Gabrielle Union has opened up about the pain she went through upon finding out that her husband Dwyane Wade had a baby with another woman.
The “Bring It On” star got candid about how she felt during the situation for the first time publicly in an essay for Time. In the essay, she recalled their emotional journey to welcoming daughter Kaavia James Union-Wade, now 2, via surrogate in 2018.
Dwyane 39, welcomed son Xavier Zechariah Wade, with another woman in 2013 when he and Union were broken up.
“It should go without saying that we were not in a good place at the time that child was conceived. But we were doing much better when he finally told me about the pregnancy. To say I was devastated is to pick a word on a low shelf for convenience.
There are people, strangers I will never meet who have been upset that I have not previously talked about that trauma. I have not had words, and even after untold amounts of therapy I am not sure I have them now.” She said in the essay.

Wade previously recalled the moment he told Union about his baby with another woman in the ESPN documentary “D. Wade: Life Unexpected”, released in 2020.
“The 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.” he said in the film.
“When you hold something in that you know is going to come out and you have this information and you know it’s gonna f*ck somebody’s life up, that you care about, that you love, if it doesn’t hurt you, then you’re not human. I and Gab just went through something that you never want to go through and we still came out of it.”
