Michael Jordan and wife Yvette Prieto arrive in Mykonos on his $115m yacht as their romantic European trip continues
NBA icon Michael Jordan is continuing his whirlwind tour of Europe alongside his wife on board his $115million mega-yacht. The latest stop for the six-time NBA champion and Hall-of-Famer was the Greek island of Mykonos. Jordan stepped off his boat and onto the famous summer destination wearing a light blue t-shirt, white shorts, and an all-white pair of his iconic Jordan 1 Low sneakers. He carried a bucket hat with him while accessorizing with sunglasses, a white watch and bracelets. Coming up the gangplank right behind him was his wife, Cuban-American model Yvette Prieto. The 47-year-old wore a vibrant Missoni crochet-knit halterneck top and a matching skirt as she stepped out into the Greek sunshine wearing a pair of strappy black sandals. Like her husband, Prieto also wore sunglasses. She also wore a gorgeous pair of earrings and a gold bracelet while carrying a tan bag. The couple were traveling with friends who also joined them on the shore for some much needed R&R after sailing on Jordan's floating home. Jordan, who is worth an estimated $3.6billion, is believed to own an $80million yacht known as 'Joy', with the even-bigger one known as 'M'BRACE', valued at $115million, being what Prieto was seen sunbathing on. The 244-foot long ship, purchased by Jordan in 2022, is said to accommodate 12 guests with 8 cabins and 24 crew, with an estimated annual running cost of $10m. The ship has already sailed to the Italian island of Sardinia last month, with Jordan and Prieto, 47, heading to Skradin - a small town in Croatia's Sibenik-Knin County weeks later - as they continue to enjoy their summer vacation. Jordan living a glitzy lifestyle has been typical of his time away from the NBA since his retirement for good as an active player in 2003. This summer, it comes with a caveat as he prepares to return to being in front of the league's audience on a consistent basis as part of The Association's return to NBC. Earlier on the family's European tour, Jordan's father-in-law, Carlos Prieto Sr, and brother-in-law Carlos Jr, and his wife, had also joined the party aboard the striking vessel. This summer's quality downtime will prove to be even more precious for the NBA icon as he gears up for his new job in the Fall. It was revealed in May that Jordan will be on the NBC airwaves when the network returns to airing the NBA next season. The addition of Jordan is a coup, with the network bringing on one of the all-time greatest players in the sport to boost their coverage. Rather than be a constant presence on-air - much like Wayne Gretzky does with hockey coverage on Turner or Tom Brady does on Fox - Jordan's appearances will be rarer and more specialized, Daily Mail exclusively revealed last month. 'Michael is going to be doing a handful things for NBC when the NBA returns, and instead of commentating, it is going to be more special segments, 60 Minutes style, and occasionally doing halftime analysis,' sources exclusively told The source added, 'They are going to make his moments special, and with players in a hands on segment before the game and occasionally stuff after the game, but it isn't going to be full commentary or what Shaq and Charles Barkley do. Sources said that Jordan's role will make him 'NBC's Oprah for the NBA.'' It had been rumored that Jordan would pocket a staggering $40 million annually from NBC - the twice the figure Charles Barkley earns with TNT - but a report from Fox Office Sports claimed that sum was inaccurate. 'His Airness' is set to go back on the airwaves as NBC returns to covering the league in 2025 A new media rights deal is set to kick in for the league next season - putting NBA games back on NBC for the first time since 2002. In addition to Jordan, Hall of Famer Reggie Miller will be appearing on the network alongside Carmelo Anthony and Jamal Crawford. Sources also told Daily Mail last month that Jordan is taking his role at NBC incredibly seriously. Jordan has had no active ties to the NBA since August 2023, when he sold his stake in the Charlotte Hornets for $3billion. 'There is just enough time in life that you can be on a yacht, spend all your money on having fun and good times and living life to the fullest. Michael does that and will continue to do that, as he has over the years,' the source said. 'But this summer will be different because he is looking forward to resetting his career and have people remember that he is the best.' Jordan's NBC appearances are sure to kick off a new round of debates as to who the greatest basketball player of all-time is, with LeBron James being the Chicago Bulls legend's most prominent contemporary. The six-time NBA champion's return to airwaves comes as James has opted into a $52.6million contract with the Los Angeles Lakers, putting many of the finishing touches on an unbelievable career, in part, in direct comparison with Jordan's legacy. Jordan will not have to report for NBA duty until the beginning of the league season in October, giving him three months with Prieto and his family to freely live life in their first-class fashion.

Jordan was also pictured in the Greek Isles with the happily-married couple sharing two twin daughters, Victoria and Ysabel, who also joined their parents on the superyacht. The 11-year-old twins were seen in matching blue floral dresses with white shoes standing on a dock with family before getting into a smaller boat on the water. Jordan wore sunglasses, a white fedora, dark green shirt, checkered cargo shorts, white shoes, and completed the look with a cigar in his left hand. When her eye-opening sunbathing session was complete, Prieto reemerged in a romper with her own choices for sunhats. The family was later seen eating at the luxurious Posidonio Hotel, where the cheapest rooms cost $400 per night. In addition to Victoria and Ysabel, 'His Airness' also shares three adult children - Jeffrey, 36, Marcus, 34, and Jasmine, 32 - from his first marriage to ex-wife Juanita Vanoy.
