Russell successfully proposed and kissed his girlfriend! A sweet family photo of four; he was rumored to have cheated at the end of July.

On September 24th Beijing time, Mavericks newcomer Russell’s girlfriend, Laura, posted on social media the scene of Russell proposing to her. At the beach in front of a heart-shaped flower arrangement, Russell asked Laura to marry him, and they shared a tender kiss and celebrated with champagne beneath fireworks.

Laura joyfully displayed her diamond ring to the camera and also shared a sweet family photo of the four of them on social media. Laura is a fashion model and is four years younger than Russell. They began dating in 2020 and now have two children together.

The proposal photos Laura shared sparked widespread discussion on social media; many fans sent their blessings, but some also mentioned news from two months ago when an adult film actress revealed Russell’s infidelity on social media.

She wrote: “D’Angelo Russell, you need to come out and explain yourself. Stop deceiving your white girlfriend with me.” The adult actress posted four screenshots of conversations with Russell, showing that he privately messaged and invited her in June 2024.

Nick Young was asked about the matter and said, “What can I say? You know, God answers all prayers. Jaw Morant (the whistleblowing adult actress), she’s the GOAT. I admire what you did; you’re truly talented. Snitches never have a good ending. Salute to Jaw Morant, oh yeah.”

It is well known that Russell and Nick Young were teammates on the Lakers, but because Russell recorded Nick Young admitting to cheating, it led to Nick Young’s breakup with his fiancée Iggy. The “recording scandal” caused lasting resentment and broke their relationship.

However, this cheating rumor does not seem to have affected Russell’s relationship with his girlfriend. Two months later, Russell’s proposal was successful. In the new season, with Irving needing to recover from injury, Russell is expected to join the Mavericks’ starting lineup.
