Mariska Hargitay says Knicks comeback win was ‘greatest’ night of her life
Mariska Hargitay admitted that the Knicks’ stunning comeback win in Game 4 of the NBA Finals on Wednesday might have thrilled her more than her wedding night with husband Peter Hermann.
“I love my husband, and our wedding night was great and all, but I think it might have been the greatest night of my life,” the “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit” actress told the Hollywood Reporter after the Knicks’ 107-106 victory over the Spurs at Madison Square Garden.
Hargitay, 62, has been married to Hermann, 58, since 2004, and they share three children.
A rep for Hermann was not immediately available for comment on Thursday evening.
The Knicks superfan, who was seen celebrating with Taylor Swift in a matching “Stevie Knicks” shirt following the historic win, recounted the nail-biter in a statement to the outlet.
“The game was so brutal, down 29 at the half, but I’m telling you, to watch this team fight and claw their way back — to see that look in Jalen’s [Brunson] eyes — there are just endless life lessons in there,” she wrote of the epic game.
“And then OG [Anunoby] comes flying in, his orange and blue cape fluttering behind him, and then it’s just pandemonium.”
Hargitay insisted that the moment will “get replayed again and again, not just as an epic moment in basketball, but on the highlight reel of the best moments in sports.”
She confessed, “And all I could think was ‘THAT JUST HAPPENED!!!’ And ‘OH MY GOD, I LOVE THIS TEAM!!!’ And ‘OH MY GOD, I LOVE THIS CITY!!!’”
Hargitay is a mainstay courtside fan at the Knicks’ games, where celebrities including Michael J. Fox, Ben Stiller, and Timothée Chalamet have been spotted as the best of 7 series between the NBA teams heats up.
While the big win seems to have captured the actress’s attention at the moment, she may have another huge event to look forward to on the horizon.
Hargitay, who is a longtime pal of “Life of a Showgirl” hitmaker Swift, 36, apparently has a conspicuous break in her schedule ahead of Swift’s upcoming wedding to Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce.
The actress is starring as a solo act on Broadway in “Every Brilliant Thing,” with shows running every each Friday evening.
However, an eagle-eyed fan noted and relayed to Page Six that her show is canceled on July 3 — the very date Page Six exclusively reported in April that Swift is set to marry Kelce, 36, in New York City.
Appropriately, Page Six subsequently reported earlier this month that the pair will wed at Madison Square Garden, and that everyone — including Hargitay — is “sworn to secrecy” on the matter.
