Gabrielle Union & Dwayne Wade News 2014: TMZ Confirms Couple Was NOT On break When Baby Was Conceived
The Internet has been abuzz for the past two days with the reports of basketball star Dwayne Wade's love child. When the story first broke, Wade claimed that the child was conceived during a time that he was "on a break" from his relationship with his now-fiancée, actress Gabrielle Union.
But now, TMZ is reporting that the child was conceived during a time that the couple were NOT "on a break"!
According to Bonnie Fuller's Hollywood Life, Wade told Entertainment Weekly that Gabrielle was aware of Aja and that they were "on a break" during Xavier's conception, but a photo posted on Gabrielle's Instagram on February 5, 2013 (9 months before Xavier's birth) suggests otherwise. The photo shows Dwyane cuddling up to the couple's dog Sasha, with the caption "Sasha don't play when it comes to her man... 'Down to ride 'til the very end, it's me and my boyfriend.'"
And there's more -- according to TMZ, on Feb. 19, Gabby posted another pic of Dwyane holding one of her scripts ... with the caption, "It takes a village to help an actress learn her lines... @dwyanewade takin a break from his Gatorade commercial to give me a line reading. Thanks coach :)"
We'll recall that February is nine months before the baby was conceived... so if the duo WERE on a break, it must have only been for a few hours!
In any regard, this lovey-dovey InstaPDA continued until about April, where Gabrielle began posting cryptic quotes, such as "we cannot start over, but we can begin now, and make a new ending." (Around this time in April, too, reports began surfacing that Wade was cheating on Union...)
But don't cry for Gabby just yet... according to Entertainment Tonight, she knew about the child before he proposed to her, and she accepted his proposal regardless.
