The ex-wife of basketball legend Michael Jordan, Juanita Vanoy, took to social media to respond to an interesting post from her son Jeffrey. The eldest son of Michael Jordan posted an old image on Threads of his father in a concerned mood in the stands while tagging his mother. Vanoy was quick to respond with a witty remark.

Known for her wit and humor, Juanita Vanoy didn’t miss a beat before sharing her hilarious response to Jeffrey’s post about his father, in which the NBA legend appeared in a thoughtful mood. Vanoy responded in the comments section writing, “👀😡 what’d you do son? 😂😂😂 I love you 🥰”, amusingly indicating what did Jeffery do to get such a reaction from his father.

Jaunita was married to Michael Jordan for 17 years and the two had three children together. Jeffrey is their eldest son born in 1988 followed by Marcus Jordan in 1990. They also welcomed a daughter Jasmine in December 1992. The couple divorced in 2006 after Juanita initially filed for divorce in 2002.

The post read, “To all the parents …if you have multiple children and when talking about them, do you reference/refer in chronological age order?” She also revealed how she refers to her children in the caption of the post.

She wrote, “Someone asked me if I realized that I always refer to my children in order of their age 😂 I’ve never thought about it.For me it’s habitually automatic…Jeffrey, Marcus, andJasmine in that order! How about you out there? Do you do this?”

The recent interaction between Jeffrey Jordan and his mother Juanita Vanoy gave an indication of the dynamic they enjoy. Vanoy had no hesitation in engaging his son in banter before showing her love to him. Interestingly, MJ hasn’t commented or responded to this post or Vanoy’s hilarious take in any way so far.

For now, Jeffrey, who once played basketball for the University of Illinois, was outsmarted by his cheerful mother.
