What comes to your mind when you hear the word “Christmas”? Santa Claus, decorated tree, hot chocolate, gifts, and family games. However, Michael Jordan’s former wife Juanita Vanoy chose to leave out one crucial element, probably Christmas’s most important element. This comes in just a day after the mother of 3 shared a heartwarming post for her youngest son Marcus’ 31st birthday.

Jumping in on the holiday bandwagon, Juanita took to Instagram and shared a post as the world celebrated the birth of Jesus. While it looked similar to every other Christmas decoration, hers had an added twist, as the traditional tree was nowhere in sight.

Michael Jordan’s ex-wife goes for plan B

In a recent Instagram post, Juanita Vanoy shared a picture of her fireplace adorned with red and white Christmas stockings. They were lined up neatly above the fireplace, and a short Santa Claus stuff toy also sat in the front with poinsettia flowers. Huge ornaments surrounded the small table as well portraying a minimalistic design. In the front was a wooden board with fairy lights that spelled “Merry Christmas”. Already predicting the one question that she could get bombarded with in the comments section, Juanita explained the absence of a Christmas tree in the caption along with a heartfelt wish.

She wrote, “This Christmas I didn’t have time to put up a tree so I decorated a table and my fireplace. Sending Christmas Blessing to you all, Have a Merry Christmas and all the best in 2024, let’s make it the best year yet.”
