Who is Ysabel Jordan?

Ysabel Jordan was born on 9 February 2014, in the USA, and is best known for being the daughter of National Basketball Association (NBA) icon Michael Jordan and his second wife Yvette Prieto. She was born as twins alongside her sister Victoria – the two are the first children from her father’s second marriage.

The Wealth of Ysabel Jordan

How rich is Ysabel Jordan? As of mid-2018, sources estimate a net worth that is potentially over $1 million through the wealth of her father. Michael Jordan has an estimated net worth of over $1.65 billion, earned through success in basketball and business. As she grows up, it is expected that her wealth may increase.

The Twins

In 2013, Ysabel’s parents announced that they were expecting, though they didn’t know yet that they were going to have twins. The couple were followed constantly by the media over the last few months of her pregnancy, so they decided that they should implement a lifestyle that would keep them away from any publicity. This is so that they could raise their kids without much interference from the media and public in general.

Eventually, she was born alongside her twin sister Victoria, and they are identical twins. The name Ysabel means Devoted to God and in Italian Consecrated to God. Their father is NBA icon and legend Michael Jordan while their mother is model Yvette Prieto who is originally from Cuba. They would join their fathers’ three children from his first marriage, all of whom were already in their 20s by the time the twins were born. Michael’s first marriage was to Juanita Vanoy, and they were married for 17 years before divorcing in 2006.

Michael Jordan

Michael Jordan or MJ is best known for his career in the (NBA) in which he played mostly for the Chicago Bulls. He is named the greatest basketball player of his time, and one of the greatest athletes in his generation. He is considered the reason why the NBA became highly popular from the 1980s to the 1990s. He was initially drafted as the third overall pick by the Chicago Bulls, and entertained crowds especially with his leaping and shooting ability.

He would go on to win three titles with the Bulls from 1991 to 1993, but he abruptly retired to try his hand at minor league baseball. However, he returned in 1995, and would help the Bulls win three championships once more. He also helped set the record for 72 regular season wins during the 1995 to 1996 NBA season. He holds numerous accolades and records within the NBA, and has also helped popularize numerous products. He fueled the success of the Nike Air Jordan sneakers and later created his own shoe line which sees him gain a reputed $100 million a year. He was also a part of the film “Space Jam”. He is currently the part-owner and head of basketball operations for the Charlotte Bobcats, which later helped him to become the first billionaire in NBA history.

Second Marriage and Future Possibilities

Jordan had three children from his first marriage, which almost ended in divorce in 2002 before the couple reconciled. However, the couple would finalize a divorce in 2006 and his first wife would gain $168 million as a part of the settlement. Eventually he started a relationship with model Yvette Prieto, who is mostly known for her work with Alexander Wang, and is one of the more popular models from Cuba.

Many are speculating on whether or not the twins would follow the footsteps of their father or their mother. Jordan’s other children have tried their hand at collegiate basketball, but their skills never really transitioned to a professional level. The twins could also follow the footsteps of their mother, especially if they acquire desirable physical attributes which are common in most high profile models. For now, they enjoy the wealth that their father has accrued from his playing career, endorsements, as well as his ownership of the Charlotte Hornets. Their father also owns an automotive group which held several dealerships throughout the years.

Away from the Spotlight

Ysabel and her sister Victoria have remained away from the spotlight, as their parent’s desire is for them is to grow up without too much media attention. Their decision has proved successful as the twins have mainly been raised away from the limelight, and many were surprised when a photo of them was released showing them at four years old. It is likely that later on they will inherit a portion of wealth from their father, due to his many businesses and sources of income. Many sources are also commenting that they are already showing qualities that could lead to modelling at a young age.

Quotes

#Quote
1I want to play a villain so bad, just a villain. I've been playing the good guys, and that's cool, but just to play a villain that's so opposite of who I am.
2"I'm a comic book guy, I grew up reading comics and graphic novels and being fans of those worlds".
3(On Fantastic Four (2015)) "That project is one of the those things, you've got to accept sometimes that you can give 110% and still not turn out the way you want it. Some things are just out of your control, they're bigger than me."
4[describing the moment his character was killed off The Wire (2002)] Life was amazing. I was on a TV show. I was 16 years old. I had craft services. I was getting home-schooled. It was amazing. And then I got that dreaded knock on my trailer door episode 12 by David Simon, and no actor wants that visit by David Simon. Actors were dropping like flies, left and right. I remember just getting the script, and you'd just skim through to the last couple pages to make sure your name was still there to see if you survived. So Wallace was killed off. Yeah. And I was devastated because you know as an actor you never know what's coming up next. You never know when you're next job is going to be. And I was a kid; I was pretty devastated by that.
5I want to do everything. I'm a producer at heart. Eventually, when I can produce the way I want to, my acting's going to help fuel that. And not just vehicles for myself - I'm a member of this film society, and I want to contribute. If you're in the industry, you can't just take from it; you have to deposit something back to keep it going for the next generation.
6[on how he felt during the first time he watched Fruitvale Station (2013)] I was like, "OK, can we cut to something else?" I was tired of looking at my face. I was like, this is it, if this goes bad, it's all on me, there's nothing else on the screen! That was a weird moment for me. But once we were at Sundance opening night and his family saw it, their response to it, that's when the weight lifted off my shoulders. I was, like, these are the people that knew him, and if they are OK with it, then I'm good with it. Everything else is icing on the cake.
7[on if he stayed in character between takes during the filming of Fruitvale Station (2013)] I got out of it a lot. When it was heavy I was in it, but it was so much more than that. It was a love story, it was so many moments of him showing love to people he cared about. There was always the constant struggle between good and evil with him, he was always at a fork in the road, "Do I go left or do I go right?" and he would try to make the right decision, so playing that indecisiveness was really cool.
8[on getting to know Oscar Grant's family and friends while filming Fruitvale Station (2013)] Getting to know them - and getting to know Oscar through them - was very awkward at first, very hard, very sad. But then it started to loosen up. It became almost a healing process for them to talk about it. They gained a bigger voice. To be a part of that was an honor. With all his best friends, we went to a park, ordered some barbecue, played dominoes, drank a little bit. Just like things I would do with my boys back home in Jersey. And I listened to stories. You get a sense of who Oscar was in certain environments. He was a chameleon; he used to blend in. No matter where he was, he was somebody different, depending on what group of people he was around. So that was something that was very interesting to play through the movie.
9[on how he handles awards season] I usually cover my ears and run that way! It's always trying to manage expectations -- you just show up and do the work. After it's a wrap, there's not much you can do about it. Just gotta ride the wave and take everything as it comes. That's the best way, I think, to handle it.
10Zac Efron is my brother right here. We went through the trenches together. Miles Teller is very witty and always has something smart to say. He's a good guy and has become one of my brothers too. It's funny how you work on films and build up these friendships off-camera. It's cool.
11[on his Independent Spirit Awards for Best Male Lead for Fruitvale Station (2013)] It's mixed emotions. Just the fact we have to tell the story of a young man who lost his life the way he did, somebody that could have been me. But also that people are affected by the work, that it really has people thinking, feels like a victory in my book. I think all the awards buzz is just getting it more attention. The accolades and nominations encourage people who might not have wanted to see it or thought they'd watch it when they get around to it, they might now give it a look.
12I love Ben Affleck. He's definitely somebody that I respect his opinion and I pick his brain whenever I get a chance.
13[on Fruitvale Station (2013)] From an actor's perspective, it's the moment I've wanted to happen for a long time - to be able to be the lead of a film, to go to Sundance, to prove yourself with the material. I'm getting all this attention and all this success off of this tragic event. It's a bittersweet type of feeling.
14[on working with Octavia Spencer] Octavia is awesome. She's a really giving actress, you know, she's very funny. She can definitely lighten the mood when everybody's all sobbing and we had an emotionally draining day. She'll lighten the mood and say something to get everybody smiling again and get us in a good mood.
15[on how he got involved with Fruitvale Station (2013)] Honestly, my agent gave me the script. We were talking about what I wanted to do, and I told him I want to do a big film and that I want to do a gritty, independent film. And I was blessed to get Chronicle (2012), and then right after that he gave me Fruitvale to read. I read it and started crying, like it was pretty heavy. I was like, who wrote it? And he was like, Ryan Coogler. I was like, OK, we gotta talk. And we had a cup of coffee, and we chopped it up and talked and there was no doubt in my mind that I wasn't doing it.
16[on being known for his characters dying] My mom has seen me die way too much. I gotta give her a break. Hopefully, moving forward, I'll make it through the third act.
17I would love to play a psychopath. Oh man, that would be amazing. I want my love role. I've never been in love [in a movie] before, so I want to know what that's like. I want to play that action hero, that guy that saves the day. I want to play the role that's a little off and weird. I want to play the killer. I want to get inside the head of somebody like that. I want to be a pilot. I want to play the astronaut. I want to play the oil rigger in the Pacific. I can't wait to be up for, say, the next Jason Bourne.
18[on his role as the late Oscar Grant in Fruitvale Station (2013)] I prayed to Oscar a lot. I asked him to be around me, to give me his essence. When I was shooting that scene, I felt like I could've lost my life. I was scared, and I think that's how Oscar felt.
19[on growing up] Newark isn't a playground. I had friends that sold drugs, stole cars. Being African-­American and driving a nicer car than cops thought I should [a BMW at age 16] gave me problems.
