Giannis Antetokounmpo is out here being the ultimate supportive husband. The Milwaukee Bucks superstar melted hearts again after his wife, Mariah Riddlesprigger, landed the cover of Marie Claire Greece for its November issue.
Once the magazine posted the cover on Instagram, Giannis wasted zero time showing his love.
“That’s mine 😍,” he dropped in the comments, loud and proud.
Not stopping there, he filled his Instagram Stories with clips and photos from the shoot — one showing Mariah posing in a sleek black dress, another catching her flashing that big, happy smile. His caption? Short and sweet:
“Look at wifey 😍🤎.”
The Bucks star also reposted a clip from Mariah’s interview where she spoke about him, writing, “My forever,” with an infinity symbol and fingers crossed emoji.
“He’s just a wonderful person”: Mariah shares what she loves most about Giannis Antetokounmpo
Giannis and Mariah have spent more than a decade together, raising their family while balancing the spotlight that comes with fame. In her interview, Mariah talked about what makes her husband special — not the athlete the world sees, but the man behind it.
“What I love most about him is who he is outside of being Giannis, Greek Freak, like who he is at home, is what I love the most,” she said. “How caring and how loving he is for like our family and his family… the person he is at home, he’s like my best friend and he’s just a wonderful person.”
She added,
“Like people get to see side of that, but I truly get to see who he is and I just love every bit of it. He’s not perfect… but like I just think he’s a great person. That kindness, the protectiveness, that loyalty, he showers me with that.”
No MVP trophy can top that kind of love — and Giannis seems to know it.
