Debuted as Katarina Katie Darlington in ‘She’s All That’, Gabrielle Union-Wade started her film industry career in 1999. However, she has been working in the entertainment industry since 1993, making mostly blink-and-miss appearances in different TV series. And as her acting career progressed, she started her entrepreneurial journey as well.

Only a few would know that she even appeared in one of the most popular sitcoms of the 1990s— ‘FRIENDS”. From those short guest appearances to a renowned name in the industry, Union-Wade has come a long way. So, let’s have a closer look at how much wealth has the ‘Breaking in‘ star amassed. 

Net worth of Gabrielle Union-Wade 

According to Celebrity Net Worth, the net worth of Union Wade is $40 million. The initial primary contributing factor for this has been her acting stints. Beyond that, she has engaged herself in some techinal roles as well such as producer and executive producer. According to ‘The Numbers’, she appeared in 13 movies in a supporting role, and in 10 movies in a lead role until 2024. However, she has more projects to her name which do not fall into either of these categories. Her most notable works on the big screen include ‘Bring It On’, ‘Bad Boys II’, and multiple others.  

Although Union-Wade was grabbing decent projects on the big screen, she did not bid farewell to the TV industry either. After multiple guest appearances and single-episode appearances, she found her place in the main cast for the first time in the 2000 TV series ‘City of Angels’. After this, she appeared as a main cast member in other multiple series as well. Notably, by the time she met Dwyane Wade in 2007, she had already established herself as an accomplished actor.

However, she did not let her married life with the former Miami Heat star affect her professional growth. In fact, she made her debut as a producer in 2016 after her marriage to Wade in 2014. As per the information on ‘The Numbers’, her first movie as a producer was ‘Breaking In’, which had a worldwide box-office collection of $51.4 million. But this is still just Gabrielle Union Wade’s sources of income from the entertainment industry. Apart from this, she has various other ventures that contribute to her wealth.

Union Wade’s business ventures 

Apart from being a basketball wife, a mother to 5 children, and an actress, the ‘Bad Boys II’ star is also a successful businesswoman. One of the popular businesses by the ‘Bring It On’ star is “Flawless by Gabrielle Union”, which is a natural hair care line including a selection of shampoos, conditioners, and leave-in treatments. Yet another popular brand owned by Union-Wade is a cracker line called Bitsy’s, which, according to the company’s official website, bakes crackers with organic veggies.

Her other business ventures include Proudly, Jomboy Media, Somewhere Good, and multiple others. Some of these businesses are co-owned by Dwyane Wade and his wife. However, this is no indication that the two mix up their professional and personal work. In fact, as revealed by the couple, the two even split their bills to keep the finances clear. “It’s weird to say I’m head of household, because in this household, we split everything 50/50,” Union has said. 

Being the businesswoman that she is, Union has made solid ventures in real estate as well. Reportedly, her first real estate venture with her husband happened when they purchased a home in Miami for $10.6 million in 2021. The same was then sold for $22 million in 2021.

But even more surprising is the fact that her list of sources of income does not end here. Apart from everything listed above, Gabrielle Union-Wade is also an author. Two of her works include ‘You Got Anything Stronger?’ and ‘We’re Going to Need More Wine’, which is a New York Times bestseller. So it is clear that her $40.6 net worth includes a lot of work and different approaches put in by her. And as evident from her upcoming projects, she is in no mood to take a rest with her financial growth.
