Nowitzki is the greatest foreign star in NBA history, and he was also the NBA's famous diamond king. The love life of the handsome Dirk from Germany has attracted the attention of countless people, but Dirk's choice is often unexpected. He initially fell in love with a "snitch" girlfriend, and then married a mixed-race black girl, which is such an unusual way.
In fact, Dirk began to spend the previous month before landing in the NBA. His first love girlfriend, Sybille Gerer, is a basketballgirl from a local club in Dirk's hometown of Ursburg. The two began falling in love in 1992, when Dirk was only 18 years old. But after 10 years in love, the two parted ways in 2002, when Dirk had established himself in the NBA and was already an NBA All-Star.
For this relationship, Dirk has said that they grew up in different environments and are no longer suitable for continued relationships, but they still maintain a friendship. In addition, this may have something to do with Nowitzki's attitude toward marriage and family. He has said he definitely wants to start a family and have a few children, "but I can't imagine myself doing it all before I'm 30." ”
Since then, Dirk's love life has begun to take the side. In August 2009, the media broke the news that Dirk's ex-fiancée Crystal Taylor had been sentenced to five years in prison by a U.S. court for fraud and theft, and Christo, then 38, confessed to this.
As soon as this news came out, it immediately caused an uproar. What people don't understand is why the handsome and gold-rich Dirk would choose a woman like Christo, who is 7 years older than him, who is mediocre and even ugly, and who has a case?
It is reported that Christo claimed that she was engaged to Dirk and was pregnant with Dirk's child. Dirk's lawyer had refuted Christo's claims at the time, but also said that if true, Dirk would be responsible for the child. According to Dirk's father, Jorge, Christo's sentencing dealt a huge blow to Decker.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for Dirk to meet the true love of a lifetime. In February 2010, on a snowy night, Dirk went to a charity auction where she met Jessica Olsson, who works at a gallery in Dallas, and fell in love with her at first sight. Later, after hearing that Jessica would appear at 2 other charity events, Dirk happily agreed to the invitation to these 2 events, just to see her sweetheart again.
Jessica is of mixed race, her father is Swedish and her mother is Kenyan. She grew up in Sweden with her 2 younger brothers, Martin and Marcus. Martin Olsson is a football star who plays as a left-back who played in the Premier League, working for Blackburn, Norwich and Swansea, and also played with the Swedish national team at Euro 2012 and 2016.
Although Jessica is of mixed race, she has a dark complexion, so when her relationship with Dirk was exposed in June 2011, it still caused a lot of criticism, and "Dirk found a black girl" became a topic of ridicule among some NBA players for a while. But Dirk disagreed. He called Jessica attractive and the two were a good fit, both of them loved art and sports, and Jessica's younger brother was also a professional player. And they both love tennis, travel, and want to start a family with a lot of children.
In addition, Dirk said that although he came from a single-race family and region, he later played for a team with teammates from different races and countries, so race and color were no longer important to him.
It is reported that Dirk successfully proposed to Jessica on the eve of the 2011 finals, and the 2011 championship was the best promise he gave to his sweetheart. On July 20, 2012, the two officially held a wedding. The wedding was unique, with the two having weddings in Dallas and Kenya. It is said that on the wedding day in Kenya, Dirk was asked to accurately find his bride among several Kenyan women who were tightly wrapped, but this did not defeat Dirk. Subsequently, the Dirks also wore Kenyan national costumes and danced to the music.
Today, the Dirks have a daughter and two sons. After some twists and turns, Dirk found true love, and his relationship with Jessica broke through the barriers of the race and produced bright flowers. (Supine Braces/Hairy)
