After going through a massive divorce in the past, NBA Great Michael Jordan apparently has a prenup in case of a divorce.
In a recent report, it was revealed that Michael Jordan’s current wife, Yvette Prietto, would inherit $1 million for each year of marriage should the two decide to split, and if married over 10 years, that fee will increase to $5 million annually.
This isn’t unheard of for professional athletes. Gaining generational wealth is common for stars, and since many have lost tens of millions of dollars in settlements after divorces, so Jordan and Prietto agreeing to a prenup isn’t shocking, especially as Jordan learned from his first divorce.
In 2006, Jordan’s divorce from his first wife Juanita Vanoy resulted in a settlement that cost him $168 million of his then $650 million, and if in irreconcilable difference would occur, he would likely want to avoid a comparable payout, even with his current net worth of $2 billion+.
Jordan married the younger Prietto in 2013, meaning the current payout would soon be over $55 million. The couple have two children together.
Jordan’s net worth will dramatically increase, as he recently sold his majority ownership of the Charlotte Hornets for $3 billion, though he will still hold a minority stake. This sale will likely have little impact on hir prenup.
Though the details of Jordan and Prietto’s arrangement is public, we at TPS continue to wish their family the absolute best.
REPORT: Surprise NFC Team Requests Permission From Dallas Cowboys To Interview HC Mike McCarthy

An interesting NFC team has requested permission from the Dallas Cowboys to speak with Mike McCarthy for their head coaching vacancy.
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter and Todd Archer, the Chicago Bears asked the Cowboys for permission to interview Mike McCarthy. The 61-year-old has completed his five-year deal with Dallas, and Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has yet to make a decision on McCarthy’s future with the team.
The Bears fired head coach Matt Eberflus after a 4-8 start and named Thomas Brown the interim HC. Chicago, however, failed to improve after the change and lost four of five games under Brown.
So the Bears’ brass is tasked with finding a new head coach to help promising young quarterback Caleb Williams, who turned in a tremendous rookie year despite being held back by inept coaching.
