With pride, Dwyane Wade is enamored with his daughter Kaavia James. The retired NBA player was accompanied by the youngest member of the Wade-Union family as he and representatives from his production company, 59th and Prairie Entertainment, went to the Los Angeles Rams vs. Cleveland Browns home game at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood on December 3.
Wade was wearing a white long sleeve shirt, a pink beanie, and pink sweatpants. His little girl was wearing all white with bright pink accents on her Princess Tianna top. The former athlete posted numerous images to his Instagram Story showing the 5-year-old and him matching each other’s joyful enthusiasm on game day.
The two look amused as they smile for a selfie in one picture. In another, they served up identical looks by forming duck lips, but Kaavia gave her pose some flare by raising her hand and giving the peace sign to the camera.
Wade also caught a sweet moment in which Gabrielle Union’s daughter was seen putting lip gloss on her father’s puckered lips. The movie was captioned, “I love being a Girl Dad!” by him. The 41-year-old and Kaavia, who is occupying a booster seat, perform a father-daughter duet of the South Korean group BTS’s smаsh song “Butter” in another post.
As the photos were circulated on social media, the priceless moments sparked a wave of responses. Wade’s use of the term “girl dad,” which gained popularity when Kobe Bryant self-deprecatingly called himself one, offended someone. The late sports legend and his wife, Vanessa Bryant, had four daughters together.
“He’s not a dad to girls. You guys misuse the term. Kobe stated that since he was a father of all girls. If you just have one gender, you may be a boy mom, girl dad, etc. “Thanks, Management,” one commenter said. Out of his four biological children, two of them are boys: Wade’s eldest and second youngest.
Some made a crude attempt to disparage the Wade Cellars partner’s masculinity. “Y’all never seen little girls put makeup in their dad, paint their nails, play dress up and do tea parties?” was one of the comments left by supporters supporting him. “Y’all find it really bothersome that he’s a loving father; that speaks more highly of you than it does of him.”
A minimum of one individual discovered amusement in the lip gloss incident by referencing Kaavia’s past as the “Shady Baby.” “Knowing Kaavia, she probably told him his lips were ashy,” the authors said.
Wade’s prior relationships produced four children. 2018 saw the surrogate birth of Kaavia, who is the only kid he and Union have together. For a while, the couple’s spirited toddler—known online as “Shady Baby”—was the subject of several headlines about them. But since then, attention has turned to their relationships.
The married pair of over ten years have been the focus of speculations of a break and impending divorce in recent weeks. Though neither has publicly addressed the rumors, perceptive followers are certain that the dearth of fresh sentimental messages is proof that something is wrong in Wade-Union heaven.
