This week, we revisit a past episode of Royal Legacy where Lauren McClain chats with former BYU basketball standout Jonathan Tavernari and his wife, Kiri, about their journey as a couple blending diverse cultural backgrounds, faith, and family life. From Jonathan’s upbringing in Brazil and his transition to life in Utah to Kiri’s unique accomplishments as a multi-lingual BYU graduate, the pair shares how they met, fell in love and navigated life together. They reflect on the challenges and rewards of balancing Jonathan’s professional basketball career overseas with their family and faith, and how their shared values have shaped their legacy. Thanks for listening, and Royal Legacy will be back soon with a new episode.
