How long has LeBron James been married? Taking a closer look at the LA Lakers superstar's marital life

LA Lakers superstar forward LeBron James is arguably the greatest basketball player of all time. However, James has always made it clear that family is the most important thing to him. James has often talked about how he would be nothing without his wife, Savannah James. In an Instagram post earlier this year, LeBron expressed his immense appreciation for Savannah:

“Quick letter to my Queen, simply just letting you know that I appreciate you more than this world has to offer. Been my rock holding this sh*t down from the very first jump ball!! With all the BS that comes into our lives throughout the years and on the daily you’ve never waved, fluttered, or allowed yourself to simply not be strong for me, us but more importantly YOU!”

In 2018, James also raved about his wife to The Hollywood Reporter:

“Savannah was down when I was at my high school, no cameras, no lights. And she was there with me. You wouldn’t be talking to me right now if it weren’t for her.”

LeBron James and Savannah James officially got married on September 14, 2013. Their wedding took place at the Capella chapel in the Fairmont Grand Del Mar. However, their relationship dates all the way back to high school where they met in the early 2000s in Akron, Ohio. The two attended rival high schools before connecting through a mutual friend. They have been together ever since.
