Since Stewart and Xargay’s wild summer in 2021, the couple had another child, Theo.
The USA Basketball star shared that she’s excited to experience the Paris Games with her family as they all travel with her to France.
“Ruby and Theo and Marta, the whole gang will be coming to Paris,” Stewart said of her family. “I’m excited to kind of have everyone be a part of it and enjoy the fun with me.”
In addition to her gold medals, Stewart has won multiple awards in her storied career. She’s a two-time WNBA champion and two-time WNBA Finals MVP. She’s also won the league’s regular season MVP honor twice. The five-time WNBA All-Star was the college national player of the year winner from 2014-16 before turning pro.
