Oh, how time flies! Well, it was only 9 years ago when Riley took the internet by storm with her adorable antics while Dad tried to keep it together during a press conference. But a lot has happened since then and Stephen Curry is now a father of 4, with his second son Caius Chai joining the Curry family just four months ago. For the first time since his birth, Steph and Ayesha finally captured a wholesome portrait with the entire gang, but it was Riley who once again left the community in a frenzy because of her new ‘grown-up avatar’.

Ayesha shared her family’s first portrait since the birth of Caius. “My little family. So grateful,” she wrote on Instagram. While the three ladies were dressed in all white, Stephen Curry and his boys were draped in soothing beige and green colors, blending with the natural background. However, the couple continued the trend of not revealing their newborn’s face, as he rested in Ayesha’s arms.

Even when they announced his birth in May, Steph and Ayesha only shared a black and white image holding the newborn’s hand, but keeping his face hidden. Maybe, the couple is not willing to expose the little one to the social media world at such a young age. However, what caught people’s attention was how different and grown-up Riley looked in the latest family portrait. Currently 12, soon to become a teen, she is no longer a toddler who hilariously told her dad to “be quiet” because he was being too loud in an interview.

Ayesha and Stephen Curry’s fanbase left stunned after seeing Riley and her siblings all grown up

Seeing Riley’s new avatar, a netizen hilariously wrote, “Riley’s face is indicating a pre-teen attitude.” With braided hair and a nonchalant pose, fans noticed that Stephen Curry’s eldest one has slowly begun entering a new chapter in her life. One fan even went into nostalgia because of the portrait, “I remember when Riley was just a baby at Steph’s conference 😭😭😭😭”. Yes, that conference was only a few weeks before the Splash Brother won his first NBA Championship and the Warriors were in the early stages of becoming a dynasty. And four titles later, here we are, never better!

Meanwhile, another fan questioned, “Riley where has time gone?” From sitting on her father’s lap during interviews to now playing volleyball and beginning to explore her passion, which she’s been “super into” as her dad once revealed, Riley has basically grown up in front of the world. Not only her but even the part-time golfer and Ayesha’s other kids, Ryan and Cannon looked a lot different in the latest family portrait than the fans pictured in their minds as one wrote, “I cannot believe y’all kids are this big 😩😍”.

Having been a part of their journey from the get-go, fans feel like they are also a part of the Curry family and even sent out all the love after seeing the wholesome picture, “You guys have such a beautiful family ❤️we love you all !!!” Sure enough, the NBA world cannot wait to see more of the beautiful family and witness how the four kids carry their parents’ amazing legacy. Do you agree?
