Gabriel Union’s Husband Dwayne Wade Refers to his 12 Year Son as a “SHE”

NBA star Dwyane Wade opened up in a new interview about parenting his 12-year-old Zion Malachi Airamis, for the first time referred to his child using the “she” pronoun.

Wade previously showed his support for Zion by sharing a photo of her at Miami Beach Pride on Instagram, writing “we support each other with pride.”

It wasn’t intended to be a big statement, yet it felt seismic to many when NBA player Dwyane Wade recently opened up about his relationship with his child, Zion, 12—and for the first time referred to using “she/her” pronouns.

This came just weeks after Wade fired back at online trolls questioning Zion’s appearance in a Thanksgiving family photo. “I’ve been chosen to lead my family not y’all,” he tweeted at the time in response. “So we will continue to be us and support each other with pride, love & a smile!”

Well first of all, you want to talk about strength and courage? My 12-year-old has way more than I have,” Wade told All the Smoke co-hosts (and former NBA players): Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson. “You can learn something from your kids. In our household, that’s all we talk about; we talk about making sure our kids are seen by each of us. Me and my wife [Gabrielle Union], we talk about making sure our kids understand the power in their voice. We want them to be whoever they feel they can be in this world. That’s our goal: Understand you can be whoever, you can be whatever.”

Wade says he had to look himself in the mirror when he and his wife were noticing that at 3 years old, Zion “wasn’t on the boy vibe that [our son] Zaire was on.” “So I had to look myself in the mirror and say ‘What are you going to do if your son comes home and tell you he’s gay? What are you going to do? How are you going to be? How are you going to act? It ain’t about him. He knows who he is, it’s about you. Who are you?'”

Despite the critics, Wade has received a lot of support on social media.
