The Love Story of Former Quarterback Michael Vick

from Aisle Tell You What • Love Black History · host Hueido

Michael Vick and his wife, Kijafa, met in January 2002 at a nightclub in Virginia. Michael was already a professional football player for the Atlanta Falcons, while Kijafa was still in college. The couple's relationship blossomed over the years, and they supported each other through thick and thin. In 2007, Michael was arrested and convicted of dogfighting charges and Kijafa stood by him through the entire ordeal. So to the world, the story of Michael Vick is a story of redemption, forgiveness, and second chances. But his love story is one of perseverance, determination, and commitment.
