Kyrie Irving said his life changed when he discovered his wife, Marlene Wilkerson, was “the one.”
During an appearance on Twitch streamer Kai Cenat’s “Mafiathon 2” stream on Thanksgiving, Irving opened up about the couple’s relationship, which they’ve kept mostly private.
“I knew she was the one for me when you know, I dropped those tears,” Irving said last Thursday. “You drop those tears over the girl you in love with, man, it changes your life forever.”
Irving added that his wife — an influencer and an entrepreneur — enjoys fashion and designs her own clothes.
The NBA champ and Wilkerson, who have two sons together, have yet to publicly confirm they are married.
They previously referred to each other as husband and wife, and were seen wearing rings.
Irving and Wilkerson welcomed their first son, Kaire in 2021.
Wilkerson later revealed she had a natural water birth at home in a video on her YouTube channel.
The couple welcomed another son in October 2022, as first revealed by his former Nets coach Steve Nash.
Irving has a daughter, Azurie Elizabeth, from a previous relationship.
In May, the Mavericks posted a video of Wilkerson and their son sitting courtside watching Irving during warmups.
After being first linked in 2018, Irving and Wilkerson stirred engagement buzz the next year when she was spotted wearing a diamond ring while they attended a Chris Brown concert at Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
Irving and Wilkerson made their red carpet debut as a couple at the 2023 ESPY Awards.
One week later, the brunette beauty shared in a video on YouTube that she took a step back from social media and preferred to live a private life.
Wilkerson, who has a bachelor’s degree in business marketing, is the founder of The Find Guru, a clothing line.
