Kevin Durant stirred the pot recently when he spoke about his nihilistic opinions on marriage in a conversation with Bobbi Althoff. Althoff quizzed KD on his thoughts on relationships and getting married, especially since the player is known for being extremely private about his personal life.
Durant was indeed engaged a long time back, but his fiancee broke it off before they could actually get married. Since then the legendary baller has been very private of his dates and his relationships, even though many rumors have been going around about his love life. When Althoff asked him about whether a prenup would make him change his mind, KD still seemed pessimistic about the whole thing.
“That’s not really a prenup, though, I mean you still have to, when you walk away, at least give something.” KD said.
“It’s like the word marriage, like what the relationship is, like do I want to be with this somebody every day and hang out with the same person every day. I think divorce is more of a realistic cuz the divorce percentage is higher.” Durant went on to explain.
“I have never really dreamt of having a wedding day. …When I got to the wedding, it’s like ‘oh it’s dope’ [but]…it’s not like a need to happen in my mind. But [wedding] is still a cool event.” KD added later.
In the same podcast episode, Kevin Durant also spoke about depressive episodes which he had in the past. Apparently, KD was ashamed of his skinny physique before, which eventually led him to develop poor self-esteem and struggle with depression.
