The artwork was a simple illustration of the festive season. Michele wished her more than nine million followers a "Merry Christmas" through her drawing. She drew a snowman and some Christmas lights.

The "Merry" in the illustration was written in green, representing the green leaves of a Christmas tree, while the "Christmas" was written in red. The whole artwork was made with colored pencils, which can be seen lying around behind the drawing.

Michele and Green have been together since 2023 and share a baby daughter. However, the massive age gap between them has been a subject of repeated criticism for social media influence. Michele is 39, while the Houston Rockets guard is 22.

Green's girlfriend recently shared a picture of herself alongside her daughter, which grabbed the attention of the Rockets' star. In the photo, Michele is seen sporting a silver puffer jacket while holding her and Green's baby in her arms. The child also wears the same puffer jacket as her mother.

The video starts with Michele putting on an apron and getting ready to make hand-rolled candy canes. Their instructor puts liquid candy in a frame and adds color to it before handing it over to Michele's son, Jru. The mother-son duo then proceeds to follow the instructions and make the candy canes.

The kid featured in the video was Michele's second son, whom she conceived with former NFL star Orlando Scandrick. While Michele was learning how to make candy canes, Green was busy helping his team stack up wins.

The Rockets are having a great run this season. They have a record of 18-9 and are the third seed in the Western Conference. Green is playing an essential role for the squad, averaging 19.5 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 2.6 assists.
