“My style evolves daily and I dress how I feel.” That’s how fashion icon Gabrielle Union describes her personal style philosophy. Honestly, though, with her effortless poses, infectious smile, and knockout outfits, that line almost feels like an understatement. Because when it comes to style, Gabrielle and Dwyane play in a league of their own. From bold suits to stunning red carpet moments, this couple knows how to make statements. And now, little Kaavia is officially joining that fashionable league, proving that style confidence might just run in the family’s DNA. But the young soul has a problem! Oh, big enough for her age!
Gabrielle Union and her six-year-old daughter Kaavia Wade recently sat down for an exclusive, candid interview with People magazine together. During the chat, they shared hilarious stories, heartwarming memories, and played a fun round of Q&A filled with personal confessions. The playful game gave fans a brand new, inside look at Dwyane Wade’s family. It turns out that the “Breaking In” star loves switching up her look with wigs that perfectly match her mood and personality. But the fun part is her “mini-me” Kaavia, seems to have inherited that same playful passion for standout hairstyles.
During the interview, Dwyane Wade’s little Kaavia surprised everyone by asking Union a question only a daughter would think to ask out loud. She looked at her mom and asked why she was always wearing wigs. It was innocent, curious, and completely adorable in every way. Union smiled and explained, “I like to switch up my look… With wigs, I can do all those different things and play all these different kinds of characters.” But the sweetest surprise came next.
