While this may come as a surprise to many devout NBA fans, the thirty-one-year-old wife of everyone’s favorite NBA player was actually raised in Canada! Well, for what it's worth, that explains her kindness and polite nature. Born on the 23rd of March in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, the actress, and cooking show personality lived in Canada till she was fourteen. Once she turned fourteen, however, she moved alongside her family to the lovely, serene town of Charlotte in North Carolina. Once in the town of Charlotte, Ayesha grew up with her family, which consisted of her mom, dad, and her two brothers Chad and Jaz, as well as two sisters.

In times such as ours, where a Tinder hookup seems a lot more convenient than investing the required time and effort into a relationship, it’s pretty rare to come across a love story as perfect as the one that Stephen and Ayesha have had! Having known each other since childhood, this iconic duo first met each other way back in a Church youth group in Charleston, North Carolina.

At the time of this first meeting, the two were only teenagers aged fifteen and fourteen years old respectively. As fate would have it, however, the pair didn’t end up dating until years later in August 2008, when Ayesha was looking to make it big in Hollywood, and Steph was visiting an awards show. Luckily enough, they ended up getting married in 2011, and will celebrate their anniversary on July 30th!

When it comes to social media platforms, Ayesha definitely knows what she’s doing. With a staggering 7.4 million followers on Instagram and more than 500,000 subscribers on YouTube- Ayesha is no stranger to influencing people on social media.

On her YouTube channel, which bears her name, Ayesha shares her day-to-day activities, which includes behind-the-scenes of her photoshoots (she is a pretty huge celebrity, after all), an adorable Q&A video with her hubby, along with her ‘Mommy Must Haves,’ and her favorite recipes- Ayesha has got her fans covered from all directions! If you’re looking for an entertaining video, you can watch her amazing family vlogs, and gush over her cute family, or if you’re in the mood to cook up something mind-bogglingly delicious, you can take inspiration from the many recipes she has on her channel!

Throughout the course of her expansive career, which has included everything from memorable appearances in music videos to her own 13-episode show on the Food Network show, Ayesha has been remembered for her gorgeous, luscious, brown hair. With perfect brunette waves that cascaded well beyond her shoulders, Ayesha has been the queen of rocking the brown/black hair color.

Perhaps it was because of the boredom brought on by months and months of self-imposed quarantine, Ayesha finally switched over to the other side, and dyed her hair a beautiful shade of blonde. Although it was only a temporary hair dye job, it looked so ravishing on her, and complimented her features so beautifully, that we can only hope that she goes blonde permanently!

Since we’ve already mentioned that Ayesha runs her own YouTube channel (which we recommend that you definitely check out), it would only make sense for us to tell you about the amazing lifestyle brand she owns- which is often featured on her YouTube channel. Her lifestyle brand, which is named,” Little Lights of Mine,” is Ayesha’s way of giving thanks to the people and things that have brought an immense amount of joy into her life.

Quite similarly to how she runs her YouTube channel, Ayesha tends to focus on the things that bring her the most amount of joy into her life, which is her beautiful family, and food.

Well to answer that, why should she not have her own olive oil line? A devoted cook at heart, Ayesha Curry believes in the power of investing in high-quality ingredients, which is precisely why she produces her very own line of extra-virgin olive oil. According to Ayesha, the olive oil, which can be found on her website, alongside some other merchandise, is a staple in her kitchen. Furthermore, an additional benefit of purchasing her olive oil is the humble fact that ten percent of all proceeds go to a charity organization, “No Kid Hungry,” which aims to abolish hunger in America.

While most celebrities are hesitant to share their religious beliefs on social media, Ayesha is pretty vocal about her religious beliefs, and continually shares spiritual messages on her social media platforms. And it’s not just Ayesha who believes in the healing power of religion, her husband, Steph Curry shares her beliefs and is equally vocal about his beliefs. Ayesha, in an interview, stated that her religion is the “foundation” for everything that she does in life, and honestly speaking, we believe that it’s a beautiful sentiment that the couple has built their cute family on!

According to Ayesha, Canon was born two weeks premature and was named after his late grandfathers. As soon as his arrival was announced, fans couldn’t help but woo at how adorable this baby was, and sent well wishes to the happy family from all over the world. Canon, who is now two years old, continues to be as cute as ever- as we get to see from Ayesha and Steph’s Instagram posts.
