Magic Johnson Reflects on His Romantic Yacht Vacation with Wife Cookie

Magic and “Cookie” Johnson, his wife, took a week off from their epic summer travels to spend some quality time together.

The 63-year-old former NBA player and the 64-year-old former model “shared a beautiful night in Dubrovnik, Croatia” at the Nautika Restaurant, he claimed.

Photos of Magic and his wife on a carousel with the statement, “The view was spectacular and the food was amazing,” were posted to Instagram.

Magic claimed that the Nautika Restaurant had “amazing” dinners and was “right behind” Fort Lovrijenac, “where Game of Thrones was filmed!”

Magic went on to sаy that he and his wife of more than three decades spent “a beautiful week” together “hаnging out, dating, reminiscing, and watching Special Ops: Lioness with Zoe Saldana, Hijаck with Idris Elba, and other TV shows and movies.”Since the beginning of July, Johnson and his family have been touring Europe. On July 5, he and Cookie went to the restaurant Michelangelo in Antibes, France, and he began writing about their travels there. Several celebrities have joined them, such as Judge Greg Mathis and his wife Linda, Michael Jordan and his wife Yvette, and Samuel L. Jackson and his wife LaTanya.

The announcement that Johnson and others, including Apollo Global Management co-founder Josh Harris, have acquired the Washingtоn Commanders forced Johnson to cut short his vacation and return to the United States. According to the Wall Street Journal, the group acquired control of the franchise in a $6 billiоn deal that was approved by all 32 NFL owners on July 20.

The possibility to become an NFL owner as a Black guy, Magic Johnson described as a “great opportunity” during his time off from vacation on the Today show.

“As a proud Black man, it’s important to me to break these barriers and go through these doors,” Magic told Today host Craig Melvin through tears on July 21. “You’ve brought tears to my eyes.”

“I don’t know why God blessed me with these opportunities, but I’m going to excel, not only for myself, but for my family, and for all African Americans, making sure we can see [ourselves] in these seats,” the NBA Hall of Famer stated. And I want people to know that we are capable of completing this task.
