Outside the NBA Bubble: Nina Westbrook Reveals Her Trick For Staying Close With Husband Russell Westbrook
Her issues, the 31-year-old continued, were "mainly just because my kids are so young and the prospect of their dad being gone for so long, like that's a huge chunk of their lives when you really put things into perspective." But more than a decade into their romance—the two meeting when they were standouts on the men's and women's squads at UCLA—she knows her partner.
. "It's a very unique situation that we've all found ourselves in," she said. "And so being able to kind of lean on each other for that support and gather and get together, and kind of just know that other people know what you're going through and they're kind of navigating and trying to figure their own ways as well, it's just helpful."
In fact, more often than not, Russell is dialing in to be part of family time. "He's very much so a FaceTime person," Nina said of the 2017 NBA MVP. "He likes to FaceTime the kids and FaceTime me all day long, and that's kind of been a saving grace for us." The onlyglitch is that her kids perk up each time her cell phone rings. "My girls just light up, you know, on the phone whenever Dad calls," she said.
So she's made it a point to indulge her myriad hobbies. "I spend a lot of time doing things that make me happy," she shared. "I've taken up photography. I've started teaching myself how to play piano." And she's scheduled in pockets of alone time whenever possible. "Sometimes it just means I'm going to go out and just run and get coffee and just spend time by myself," she said. Or she makes it a movie night.
