  • The NBA legend called it one of the greatest experiences of their life

Magic Johnson has been married to his wife, Earlitha ‘Cookie’ Johnson, since 1991, with the couple having been together ever since. The Lakers legend has recently been traveling through Europe with his wife. 

Their latest stop was in Montenegro, where they visited what Magic Johnson called a ‘man-made islet.’ And he made a post about it on social media, calling it one of the greatest experiences of their lives. 

“Cookie and I had one of the greatest experiences of our lives today visiting Our Lady of the Rocks, one of two man-made islets in Montenegro,” Johnson wrote. 

“Legend has it that in 1452, two brothers who were heading home to Perast after a dangerous voyage, one with an injured leg, spotted something on a rocky outcrop. When they went to see what it was, they discovered an icon of the Virgin Mary and Child.”

Magic and Cookie Johnson have been together for 32 years, and they have two children together. Earvin III, known as EJ, is the older child, and they also have a daughter named Elisa, whom they adopted in 1995. Now that their children are grown up, it seems Magic and his wife have decided to see more of the world. 


Magic Johnson Has Been Blown Away By The Welcome He Has Received In Europe

Magic Johnson is an NBA legend and someone who changed the league and made it what it is today. But his prime was in the 1980s, and the league wasn’t as global then as it is now. During his travels throughout Europe, Johnson has been shown a lot of love, with the fans in Italy in particular surprising him quite a bit

“I was out shopping today in Capri, Italy, with Cookie, and I met so many amazing young fans! I’m blown away because none of them were even born when I was playing basketball! We were in the store today, and they were all chanting ‘Magic, Magic.”

Magic Johnson also had dinner with Michael Jordan during his time in Italy and seems to be enjoying himself quite a bit. It will be exciting to see where the 63-year-old’s travel takes him next and what kind of experience he has there.
