    When Ayesha Curry first started dating her NBA superstar husband Stephen, his palate was admittedly limited.

    “He was a frozen pizza, chicken tenders, alfredo pasta type of guy,” she tells PEOPLE in this week’s issue, on newsstands Friday. After nearly five years of marriage, her skills in the kitchen have opened up a wide range of cuisine for him. “Now he eats sashimi,” she says. “He’s really broadened his horizons. It’s incredible.”

    With her first cookbook, The Seasoned Life (out in September), an upcoming Cooking Channel show and a pop-up restaurant in their hometown of San Francisco, Ayesha, 27, is quickly racking up her credentials on the culinary scene. “I am a firm believer that food makes people feel something. It makes people feel good, warm and happy,” she says. “That’s the most rewarding thing for me, when someone takes that first bite and I see a smile. It’s probably the same adrenaline rush Steph gets when he plays a game.”

    Despite her culinary chops, Ayesha considers herself a “relaxed lifestyle expert” who doesn’t obsess over making everything Pinterest-perfect. “Entertaining gives me anxiety,” she admits. “I’m the most disorganized person on the face of the planet but the whole message I’m trying to send is that’s normal. You can have organized chaos and that’s okay.”

    Pick up the new issue of PEOPLE to get Ayesha’s easy entertaining tips and recipes for a carefree outdoor brunch — and check out her refreshing mango lemonade recipe below. “Brunching to me is so relaxed and gives you the best of both worlds,” she says. “You get the sweet and savory of breakfast and light and freshness of lunch. And cocktails are completely appropriate.”

    1 mango, peeled and chopped (about 1 ½ cups)
    ¾ cup sugar, divided
    4 ¼ cups water, divided
    1 cup fresh lemon juice (from about 8 lemons)
    1 tsp. bitters, such as Angostura

    1. Process the mango, ¼ cup of the sugar, and ¼ cup of the water in a blender until smooth. (This will make the puree for the lemonade.)

    2. Combine the lemon juice, bitters, and the remaining 1/2 cup sugar and 4 cups water in a 2-quart pitcher; stir until the sugar dissolves. Stir in the puree. Serve over ice in tall glasses.

    Who Is Stephen Curry’s Sister? All About Sydel Curry-Lee

    Sydel Curry-Lee is married to an NBA player and is currently pregnant with her second baby

    NBA star Stephen Curry’s little sister Sydel Curry-Lee is forging her own path.

    The youngest of three siblings, Sydel was born in 1994 into a basketball family. Her father, Dell Curry, played in the NBA for nearly two decades, while her older brothers Stephen and Seth are both professional basketball players.

    “People underestimating me is pretty much my life from the moment I started playing sports to now,” the former college volleyball player told Togethxr in 2020. When she walked around her college campus, she heard her classmates whispering, “Oh, that’s Steph Curry’s sister.”

    But since graduating from Elon University in 2017, Sydel has pursued many interests, including running a lifestyle blog, launching a podcast and advocating for mental health. She is also a wife to NBA player Damion Lee and a soon-to-be mother of two.

    “I feel like I’ve done a really good job at creating my own person and creating my own identity outside of my brothers,” she said.

    Sydel still has the support of her big brothers though. When she told Steph and his wife Ayesha Curry that she was pregnant with her first child in 2021, the two screamed in pure excitement, as seen in a video shared by the Golden State Warriors. Both of her brothers also served as groomsmen at her 2018 wedding.

    So, who is Stephen Curry’s sister? Here’s everything to know about Sydel Curry-Lee.

    She played volleyball in college

    While Sydel didn’t follow in her family’s footsteps when it came to basketball, she did play volleyball at Elon University from 2014 to 2016. She was redshirted as a freshman due to a dislocated knee cap and started playing in 2014.

    She was underestimated a lot during college, Sydel recalled, with some people even questioning her talent. “I remember one of the first things I ever heard when I was playing volleyball is, ‘You’re only here because of your family.’ “

    Sydel was named the team’s MVP in 2016, the same year she was named NCCSIA First Team All-State. However, she retired from volleyball in 2017 after an injury.

    “I have dedicated so much of my life, my identity, to my sport. As an athlete and a competitor, I will always want to put my sport before a lot of things,” she wrote on Facebook. “I never thought that my first grown-up decision about my future would be something so difficult.”

    She graduated with a degree in psychology the same year.

    She’s a big advocate for mental health

    Sydel is using her platform for good. She’s very open on her Instagram account and on her own blog, “A Curry Girl,” about her own struggles with mental health.

    “I’ve always had a passion for mental health, not that I’ve had to deal with it on my own. I’ve always been curious about the mind and helping others but I really want, literally in a sense, to save lives,” she told Essence in 2020. “We’ve seen in the past week or so how many people have taken their lives because [they were] at a point in their life that they thought it’s never going to get better. So with my brand called A Curry Girl and the platform that I have, that’s all I want to do is just change the stigma behind [people] being not being able to speak about how you’re feeling and not being in a culture where social media is just about jokes and people not taking other people seriously.”

    In May 2021, Sydel launched a podcast called Because Life, which “aims to de-stigmatize the discussion around mental health and offer first-hand advice on how we can all discuss the subject better as well as things we can do to improve our mental health,” per the podcast’s description.

    Recently in March 2023, she spoke to Ferrum College about the importance of mental health. “Dusted off my speechin’ skills and spoke to @ferrum_college students today! I left feeling so encouraged by the progress that’s being made in colleges and universities by creating safe spaces for students to feel seen and heard in their mental health journeys,” she wrote on Instagram.

    She’s married to NBA player Damion Lee

    Sydel and her now-husband Damion Lee, who plays for the Phoenix Suns, met at a college basketball game while she was at Elon University and he was a student at Drexel University.

    “He was walking up the stairs, I was sitting in the stands and we kind of made eye contact,” she told Munaluchi Bride. After exchanging DMs and going on a few dates, they officially became a couple.

    As for the proposal, Sydel explained she had one requirement. “My one wish for a proposal was to have all my family in the same room when the time came. He planned it on a weekend that both of our families would be in town for different reasons.”

    The pair got married on Sept. 1, 2018, in Charlotte, North Carolina. Steph’s wife Ayesha served as her matron of honor while his daughters were flower girls.

    The day after the wedding Sydel shared photos on her Instagram along with a special message for her husband: “I love this man more than words can tell but now i get to live my life showing it and telling him every day! I have tons of people to thank but right now, I just need to relish in the fact that I have found my soulmate, we are now one, and I am Mrs. Lee!!!!!”

    As a wedding gift, Steph gave his sister something pretty special. He had the women’s volleyball locker room at Elon University named after her.

    “Just want to say congratulations on getting married this weekend, that’s a big occasion, I know it’s crazy,” Steph said in a video message. “But we also want to congratulate you on an amazing career at Elon playing volleyball, all you did for the school and the program, and wanted to give it back to you with the new locker room for Sydel Curry.”

    She has a son

    On Nov. 26, 2021, Sydel and Lee welcomed a baby boy, Daxon Wardell-Xavier Lee.

    “No words are enough to describe the bliss of having my sweet son here. We are in newborn bliss and soaking in every single moment,” she wrote on Instagram.

    Ahead of Daxon’s birth, Sydel shared photos of her nursery exclusively with PEOPLE. “We want this to be his place of solace, a safe space for him to rest and feel at home,” she shared, while her husband added, “It’s a great space for us to get away from all the distractions of the outside world and focus on our baby.”

    And following their baby’s arrival, the new parents opened up about keeping the spark alive in their marriage on Sydel’s podcast, calling it “very hard.”

    “Someone gave us the advice to do the deed for a whole month. Like every day of the month. We got to day like 15 and we were like, no,” she shared. “I think that’s a very hard thing to do. I don’t think it happens a lot in relationships … I haven’t met anyone who has kept the spark the whole time while trying to conceive because it’s such a mental thing.”

    She is a Taylor Swift fan

    Sydel isn’t just a basketball fan, she’s also a self-proclaimed Swiftie. She shared a photo of herself on Instagram at the first night of the Eras Tour in Glendale, Arizona.

    “Went for Paramore, left invested if Betty ever took James back! #erastour Hayley Williams is EVERYTHING & Taylor just did the dang thing! A 3 1/2 hour set is unreal and she didn’t miss at all! Thanks @ryanquint_ for the invite!”

    She is expecting her second child

    On March 21, 2023, Sydel shared a video on Instagram revealing she and Lee were expecting their second child together alongside the caption, “August 2023 💖For this child we have prayed!”

    A few weeks later, she shared a close-up of her bump and wrote, “What a privilege it is to see you grow. To feel you move. To imagine what who you’ll look like. Who you’ll act like. My precious little one. Take your time but we are ready for you.”

  • Fans given a sneak peek at Travis Kelce’s new hairstyle ahead of Chiefs-Bills playoff game

    Fans given a sneak peek at Travis Kelce’s new hairstyle ahead of Chiefs-Bills playoff game

    Tight End’s hairstylist revealed the new look

    As the high-stakes showdown against Josh Allen’s Buffalo Bills approaches, Travis Kelce seems to truly believe that to play at his optimum level on the field, he must look good and feel comfortable on it.

    In an attempt to achieve this, Kelce has elected to have a fresh haircut in the days leading up to the crucial playoff meeting between the two AFC giants.

    Patrick Regan, Kelce’s hairstylist, offered a sneak peek of the stylish haircut, creating anticipation for the impending face-off with Allen. The clean hairdo reflects Kelce’s commitment to both his performance on the field and his personal appearance.

    Kelce could easily slip into media role after retirement

    While the 34-year-old tight end may not be contemplating retirement from the NFL just yet, he does have a post-football plan in mind. According to a source featured in PEOPLE’s cover story on the Kansas City Chiefs star and his NFL brother, Jason Kelce, Travis is eyeing a transition into the entertainment industry.

    “He’s really enjoyed hosting, and after he retires, he wants to lean into acting and hosting,” the source told PEOPLE Magazine.

    Travis Kelce, who had a memorable stint hosting Saturday Night Live last March, expressed his interest in diversifying his career beyond football. His hosting gig on SNL came shortly after the Kansas City Chiefs clinched Super Bowl LVII with a 38-35 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles.

    While emphasizing that football remains Kelce’s top priority, the source notes that he has been named a team captain for the Chiefs’ NFL playoffs run, continuing to lead the team in receiving yards this season. During the offseason, Kelce takes the opportunity to unwind, enjoying time with friends and indulging in travel

    The National Basketball Association player Stephen Curry and his wife Ayesha decided to take a trip to East Africa in order to celebrate ten years of marriage happiness. They opted to travel to Tanzania, which is known for its mesmerizing charm, in order to have a memorable experience.

    Travelers from all over the world are drawn to East Africa because of its attraction, and Stephen Curry, a player for the Golden State Warriors, found himself drawn to the enchantment of Tanzania. The nation is home to a vibrant culture that is firmly founded in Swahili customs and traditions, and it is accompanied by kind and welcoming locals, mouthwatering cuisine, and experiences that will be unforgettable.

    The beginning of Curry’s relationship with Tanzania can be traced back to 2013, when he made his initial trip to the country during his summer holiday. During his cultural adventure, he grew interested in exploring Tanzanian villages, particularly those that were located close to the Serengeti. This experience sparked a charitable attitude inside him.

    Malaria was a problem that plagued these settlements because of the high number of mosquitoes that were present. Curry made a commitment to make a difference after becoming aware of the precarious situation of families who do not have mosquito nets. Following his return to the United States, he made good on his pledge by creating the Nothing But Nets campaign in conjunction with the United Nations. The program’s objective is to fight malaria in sub-Saharan Africa.

    His project centered on the distribution of mosquito nets to families, notably in Tanzania, where the sickness that was transmitted by mosquitoes posed a great threat, particularly to children who were younger than five years old. This information comes from Beat Malaria.org, which states that every sixty seconds, a child under the age of five dies from the effects of malaria.

  • Jason Kelce hints that he WILL stay in football if he retires: ‘I’ll always wanna be involved in the game’

    Jason Kelce hints that he WILL stay in football if he retires: ‘I’ll always wanna be involved in the game’

    Jason Kelce has hinted that he could remain in football in some capacity if he calls time on his legendary playing career this offseason.

    The 36-year-old is currently weighing up whether to retire after his 13th NFL season with the Philadelphia Eagles, who were dumped out of this year’s playoffs at the Wild Card Round by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Monday night.

    After suggesting prior to the game that it could be his last in the sport – and then looking teary on the sidelines as the Eagles fell to a 32-9 defeat – Kelce reportedly told his teammates that in the locker room afterwards that he is hanging up his cleats.

     

    There are likely to be plenty of options on the table for him, with some Philadelphia fans even urging Kelce to stay with the franchise as a coach next season. And on Wednesday the veteran center admitted he ‘always wants to be involved in the game’.

    ‘I don’t even know what involves my future, whether it’s playing football or not,’ he told reporters. ‘I have no idea. We’ll figure it out.

    ‘I don’t wanna address any of this stuff right now. I don’t like to live in absolutes in general.’

    ‘It’s hard to make those shifts a lot of times in season,’ Kelce continued, according to CBS Sports. ‘It can be done, we didn’t get it done. I feel confident those shifts can be made.

    ‘I’ll always wanna be involved in the game. It’s a hard thing to step away from, completely, I’m imagining.

    ‘I still want — there’s a lot of things I still want to learn about football. I still want to figure out what we can do to figure out what happened these last six, seven weeks.

    ‘I know a lot about my little pocket of football, but I’d love to know more about the collective whole. That’s something I’d love to get a better grasp on in the future.’

    If he does indeed retire, Kelce will bow out as a Super Bowl winner, six-time All-Pro and future Hall-of-Fame inductee after his iconic spell in Philadelphia, where he spent the entirety of his NFL career.

    He first broke his silence after the Bucs defeat on the latest episode of his New Heights podcast with his brother Travis, saying: ‘I didn’t announce what I was doing on purpose – despite what’s been leaked to the media.’

    ‘But I think people can feel body language and stuff…’

    The former Cincinnati star, who was drafted by the Eagles in 2011, continued: ‘I just don’t think you’re in a position, after a game like that, to really make that decision. I just don’t. There’s too much emotion in the moment, there’s too much going down in the moment to really fully grasp that decision.

    ‘I’m not trying to be dramatic and continue to draw this thing out, I’m really not. It’s just something that I think – when it’s time to officially announce what’s happening in the future. it’ll be done in a way that’s definitive and pays respect to a lot of people and individuals who mean a lot to me and what has led to the career I’ve had.

    ‘And I don’t think it would be respectful or even accurate to be able to do that right after a game like that. (I’m) frustrated, I guess, at everything that’s happening but in the future there’ll be something said.’

    Ayesha Curry is putting an end to “ridiculous” rumors she’s in an open relationship with her NBA superstar husband, Stephen Curry … saying it’s 100% not true.

    Ayesha — who married Steph in 2011 — is breaking her silence weeks after gossip blogs reported (citing an anonymous tip) the adored couple wasn’t monogamous … denying the claims in a response to an Instagram troll.

    “Don’t believe everything you read,” Curry said on Monday. “Do you know how ridiculous that is? Don’t disrespect my marriage like that. Please and thank you.”

    Of course, the Currys first met as teens in Charlotte, N.C. … but didn’t start dating until years later.

    The couple got hitched on July 30, 2011 … and went on to have 3 kids together — Riley (9), Ryan (6), and Canon (3).

  • Taylor Swift Complains Her Suitors Never Do ‘Anything Crazy’ to Woo Her… Contrasting Travis Kelce’s Approach.

    Taylor Swift Complains Her Suitors Never Do ‘Anything Crazy’ to Woo Her… Contrasting Travis Kelce’s Approach.

    Taylor Swift may have been perfectly primed for Travis Kelce‘s pursuit of her, at least according to a newly resurfaced video clip.

    In a 2012 interview with Extra, Taylor spoke about how her mostly low-key suitors at the time had eschewed grand romantic gestures when trying to get her attention.

    Kelce previously spoke about his attempts to catch up with Taylor, 33, while on her blockbuster Eras tour, where he had hoped to give her a bracelet with his phone number on it.

    He appears to have had the right idea, though, as the singer — who enjoyed an ‘affectionate’ late-night dinner with him after she attended his Kansas City game against the Chicago Bears on Sunday — was recently seen wearing his birthstone on a necklace.

    In the clip, which made rounds thanks to a TikTok video, Taylor said she wished guys would do something ‘crazy’ to get her attention.

    Extra’s Renee Bargh began by asking Taylor what the ‘craziest thing’ was that a boy had ever done to get her ‘attention.’

    ‘Nobody ever does anything crazy to get my attention!’ the singer replied in exasperation, which got a shocked response from the interviewer, who urged men to ‘take note.’

    Taylor was quick to add that several of her fans had done extreme things to get her attention, though.

    She said the ‘nice fans’ had made songs for her and videos, which she added was ‘really nice’ and ‘sweet,’ though it didn’t sound as if she would consider any of those gestures as a romantic prelude.

    But thinking back about men who had tried to court her, she added about their romantic gestures, ‘I can’t remember, so I guess there hasn’t been anything.’

    However, she got an excited look on her face and joked that that was ‘good.’

    ‘It’s easier, the bar is set really low for anyone I date in the future to come in and be, like, a great guy,’ she added. ‘I’ll be like, “Oh, you exist? This is so crazy.”‘

    Taylor’s under-the-radar romances were best exemplified by her last major romance with actor Joe Alwyn.

    The couple, who dated for six years before their breakup in April of this year, kept their love largely out of the spotlight, making it a noteworthy event whenever they were seen together in public.

    Joe reportedly was made uncomfortable by the public interest in his relationship with the Anti-Hero singer, which contributed to the end of their relationship.

    Even her brief fling with The 1975’s Matty Healy was largely conducted out of the public eye, a major departure for the singer and guitarist, who is known for his attention-getting and sometimes-offensive antics.

    But her newest romantic interest, Travis, doesn’t seem to be afraid of going all out to get Taylor’s attention — and win her love.

    Back in July, Travis revealed on his New Heights podcast that he had hoped to introduce himself to Taylor when he attended one of her Eras Tour stops.

    ‘I wanted to give Taylor Swift [a bracelet] with my number on it,’ the 33-year-old tight end shared, but he learned that the singer’s devotion to putting on the best performance possible made it impossible to chat with her.

    ‘I was disappointed that she doesn’t talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings, so I was a little butt-hurt I didn’t get to hand her one of the bracelets I made for her,’ he said.

    Travis’ interest in her clearly didn’t wane, and he shared on the Pat McAfee podcast this month that he tried to turn the tables by inviting her to see him play football.

    Wooing her: But Travis revealed that he tried to meet Taylor at one of her shows to give her a bracelet with his number on it. After failing, he urged her to check out one of his games in a flirty exchange; seen Sunday in Kansas City, Missouri
