A decade after parting ways with his ex-girlfriend Monica Wright, NBA superstar Kevin Durant has found love again. The 35-year-old Phoenix Suns forward recently revealed his new relationship in an exclusive interview, expressing a sense of renewed happiness.
“I’m in a really good place right now,” Durant shared, his voice filled with warmth. “It’s been a journey, but I’ve met someone who truly understands and supports me.”
Durant’s new partner, whose identity he has chosen to keep private for now, is reportedly a well-respected professional outside the sports world. Their relationship began quietly, with the couple often spotted at low-key restaurants and events, enjoying each other’s company away from the limelight.
Close friend and fellow NBA star Kyrie Irving commented, “Kevin seems happier than I’ve seen him in years. He’s found someone who brings out the best in him.”
The journey to this new chapter hasn’t been without its challenges. Durant and Wright, a former WNBA player, ended their relationship in 2013 due to conflicting schedules and personal differences. “It was tough,” Durant admitted. “Monica and I had a lot of love and respect for each other, but sometimes life takes you in different directions.”
Reflecting on his past, Durant emphasized the importance of personal growth. “I’ve learned so much about myself over the years. I’m grateful for every experience because it’s led me to where I am today.”
As Durant looks ahead, his focus remains on balancing his career and personal life. “Basketball will always be a big part of me, but having someone to share my life with makes everything even more meaningful.”
With a supportive partner by his side, Durant’s future looks brighter than ever, both on and off the court.
