Kim also noted that she was more involved with loving and nurturing her kids when they were younger. But as they got older, it started being about raising them to be respectful, intelligent, and well rounded human beings.

Kimberly met her NBA husband when they were both still in high school. After being introduced by a mutual friend of theirs, the couple began to go on dates while getting to know each other.

The lovebirds went on to date for some years before Tyson proposed in one of the most romantic ways ever!. "Cheat Sheet" reports that the basketball player recreated Richard Gere's proposal to Julia Robert in the classic romance "Pretty Woman."

He ended up proposing in the same store from the movie, and by 2005, Kimberly and Tyson got married at age 23 and 22, respectively.

Apart from being a devoted wife and doting mother, Kimberly Chandler has a career as a philanthropist and a journalist.

One thing that also interests this beauty is the fashion industry, and this has helped her land appearances on the pages of "Vogue Magazine."
