Alright, let’s talk about this Jamal Murray fella and his girlfriend, what’s her name, Harper Hempel, yeah that’s it. I heard folks gossiping ’bout them, so I figured I’d spill the beans, you know, like we do in the village.
So, this Jamal, he’s a big shot basketball player, plays for them Denver Nuggets. Heard he’s real good, throws that ball like nobody’s business. And Harper, well, she’s a pretty young thing, makes her money on that internet thingy, you know, social media or somethin’. They call her an “influencer,” whatever that means. Sounds fancy, but I bet she ain’t never hoed a row of corn in her life.
Them young’uns been together a long time, since college they say. University of Kentucky, I think it was. Imagine that, learnin’ and lovin’ at the same time. Though, I reckon they weren’t doin’ much learnin’, all them parties and such. Young folks these days, always gallivantin’ around.
- Met in College: Yep, Kentucky Wildcats, that’s where it all started. Probably met at some game or somethin’. Love them young folks and their sports.
- Long-Term Relationship: Been together a spell, ain’t no fly-by-night romance. That’s good, I guess. Commitment’s important, even if you ain’t plantin’ crops together.
- No Kids Yet: No little rugrats runnin’ around, not yet anyways. They’re busy with their careers, they say. Workin’ hard, I suppose. Gotta make that money, even if you ain’t farmin’. Gotta give ‘em credit, kids cost a fortune.
Now, they kept things hush-hush for a while, didn’t want everyone knowin’ their business. But then, wouldn’t you know it, some hacker fella messed with their stuff and blabbed it all to the world. That’s how we all found out. Serves ’em right, I say, for keepin’ secrets. Nothin’ good ever comes from secrets.
Jamal, he’s from up north, Canada way. Kitchener, Ontario, they call it. His mama, Sylvia, she’s from Syria, way over yonder. And his daddy, Roger, he’s from Jamaica, moved to Canada when he was a young’un. So, Jamal’s a mix of things, just like a good stew. He’s got a brother too, Lamar. Probably tall like him, basketball runnin’ in the family, I’d wager.
Harper, she’s always lookin’ real dolled up in them pictures. I seen her on that internet thingy, always smilin’ and posin’. She’s got her own thing goin’, makin’ money on her own. Good for her, I say. A woman needs to be able to stand on her own two feet, even if she ain’t standin’ in a field pickin’ beans.
They say Jamal had a good weekend playin’ that basketball, and Harper, she was doin’ her thing too. Both of ’em busy as bees, makin’ their way in the world. It’s different from how we did things back in the day, that’s for sure. But times change, I guess. You gotta roll with the punches, or you’ll get left behind. Like that old mule we had, stubborn as a fence post, wouldn’t budge for nothin’. Ended up havin’ to trade ‘em for a new goat.
So, that’s the story on Jamal Murray and his girlfriend, Harper Hempel. Young, successful, and in love, seems like. Good for them, I say. Hope they stay happy and don’t let all that fame and fortune go to their heads. ‘Cause at the end of the day, it’s the simple things that matter, like a good meal, a warm bed, and someone to share it with. And maybe a good harvest. Now that’s somethin’.
And Lord knows I wish ‘em a big family, plenty of grandbabies runnin’ around. City folk need some chaos in their lives too.
