It is no secret that Michael Jordan is one of the richest athletes ever. After the divorce from Juanita Vanoy, Jordan started dating model Yvette Prieto. Jordan asked Yvette to marry him on Christmas 2011 with a massive ring. It was a huge emerald-cut rock with three striking bands. The value of the ring could be over $1 million as per Hello Magazine.

To comprehend how pricey that was, the ring is five times the value of Meghan Markle’s ring from Prince Harry, which was estimated to be worth about $200,000! Markle’s engagement ring reportedly consists of 3.8 carats in total, with a 3-carat cushion-cut stone in the center. So one can imagine what Prieto’s ring might contain.

In April 2013, His Airness and Prieto tied the knot in front of friends and family in a star-studded wedding. Notably, the wedding tent used was the largest in history!

Understandably, it did not come cheap. The pair reportedly slashed over $10 million on their marriage and the events that followed. Their wedding took place at the Bethesda-by-the-Sea church in Florida. The church also hosted another big wedding before, with former US President Donald Trump marrying Melania Trump at the same venue.
