We haven’t seen a lot of Michael Jordan’s romantic side but turns out the NBA GOAT had written some sappy love letters as a teen.
Young MJ was in love with someone named Laquetta Robinson. They weren't in the same school, and no thanks to mobile phones, they used to exchange letters.
Jordan would write confessing his love & simply describing to her how he had spent his day after class.
The letters go on to be leaked without her knowledge & ends up being auctioned for $5100.66
Some of the excerpts of the letter where he fondly addresses her, “My Dearest Laquette”
“Everyone think you are a very pretty young lady and I had to agree because it is very true”, quickly adding, “Please don't let this go to your head. (smile)”
Laquette recovered the letters after she threatened legal action.
“It was mine, it was personal, it was private. And for them to take something that belonged to me and to capitalize off of it, without my knowledge, without my permission, it really upsets me.”
