 years down (21), forever!!! Cheers, my love!!! Happy anniversary!!!! #JamesGang.”
LeBron James and Savannah’s love story
In 2018, Savannah told Cleveland magazine that she met her future husband when she was a 16-year-old high school sophomore and LeBron, who was a year older, was attending a rival school. She had asked a friend for his phone number, she said, but decided to take LeBron’s number instead.
“One day I was sitting around, I was probably bored or something, and I said, ‘Oh, I forgot! I have this number for this guy I can call.’ He seemed interested, so let’s see.’” she said.
LeBron invited her to one of his basketball games and the pair met up with friends to go to Applebee’s afterward. Their first solo date, at Outback Steakhouse, came a few weeks later.
