Stephen Curry's Wife: Ayesha Curry
Stephen Curry and Ayesha Curry (née Alexander) have been married since July 30, 2011. Their journey started when they first met in 2003 at a church in North Carolina at ages 15 and 14, respectively.
Ayesha recalled her initial impression of Steph, saying, "He was the cute boy at church that all of the girls were obsessed with, so I made a generalization that maybe he wasn't for me."
In 2008, Ayesha, now a young adult, relocated to Los Angeles for modeling and acting pursuits. During this time, she reconnected with Steph, who was in town for the ESPY Awards.
Interestingly, Ayesha had a "no athletes" policy when it came to dating. Her parents discovered a document from her high school theater class, which required students to outline their preferences in a significant other.
On that list, she explicitly mentioned, "No athletes because they're arrogant." Despite her initial reservations, their connection blossomed soon enough.
The couple has three children. They welcomed their first child, a daughter named Riley, in 2012. Their family continued to grow with the arrival of their second daughter, Ryan, in 2015 and was further expanded with the birth of their son, Canon, in 2018.
The Curry family resides in a luxurious mansion in Atherton, California, which they acquired for $30 million in 2020.
The impressive Bay Area estate in the United States' most expensive zip code comprises seven bedrooms and nine bathrooms, featuring a predominantly stucco and glass exterior. The outdoor amenities include a pool, sundeck, cabana, and a manicured lawn.
