LeBron James is quite the family man, but fans on social media are keen to know, ‘Does LeBron James have a brother?’
LeBron James was born in the city of Akron, Ohio. He is said to have a brother named Aaron, born after James’ father abandoned James’ mother.
According to one blogger, Aaron attempted to contact his half-brother but was unsuccessful. Aaron McClelland Gamble is reported to be the half-brother of LeBron James. Aaron allegedly reached out to LeBron after his mother died of cancer, but the Lakers star did not respond.
LeBron James adopts his mother’s surname. This is because his father was not very engaged in his life growing up. His mother, Gloria James, gave birth to him when he was 16. Anthony McClelland was his biological father’s name. McClelland, according to JockBio, “was an ex-con who was completely disinterested in being a parent.” Gloria raised LeBron entirely on her own.”
LeBron dedicated one of his social media posts to his absent father. “Thanks to you, Pops!” In the post, James wrote. “Many thanks all along. I could have asked why me when you weren’t there, but look what I made of myself.”
When LeBron James became the NBA’s youngest player to reach 30,000 points, his three kids congratulated him alongside his wife. USA Today says, “his 13 and 10-year-old sons, his 3-year-old daughter, and his wife all shared touching messages.”
The video montage above includes LeBron’s family’s congratulations. Bryce, 10, LeBron Jr., 13, and Zhuri, 3, are his children. Savannah discovered she was pregnant with LeBron’s first child when she was 17.
It’s been a long road for LeBron James and Savannah James. Savannah Brinson is her married name, and they married in 2013. Savannah and LeBron were high school sweethearts.
Savannah met LeBron at a football game in Ohio as a high school softball player and cheerleader. According to Sportster, Savannah was initially unaware that LeBron was a high school basketball phenom. Savannah said no when LeBron asked a friend for her phone number, but she took his.
The wedding of LeBron James and Savannah Brinson was a star-studded affair, which is not surprising given the couple’s celebrity. Beyonce and Jay-Z were among those who attended. They did perform at the wedding, according to Deadspin.
It wasn’t a huge wedding. According to Deadspin, only about 200 people were invited to the event, which was held at the Grand Del Mar Hotel. The ceremony took place in San Diego, California.
