During their summer vacation abroad, the Johnsons — who were joined by granddaughters Gigi and Avery — chartered a 296-foot yacht, Phoenix II, and cruised around the continent. Webster kept everyone well fed by preparing many delicious meals.

In one Instagram post from the vacation, Magic gloated about Webster’s food. “The Phoenix 2 crew put on a Greek god and goddess extravaganza tonight on the yacht,” he said. “We had a lot of fun masquerading and dancing, and cook Daisy prepared an excellent spread for us! What a beautiful sunset tonight in Greece.”

“Our family had a great time today at Palazzo San Domenico in Taormina, the Four Seasons Hotel in Sicily,” the basketball star wrote in an Instagram post at the time. “Many of the art objects and artifacts in the hotel are from the 1800s, and a fun fact is that the second season of White Lotus was filmed on the property! I recommend everyone traveling to Sicily in Italy to stay at the hotel and eat at Anciovia!”

Along with visits from the couple’s children and grandchildren, Samuel L. Jackson, Michael Jordan, Judge Greg Mathis and their wives joined the party after the boat headed for Capri.
