From acting to activism, Gabrielle Union has donned various hats in her career. On Women’s Day though, Dwyane Wade’s wife took up a teacher’s role. The 51-year-old has always focussed more on teaching the right values to her kids. She has done that for her stepdaughter, Zaya, and continues doing that for Kaavia. In her Instagram post, Union shared a heartwarming clip of all their adorable mother-daughter moments compiled together.

Along with the video, she penned a sweet message and lesson she wants her daughter to learn. She captioned it saying, “Raising her to blossom in any environment 🌸 #InternationalWomensDay.” From enjoying on a beach to going crazy during karaoke, the reel consists of the best moments of the two together.

K. Michelle’s ‘A Mother’s Prayer‘ gives it an emotional touch. D-Wade also makes an appearance in the video, where the three can be seen taking in the sun on a boat.

While Dwyane Wade is a champion on the basketball court, Union triumphed and achieved success in every aspect of her life. The Bring It On actress is also a stepmother to Wade’s kids from her previous relationship and shares a great bond with them.

Gabrielle Union’s heartwarming bonding with stepdaughter Zaya Wade

Wade has always credited his wife Union for keeping the family together. Even during the 3x champ’s absence, she ensured to be the support system for Wade’s kids. She has been a big support system for Zaya and has been constantly with her teenage daughter through thick and thin.

In an interview, Zaya spoke about the beautiful relationship she shares with her stepmother. Furthermore, she mentioned the valuable lesson that Union taught her. Speaking of Union, Zaya shared, “It’s about being you and expressing yourself the way you want to. She (Union) tries to teach me that beauty standards are arbitrary and that they don’t mean anything,” 

The 16-year-old model added, “They don’t matter anymore; what people thought was the standard is not. And just that being myself is the best technique out there.” The two are often seen wearing matching fits and flaunting similar fashion. The mother of four was also present at Zaya’s debut runway show to support her.

Both Union and the Miami Heat champion showed immense love and strength to their daughter during her journey to get her name and gender legalized. There could not have been a more effective teacher than Gabrielle. What are your thoughts on this? Let us know in the comments section below.
