NBA icon Michael Jordan, regarded by many as the greatest basketball player of all-time, is engaged to breathtaking model Yvette Prieto.
Jordan, 48, proposed to the Cuban-American stunner, 32, over the holidays, his rep said Thursday. The couple have been dating for three years.
In one of the most costliest splits in history, Jordan, the majority owner of the Charlotte Bobcats, divorced wife Juanita Vanoy in 2006 after a 17-year-marriage that produced three children: Jeffrey Michael, 23, Marcus James, 21, and Jasmine, 19.
The Nike pitchman retired as a player in 2003 after a 19-year career in which he captured six NBA championships and five MVP awards.
Prieto, according to Spanish website Hola.com, once dated Julio Iglesias Jr., who’s pop star Enrique’s older brother.
