Over time, Magic has continuously proved that despite his fame and success, his love for his parents remains the same.

Earlier in the year, Magic took to Twitter, where he shared a photo of himself and Cookie striking a pose with Christine. In his caption, he wrote:

"I'm so happy my mother is in town to visit me."

Along with his parents, another group of people Magic holds close to his heart is the family he has created for himself. In September 1991, Magic tied the knot with Cookie and the couple shares two children — Earvin "EJ" Johnson III and Elisa Johnson.

While EJ is the biological son of the couple, Elisa was adopted in 1995. In addition to the two kids, Magic is also a father to Andre whom he welcomed with a woman named Melissa Mitchell.

Last September, Magic, and Cookie both celebrated their 60th birthday with a lavish party held in St. Tropez, France. Throughout the party, the couple was seen having a wonderful time together and even today, there's no doubt that they still make each other very happy!
