Bronny James, the 19-year-old up-and-coming basketball star, has shown he’s not just inheriting his father’s skills on the court – he’s also taking cues from his parents’ legendary love story off the court. Hours after sharing a heartwarming photo on Instagram of himself and girlfriend Parker Whitfield at Disneyland Paris, captioned “I miss my baby,” Bronny proved he’s got some serious romantic game.
With the pressures of his rookie season with the Lakers and the long stretches away from loved ones, Bronny knew just how to keep the spark alive. Inspired by his parents, LeBron and Savannah James, who have set a high standard as one of sports’ most admired couples, the young James went above and beyond. Bronny sent Parker a bouquet of flowers along with a handwritten note that read, “Your bf loves you so much.” Parker posted the sweet surprise on her Instagram story, tagging Bronny and adding a few teary-eyed emojis.
Bronny then reshared her post, adding two simple kissing emojis, making their connection crystal clear. His thoughtful gesture shows just how much he’s invested in their relationship, even amid the hustle of his debut season. Growing up with a front-row seat to his parents’ enduring relationship seems to have left a lasting impact on the USC alum, who’s clearly learned the art of romance.
While Bronny’s off-court charm is shining through, he’s also navigating the challenges of his rookie year, recently facing a tough game against the Pistons. But it’s clear that the young guard is already balancing the demands of his budding career with the same thoughtfulness his parents have shown for years. For Bronny, it looks like keeping his relationship with Parker strong is as much a priority as perfecting his game.
