Dwyane Wade’s wife, Gabrielle Union, recently shared a heartwarming moment from her daughter Kaavia James’ school play on social media. The proud mother posted videos of Kaavia James dancing and acting on stage, receiving flowers for her performance. The clips, originally posted on Kaavia James’ Instagram account, captured the little girl’s talent and charm as she entertained the audience.
Union couldn’t contain her excitement and admiration for her daughter’s performance, captioning the post with a simple yet powerful word, “Everything!!!”. She also encouraged Kaavia James to share her experience with her father, Dwyane Wade, who unfortunately missed the play.
The couple welcomed Kaavia via surrogacy in 2018, a year before Wade retired from professional basketball. Since then, Kaavia has become a lively presence on social media, showcasing her personality and adventures with her doting parents.
In a candid interview with People magazine, Wade and Union opened up about their parenting philosophy for Kaavia James. Wade expressed his desire for his daughter to have the freedom to explore her interests and assert her independence. He emphasized the importance of listening to Kaavia and nurturing her individuality from a young age.
Union echoed Wade’s sentiments, highlighting the significance of self-compassion and empathy in their household. She emphasized the importance of fostering a sense of compassion within the family, which would ultimately shape Kaavia’s worldview.
Kaavia James is Wade’s only child with Union, while he has three other children from previous relationships. Family has been a central focus for Wade since retiring from basketball, and he and Union have prioritized creating a supportive and nurturing environment for their blended family.
As one of the most recognizable couples in Hollywood, Wade and Union continue to inspire others with their dedication to parenting and commitment to raising confident and compassionate children. Their journey as parents is a testament to the power of love, communication, and understanding in shaping the next generation.
