Dwayne Wade SLAMS Gabrielle Union For Exposing His Gay Affairs… Alleges Her Abuse?
In late October 2023, viral videos began circulating on various social media platforms, alleging that NBA champion Dwyane Wade and actor Gabrielle Union were heading for divorce, with Union accusing Wade of infidelity.
However, these claims were baseless.
The rumors stemmed from public knowledge about Wade and Union’s relationship history. In January 2013, they briefly split, but reconciled later that year and became engaged in December. However, during their separation, Wade fathered a child, a fact mentioned in the viral videos.
The first mention of these unfounded claims appeared on a Deux U podcast episode released on Oct. 26, 2023. The podcast, known for unverified celebrity gossip, relayed anonymous messages alleging trouble in Wade and Union’s relationship, though no concrete evidence of cheating was provided.
Shortly after, a viral YouTube video titled “Gabrielle Union DIVORCES Dwyane Wade For Cheating On Her” was posted by the channel Misstee on Oct. 30, 2023. The video referenced the Deux U podcast claims and garnered significant views across platforms like TikTok, Reddit, and Facebook.
A subsequent video by the same channel, titled “Gabrielle Union EXPOSES Dwayne Wade’s GAY Affairs,” continued spreading the unverified claims. Despite the lack of evidence, these videos generated substantial engagement due to their mixture of factual relationship history and emotionally charged language.
While the rumors surrounding Wade and Union lacked credibility, they underscored the prevalence of misleading celebrity gossip online. Similar false claims have circulated in the past, highlighting the importance of critical thinking and fact-checking in navigating digital media.
