Michael Jordan and his glamorous wife Yvette Prieto step onto his $115m yacht as they enjoy romantic Mykonos vacation

Michael Jordan and stunning wife Yvette Prieto were seen climbing aboard his $115million super-yacht after heading to Mykonos for the latest leg of their European getaway.

The basketball legend is cruising around the Greek islands with Yvette following their recent trip to Spain, where he looked in great shape as they took a stroll at the Marbella Club Hotel while surrounded by security guards.

Jordan, who was puffing on one of his trademark cigars at the time, has got himself in slender condition after tweaking his diet and prioritizing his health ever since a worrying photo of him in Monaco sparked concern two years ago.

Now a new-and-improved MJ is enjoying some downtime with his wife in Mykonos, with the couple spotted stepping off a speedboat and onto his monster ‘M’BRACE’ yacht on Thursday.

Jordan and Prieto have traveled around Europe on several occasions in recent years, soaking up the sun in Italy and France as well as Greece and Spain.

Back in 2024, the six-time NBA champion left fans worried when he was pictured watching a soccer game in Monaco with unusually yellow eyes, something that was previously picked up on in the popular docuseries The Last Dance in 2020.

Yet after he showed off his new slimmed-down physique in Marbella, a source told the Daily Mail: ‘Along with being seen on TV through NASCAR and his occasional moments on NBC with the NBA, he’s wanted to be in good shape and TV-ready so to speak as of late, because not so long ago fans were giving him some grief over his appearance and the way his eyes have looked, making many worried about him.

‘But the great thing about Mike and his health, is that he was an elite athlete for so long, he knows what to do to stay in shape, and having a wife who was a model, they work out together and he is always walking around on the golf course, so he remains overall in solid shape. Plus, how much stress do you think he has? Not much, he is rich, happily married and loving life. That goes a long way in someone’s health.’

Jordan appeared regularly with a yellow tint to his eyes while filming The Last Dance, sparking fears he was suffering from jaundice – or perhaps even something more serious.

Jaundice is often caused by the over-consumption of alcohol, and leads the sufferer’s skin and eyes to turn yellow.

‘As he was hearing people talking about his looks, he changed some eating habits and got back to working out a little more as he is just making sure that he will be just as spry when he gets into his 70s as he has been in his 60s,’ the insider added.

The source also played down the possibility that Jordan has taken weight-loss drugs to get himself back in shape. ‘If he is on Ozempic or anything else, he hasn’t told anybody, nor has anyone asked. He’s keeping that to himself,’ they insisted.

Jordan, who is worth an estimated $4.3billion, has travelled around Europe in recent years on two of his luxury yachts.

He is believed to own an $80m yacht known as ‘Joy’, as well as an even-bigger one known as ‘M’BRACE’, which is valued at a staggering $115m.

Jordan living a glitzy lifestyle has been typical of his time away from the NBA since his retirement for good as an active player in 2003.

This season he appeared on TV screens as a special contributor for NBC, but fans were left underwhelmed by his lack of air time after being unveiled by the network last year.

Jordan conducted just one interview with NBC host Mike Tirico, which was spread across multiple episodes of the network’s studio show in the 2025-26 campaign.
