The Chicago Bulls legend’s first marriage with Juanita lasted 17 years. The couple then called it quits and parted ways for good. Although Jordan remarried in 2013, his ex-wife remained single. However, in the aftermath of their divorce, Juanita walked away with a hefty settlement fee. Their divorce in 2006 was one of the most talked about events. In addition to that, the divorce was settled at a record at the time, $168 million dollars. Nonetheless, their kids remain as close to their mother as they were before.
