Dwayne Wade is undoubtedly one of the greatest shooting guards to ever suit up in the league. There were reasons NBA Fans tagged him with the nick of “Flash” as his post-game especially with the dunks he used to make was monstrous, unreal and godlike. He was just 24 years old when he carried his team to the NBA Finals and then proving everyone wrong got the job done. Dwayne Wade was really a perfect player who stayed committed and got the well-deserved result with a lot of work put in. He has three rings which add to his greatness, the other two came in during his time with LeBron James and Chris Bosh (first-ever super-team of the league). But many still ride with the take that they needed him to win, and he was enough to get it done alone too.
Dwayne Wade has a stacked resume with a successful career in the league. He has also made it to the NBA 75 team and now is enjoying retirement as Utah Jazz’s co-owner. But life off the court with his family wasn’t easy for him, especially with his wife Gabrielle Union. As Dwayne Wade has no kids together with his wife Gabrielle. Because she was diagnosed with a “pronounced” case of adenomyosis in 2016 which started in her 20s. Adenomyosis is a condition in which endometrial tissue exists within and grows into the uterine wall. Because of this condition she has had several miscarriages. But they didn’t give up on each other and are still together as one of the fan favorite couples from the league.
But in 2013, when they were on a break Dwayne Wade fathered another child (his son Xavier Zechariah Wade) with Aja Metoyer. This really spiced-up some things between them as the relationship got awkward with media involvement and D-Wade wasn’t even able to say it to Gabrielle Union as it was a lot heavier task for him than even winning an NBA championship.
Dwayne Wade and Gabrielle Union have a tough conversation about Xavier
Dwayne wasn’t able to tell Union that he had a child with Aja Metoyer. As talking about that particular time of his life in his documentary “D. Wade: Life Unexpected”, he quoted: “I had a child with someone else and I had to tell [Union]. Hardest thing I’ve ever had to do is man up and tell Gabrielle Union that I’ve had a child with somebody else…I couldn’t sleep. I wasn’t eating.”
Even Gabrielle Union explaining that tough phase of her life in her memoir “You Got Anything Stronger”, wrote: “To say I was devastated is to pick a word on a low shelf for convenience…The experience of Dwyane having a baby so easily, while I was unable to. Left my soul not just broken into pieces, but shattered into fine dust scattering in the wind.” Fortunately, this didn’t ruin the beautiful relationship they have maintained till today as they got past the incident. The couple has also welcomed Kaavia (through surrogacy) in 2018 and are still together living their best possible life while loving each other.
