The Philadelphia 76ers’ player Joel Embiid and his wife Anne de Paula are living the dream.
The Sports Illustrated model took to Instagram on Saturday to share photos from the couple’s wedding in Southhampton.
The caption that the 28-year-old de Paula included read, “You and me forever,” in French, according to Google Translate. “We were made to be together.”
Photographs taken during the event show little Arthur, who will turn three in September, walking over to watch his parents exchange vows. Embiid and de Paula are his parents.
Both he and his son wore matching white tuxedo jackets with black bowties to honor the 29-year-old Sixers great. On the other hand, de Paula was absolutely stunning in her long-sleeved lace wedding dress.
Cryder Beach was the site of the wedding ceremony and photo ops for Embiid and de Paula, who were originally linked in 2018.
Michael Rubin, who is now the CEO of Fanatics and was a partner of Embiid’s and a former owner of the Sixers, was present at the wedding and shared an Instagram Story snapshot of the happy couple.”Congratulations, Anndepaula and @joelembiid!” “I genuinely adore you all,” Rubin wrote, adding two red heart emoticons as a companion.A wedding photo of the happy couple and the words “Congratulations to Arthur’s parents!” were tweeted Tuesday by the Sixers’ official account.In an ESPN interview for the cover story on May 20, 2021, Embiid and de Paula remembered how they were acquainted at a dinner in New York City in 2018 by a mutual acquaintance.
Amid whispers that Embiid was considering a transfer to the Knicks, the wedding ceremony took place on Long Island.In last week’s episode of Lowe’s podcast “The Lowe Post,”” ESPN’s Zach Lowe and Dave McMenamin dropped hints about a possible romance.
“Please, have him transported to New York by the Acela Express,” McMenamin said.Indeed, it is the precise meaning of the mutterings. “All people are aware of New York; the relationship between Joel Embiid and [Knicks president] Leon Rose is widely recognized,” [Lowe] said.Rose, Embiid’s former agent, is still very close to him.A recent guest on SiriusXM NBA Radio was Keith Pompey, who has insider knowledge of the Sixers and the Philadelphia Inquirer.Pompey claims that Powell has been a New York City homeowner for a while. The New York Knicks have been keeping their first-round draft choices in the vain hope that Joel Embiid would accept their offer to play for the team. This is the worst-kept sеcrеt in the NBA. “I can totally picture that happening.”
