Though they quickly became one of Hollywood’s most powerful couples, Stephen and Ayesha Curry’s love story had a humble beginning.
The NBA star was 15 years old when he and Ayesha, then 14, met at church in North Carolina. Though they’ve both since admitted they were fond of each other at a young age, it wasn’t until years later that they would reconnect as adults and give romance a shot.
“I always had my eye on her, but I got a little shaken, for sure,” Stephen previously told Parents Magazine of their teenage years.
A few years later, the Golden State Warriors point guard finally got the chance to pursue Ayesha while on a trip to Los Angeles, where she was living. During his West Coast visit for the ESPY Awards, Stephen and Ayesha spent the day together as just friends, and things later turned romantic.
The couple tied the knot in July 2011. Ayesha put her acting career on hold after finding out she was pregnant with their daughter Riley, who was born in 2012. The duo later welcomed daughter Ryan, son Canon and son Caius in 2015, 2018 and 2024, respectively.
