Tayshaun Prince Wife: Who Is He Married To? (2026)
Tayshaun Prince, the former NBA small forward best known for the Detroit Pistons' 2004 championship team, is married to his wife Farah Prince (née Brown). The couple married in 2005, and they have at least one son, Tahj Prince.
Who Is Farah Prince?
Farah Brown, now known as Farah Prince, is Tayshaun Prince's college sweetheart. The two met while Prince attended the University of Kentucky from 1998 to 2002, and they married in 2005 — during Prince's third NBA season with the Detroit Pistons. Unlike many celebrity spouses, Farah has kept an extremely low public profile; public sources name her and the marriage year but publish little else about her personal life.
Marriage Timeline
Tayshaun Prince married Farah Brown in 2005. Their wedding came one year after Prince helped the Pistons win the 2004 NBA championship, and just before the 2005–06 season in which he played all 82 regular-season games, averaging 14.1 points and 4.2 rebounds. Their marriage has lasted over two decades, spanning the rest of Prince's 14-season playing career (through 2016) and his post-retirement executive career with the Memphis Grizzlies, where he was promoted to Vice President of Basketball Affairs in April 2019.
Children
Sources agree the couple has a son named Tahj Prince. Some biographical sites, including JewScope and RichOrNot, state the couple has two children, while others name only Tahj. One older source lists Prince as having no children, but that entry appears outdated given the majority of more recent sources. No public information beyond their names is available about the children.
