Dwayne Wade says telling his wife he fathered a child outside marriage was the most difficult thing

Dwyane Wade said telling his wife he fathered a child with another woman while they were on a break was the biggest challenge of his life.

The NBA great opened up about letting Gabrielle Union know he welcomed Xavier, six, with “Basketball Wives” star, Aja Metoyerin, in 2013 while the couple were estranged and shortly before he proposed to Union.

“I had a child with someone else and I had to tell her. Hardest thing I’ve ever had to do is man up and tell Gabrielle Union that I’ve had a child with somebody else,” he said in his upcoming ESPN documentary “D. Wade: Life Unexpected,” according to . “I couldn’t sleep. I wasn’t eating.”

“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–k somebody’s life up, that you care about, that you love, if it don’t hurt you, then you’re not human,” Wade continued.

“Me and Gab just went through something that you never want to go through and we still came out of it.”

Wade was already dad to Zaire, 18, and Zaya, 12, and guardian to nephew Dahveon, 18.

The basketball legend and Union married in 2014. “She wasn’t just marrying me, she was marrying all this baggage,” he said of including his kids in the proposal, according to the outlet.
