Michael Jordan’s Ex Juanita Sued Him 1 Year after He….
Michael Jordan is arguably the greatest NBA player of all time, but it didn’t prevent his ex-wife, Juanita Vanoy, from suing him one year after he popped the question. They married shortly after.
Relationships are tricky, and it gets more complicated if you are a professional basketball player spending half of your time on the road with tons of money and aggressive groupies willing to do anything to be with you.
Michael Jordan knows it all too well. Still, he and Juanita Vanoy were married for 17 years. The start of their romance was quite unusual as she sued him before tying the knot.
In 1985, a couple of years before Jordan’s prime years started, he met Vanoy. Born in June 1959, she was a loan officer from the Southside of Chicago trying to get an associate’s degree at a junior college.
The couple met through a mutual friend at a Bennigans restaurant in Chicago after one of the Bulls games. The person who introduced them considered they would make a good couple, and they were right.
