Why Did Dwyane Wade Say He Try to Breakup With Gabrielle Union?
Dwyane Wade revealed that he tried to break up with Gabrielle Union before telling her that he had a child with someone else.
In an appearance on Shannon Sharpe’s Club Shay Shay program, the former NBA star talked about how he told his wife about his son, Xavier Zechariah, whom he had with Aja Metoyer in 2013. First, he talked about how scared he was to tell Union about him and Metoyer before the news went public. He said:
“You know that this is going to hurt someone you’ve been building a relationship and life with, You gotta sit with you and you gotta sit with this person if this is who you’re going to be with. I had to sit with my wife and have this conversation.”
After telling her about having his son in the midst of his hectic basketball career, he continued to thank the Bring It On star for being by his side. Wade then admitted that he made an effort to avoid bringing up the topic and even tried to break up with her. He told:
“I tried to break up with her. Like: ‘Hey things have been bad lately, we’ve been having a little distance in our relationship anyway.’ I tried all of that.”
He did say, though, that Union “kept showing up” for him and they kept going. He also said that his relationship with his wife hasn’t been perfect since they had Xavier. He added that they still “go to therapy.” He said, referring to how he’d fathered his son with Metoyer:
“We’ve been to therapy, we’ve had shouts about it, We’ve had regular conversations. And so, it’s going to continue to be something that I have to work at and work on. It doesn’t go away because years come, or because I say: ‘Sorry.’”
Have a look at the post provided below related to this interview:
In addition, Wade said that he was worried about Xavier and that it’s hard for his child to be linked to the news stories about his parents’ relationship.
He said he and his wife are either going to get through it or ain’t going to get through it. He also said he’s still thinking about his nine-year-old son, who has a negative impact next to his name. He said:
“He hasn’t even had a chance to accomplish something, and he already has a negative next to his name because of how he was brought into this world.”
He did say that he was thankful for his family, though and that he knew they’d get through things together. This isn’t the first time Wade has recalled how he told Union about his child with another woman.
Wade originally talked about how tough it was to have the chat with his wife in his 2020 ESPN documentary Wade: Life Unexpected.
