The Wades have had a hectic year! While Dwyane Wade is hosting Today’s morning show with Jenna Bush Hager, he has also made appearances on his friends’ podcasts. On the other hand, his wife, Gabrielle Union, has just wrapped up some big projects and is occupied with promotions. However, that didn’t stop the two from showing up for their friend’s special day! As the famed Desperate Housewives actress turned 50 this year, the couple was present for the big celebrations.

Eva Longoria doesn’t need an introduction! She has starred in hit movies and shows such as The Sentinel, For Greater Glory, and more. Longoria also shares a great bond with Union. The actress just shared a snippet of her adorable exchange with the Bring It On actress on her IG story. “Love you so much,” she captioned it with heart emojis. 

Union wore a red gown for the night and paired it with a sleek high ponytail. The Miami Heat legend wore an all-black outfit and a cool red cap to go with it. The party was held in Miami, as the actress posted on her IG. Before the DJ performance closed the night, Longoria’s IG stories showed Becky G’s special performance as well.

Both Union and Longoria are also working on several projects together. During the Oscars last year, the actress revealed that the two are starring in a movie together. Both will likely play parents of a queer couple. “One is called Divorcees, and the other is a take on Mother of the Bride, except it is two mothers of nonbinary children who get married,” the Bring It On actress told Out. 

Both will likely produce and star in the project as well. “Eva and I try to take over their wedding [planning] and make it the wedding of our dreams versus theirs,” Union explained the story. Not just projects, the two have also previously spoken about breaking one norm.

Both Union and Longoria have been a part of Hollywood for a long time. And the two have worked and spoken out to make the industry a more comfortable space for everyone including working mothers. In 2018, both actresses welcomed their child. Union and Wade had their daughter, Kaavia, via surrogacy, while Longoria gave birth to her son, Santiago Enrique. Both spoke about motherhood and the challenges of being working mothers.

Union, who was working with Jessica Alba on the production and starring in L.A.’s Finest, shared how Alba ensured she could bring her daughter to the set. Alba also gave birth to her son in the same year. “When Jessica was negotiating she had just given birth and was just very clear about what she needed and that she understood her value, and it paved the way for all of us to have access to our kids,” Union said Harper’s Bazaar.

Longoria has spoken about how motherhood changed her view of life. “I have my family. I have a supportive husband. So there’s that disclaimer. But it is uncommon in our industry for women to direct and produce, much less so a woman with a baby,” Longoria told Harper’s Bazaar. The two are yet to reveal further updates on their projects.
