Although the basketball legend could not celebrate his wife's birthday in grand style as he did during Cookie's 60th birthday due to the pandemic, Magic still found a way to improvise.

"I love being married to you, you always come up with the best adventures & surprises."

Magic and Cookie have had their various challenges in the past. Magic was diagnosed with HIV early in his career and the news had shaped their family.

Cookie revealed that Magic locked himself in a room to call his ex-lovers because he was having unprotected sex with them. However, Magic and Cookie got past that ugly situation to build a healthy relationship.
