The pair, who wed in 2019, bounced over to NYC after attending the White House Correspondents’ Dinner in Washington, D.C. April 29. Their game plan for that high-profile event saw the Phoenix Mercury star sporting an all-black blazer paired with black pants. As for Cherelle, she stunned in a strapless full-length black gown.
Their Met Gala debut comes nearly five months after the 32-year-old athlete was released from Russian detention. She spent 10 months imprisoned after getting arrested at Moscow’s Sheremetyevo International Airport last February for allegedly possessing vape cartridges that contained cannabis oil in her luggage.
Following her December 2022 release, Cherelle, 30, reflected on the couple’s long journey.
“My family’s whole, I have my person,” she told People later that month. “And so I feel the most supported and safe and secure as I’ve ever felt in life.”
