He said, “Drake came up with that line in the song, Chef Curry with the pot and kind of took off from there. But the real Chef Curry is Ayesha… so that nickname can never be used for me inside the house. If it’s a fan base, cool they can use whatever. But she’s the real Chef Curry.”

Stephen Curry surely is a menace for defenders on the court. He brings in all the moves and is a true nightmare. However, his wife is one of the leading female culinary giants. She has multiple tv shows, books, and also multiple brands she’s associated with. Ayesha continues to grow as a chef and it is only right for Steph to give up his title for her.
