Magic Johnson, Cookie Johnson, 33 Years Together
Magic Johnson is the name synonymous with NBA greatness. Over his remarkable 13-year career, all spent with the Lakers, he bagged it all. Five championships? Check. Three MVPs and Finals MVPs? Absolutely. But behind this basketball legend stands his rock, Cookie Johnson.
Their story began back at Michigan State in 1978. The couple danced around love for a decade before sealing the deal in 1991. Two kids later, their bond is stronger than ever. Here’s the kicker: They came to this world in the same year, 1959. Cookie was born on January 20, while Magic was born on August 14. Indeed, a match made in heaven!
