Have an interesting take?

Dwyane and Gabrielle met back in 2007 at a Super Bowl party, but it wasn’t love at first sight. Both of them were in the middle of tough personal situations. Gabrielle had just gone through a divorce from her first husband, former NFL player Chris Howard, while Dwyane was still married to his high school sweetheart, Siohvaughn Funches.

Despite all that, they took their time, turning what began as a friendship into something much deeper. Dwyane and Gabrielle didn’t start officially dating until 2009, following Wade’s 2010 divorce from Funches. Their relationship became public, and like every other power couple, they had their struggles. In 2013, they faced some serious bumps in the road, but fortunately, they worked it out.

Dwyane and Gabrielle’s journey is one for the books. After going through their own personal struggles, they came out stronger and made it official by tying the knot in 2014. Their love only grew from there, and after four years of marriage, they decided to expand their family. And then Kaavia James, their beautiful daughter, came into their lives via surrogacy.
