It’s no secret that Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James has a close-knit relationship with his mother, Gloria James. After all, the 40-year-old’s mother proudly calls herself “Mother of the King” and even has a tattoo that reads “Queen James.” Goia remains a major fixture in James’ professional as well as personal life, often seen cheering for him from the stands. However, despite all of this success, the LA star’s mother remains as grounded as ever. In fact, she’s rarely seen in public events despite her son being in the spotlight for a couple of decades.

You could say that LeBron’s mother lives a low-key life. But don’t let that trick you into believing that she doesn’t spend enough time with her family. That’s because whether it’s supporting her son, daughter-in-law, or even grandchildren, Gloria doesn’t miss a chance. That is exactly what was on display when King James posted a new story on his Instagram account on Sunday. Last night, the Lakers’ superstar made headlines by being part of the Fanatics Fest alongside other icons such as Tom Brady and rapper Jay-Z.

LeBron James became the talk of the town after the seven-time Super Bowl winner named him the ‘greatest-ever’ during the event. However, today’s focus isn’t about that. It’s about what happened after the event. Today, James posted a wholesome story in which the Lakers veteran is seen enjoying a lovely lunch with none other than his mother. However, while the mother and son duo were having a great meal together, people couldn’t help but notice that James’s better half, Savannah, was nowhere to be seen.

This raised quite a few eyebrows, as the James family more often than not is seen spending quality time together. There can be several reasons why the mother of three was not with LeBron James and Gloria at the table, but the most likely of them all is that Savannah was tied up with work. If you’re not aware, James’ wife has started her own beauty and skin care brand called ‘Reframe‘, which is something she holds in high regard. Apart from that, Savannah is also the host of her fan-favorite podcast and also mother of three kids.

So, things can get a bit busy for the LA Lakers’ star’s wife. Meanwhile, it seems that Gloria isn’t just showering her son with all the love, as her grandchildren also seem to be getting their fair share.

The pictures of her together with her grandson, Bryce, showcased just how close-knit the James household is with each other and the values that have been rooted in them. It was heartwarming, to say the least. Nonetheless, it’s great to see LeBron James’ second son also follow in his father’s footsteps with Bryce joining the Wildcats to play collegiate basketball. It will be interesting to see how this journey goes for Bryce, as he hopes to join his father in LA.
