Media Take Out says it has confirmed from two sources that actress Gabrielle Union and her husband NBA star Dwyane Wade are expecting their first child. But a source close to the couple tells Gossip Cop it's "not true" the actress is currently expecting a baby. Neither Union, 42, nor Wade, 32, were apparently not directly asked by either of the celebrity news and gossip sites.
Union and Wade were just married August 30 after dating on and off for over a year. The couple are raising Zaire and Zion, Wade's sons from a previous marriage, and Dahveon, his nephew from sister Deanna. Whether or not Union's already pregnant, Wade, it seems, is already more than ready, willing and able to accept the full responsibilities of parenthood. He even titled his recently published memoir "A Father First [How My Life Became Bigger Than Basketball]." In one passage in his memoir, Wade writes: "Given my history and the examples set for me, my sense of responsibility as a parent and spouse was already well developed." Despite all the accolades he gets from being an NBA superstar, he says he is a father first to his children.
Both Union and Wade are actively involved in philanthropic causes. Union is a proud supporter of the planned parenthood movement. Wade has his own Wade's World Foundation (WWF) which provides support to community-based organizations that promote education, health and social skills for children in at-risk situations. Notably, the WWF motto is "Every Child Deserves A Shot."
The celebrity couple just this Thursday were at Santa's Enchanted Forest 3 Under the Tree event in Miami to spread the holidays' cheers on behalf of WWF. Earlier that day, Wade even read the story of "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" before some Liberty City Elementary School students at the Miami Children's Museum.
