USA Basketball and New York Liberty star Brenna Stewart told fans "bonjour" before taking them behind the scenes of the Olympics from Paris. Stewart posted a video to social media showing what her life is like between games at the games.

The footage shows Stewie walking through the streets of France and also features some moments with her young children. Stewart is married to Marta Xargay Casademont, who played for Spain in the 2016 Olympics and was a member of the Phoenix Mercury in the WNBA. The pair have two children born via surrogacy, a daughter Ruby Mae Stewart Xargay, who they welcomed in 2021, and a son Theo Josep Stewart Xargay, who was born in 2023.

Of course Stewie is generally more recognized for what she does out on the floor and that was no different during Team USA's Olympic opener against Japan. Stewart and A'ja Wilson form a noticeably dominant front court and are a big reason why the women's basketball team is expected to bring home an 8th consecutive gold medal.

Breanna is no stranger to winning, she was part of the gold medal squad in Tokyo, and was named the Olympic Tournament's Most Valuable Player. She was also a member of the American squad that won it all during the 2016 games from Rio de Janeiro. That on top of the four NCAA titles and two WNBA championships she has to her name. Stewart is the reigning MVP in the W and the Liberty currently top the standings at the break.
