Last year, Dwyane Wade pulled off an unforgettable birthday surprise for his wife’s 50th celebration in South Africa. Now, as The Flash marks his 42nd birthday, it’s Gabrielle Union’s turn to reciprocate the love. To commemorate his special day, she crafted a touching tribute video for her husband, sharing the heartfelt gesture on Instagram.
To add some romance to the Miami Heat legend’s video, she chose singer Bebe Winan’s famous ‘I Found Love’ in the background. With an emotional note Union wrote, “You are a gift to me, your family, and everyone you encounter. Your purpose is rooted in the divine. May the blessings on blessings rain down on you. Love you Bay…[Cheers] to 42.”
In the video, we can see D-Wade trying to make his game face and it slowly transitions to basketball moments from Marquette to Miami Heat. Then it turns to the moment their daughter was born. This came after years of miscarriages. It was a pivotal moment as they had to use IVF for the birth. Then it shifts to a few clips from their marriage and they had this signature handshake. At the end of the video, it mentioned the latest announcement of his statue which will be erected outside the Miami Heat arena.
