Draya Michele was criticized for her relationship with Houston Rockets star Jalen Green, but the couple didn't let the outside noise get between them. And now they're celebrating even more.

Draya, 39, and Green, 22, started dating in August 2023 and immediately realized they had a 17-year age difference.

The couple pushed aside the negative attention and made it clear that the haters would not come between them. “We try to stay off the internet and not really listen to stuff like that,” Draya told TMZ at the time. “We’ll tune it out and mind our business.”
