Newlyweds Karl-Anthony Towns and Jordyn Woods are living their best lives right now. After a stunning Aug. 15 wedding in Malibu, the couple jetted off to East Africa for a honeymoon that looks straight out of a movie. Woods shared a video montage on Instagram showing stops in Nairobi, Tanzania, and Zanzibar, captioning it with some seriously romantic words about living out a dream with the love of her life.
The timing couldn’t be better for Towns. The New York Knicks star just helped the franchise win its first NBA championship in 53 years, and instead of rushing back to the gym, he’s on safari with his new wife. It’s a well-deserved break before the grind starts again. The Knicks open their 2026-27 season against the Philadelphia 76ers on Oct. 20, so this quiet escape is his last real taste of freedom for a while.
Between the wildlife shots, the island views, and the obvious couple chemistry, this honeymoon is giving us serious travel envy. It also proves that even after one of the most intense basketball seasons in history, there’s nothing like some time away with your favorite person. If you could plan the perfect post-championship honeymoon, would you pick an African safari or a tropical beach getaway? Let us know in the comments.
