JULIE AND PAUL TIED THE KNOT IN 2010

After dating for five years and welcoming their first child, Julie and Paul decided it was time to settle down. In 2010, the couple got married in a private ceremony that had about only 80 guests present.

The wedding was held in California at the Resort at Pelican Hill in Newport Coast, California, and Prianna, who was already two at the time, served as the flower girl.

Two years after the birth of Adrian, the couple welcomed their last child, son Prince Paul Pierce on April 2, 2013. At the time of Prince's arrival, Paul reportedly implied that his son might be a basketballer just like him.

However, during an interview with Fatherly, in 2018, Paul revealed that Prince had taken up interest and was already playing softball.

Not only was Paul a legend of the NBA, but he also doubles as an equally amazing family man who loves nothing more than being a husband and a father.
