It is reported that Juanita received a $168 million settlement, making it the largest celebrity divorce settlement in history at the time on public record. On July 21, 2006, a [|Cook County], Illinois judge determined that Jordan did not owe his alleged former lover Karla Knafel $5 million.Jordan had allegedly paid Knafel $250,000 to keep their relationship a secret.

A [|DNA test] showed Jordan was not the father of the child. As of 2007, Jordan lived in [|Highland Park], Illinois, and both of his sons attended [|Loyola Academy] , a private Roman Catholic high school located in [|Wilmette] , Illinois. Jeffrey graduated as a member of the 2007 graduating class and played his first collegiate basketball game on November 11, 2007, for the [|University of Illinois].

Marcus transferred to [|Whitney Young High School] after his sophomore year at Loyola Academy and graduated in 2009. He began attending UCF in the fall of 2009.
