It’s official!

His Royal Airness, Michael Jordan, 50, married his model girlfriend Yvette Prieto, 35, in a star-studded Florida wedding that included such guests as Patrick Ewing, Scottie Pippen and Tiger Woods, reports Hollywood Life.

Over 500 guests gathered at Bethesda-by-the Sea, an Episcopal church in Palm Beach, to see Jordan wed his long-time love. And after the nuptials, a lavish reception for more than 2,000 guests took place at the Bears Club, a Jack Nicklaus designed golf community in Jupiter, Fla., where the basketball legend just built a 38,000 square foot home.

As previously reported, Jordan met Prieto at a Miami nightclub in 2008 and proposed during the Christmas holiday in 2011. The couple applied for a marriage license last month.

This is the first marriage for Prieto and the second for Jordan, who was married to Juanita Vanoy for 17 years before divorcing amid rumored infidelities in 2006.

They have three children.

Even though the wedding went off without a hitch, there was plenty drama before the couple made it down the aisle.

As previously reported, Pamela Smith, Jordan’s supposed ’90s ex-fling and allegedly the mother of his child, was suing for child support. She claimed that her son, Grant Pierce Jay Jordan ‘Taj’ Reynolds, begged her to file suit so that Jordan would be forced to publicly acknowledge him.

According to Smith, she and Jordan have a “good” relationship and she didn’t want to embarrass him, but Taj no longer wanted to keep his paternity secret. Even though Jordan allegedly gave them money and gifts over the years, the boy could never tell anyone that he was his father.

Jordan asked that the paternity suit be dismissed and Smith eventually dropped it.

As previously reported, Jordan had Prieto sign a prenup to protect his reported $650-million fortune.
