Dwyane Wade speaks about his 12-year-old child coming out as transgender in an interview on TheEllenShow
“What’s the point in being on this Earth if you’re gonna try to be someone you’re not,” Zaya said in the video, which shows her and her father riding in a golf cart. “It’s like you’re not even living as yourself, which is like the dumbest concept to me. Just be true and don’t really care what the ‘stereotypical way’ of being you is. ... I think you push through and you be the best you.”
Last spring, Zaya marched at Miami Beach Pride with Union and older brother Zaire. Wade was playing with the Miami Heat at the time and was unable to attend, but he showed his support on social media. Dwayne Wade and Gabby Union supporting young Zion at Miami Pride is so beautiful, I could cry. I can’t imagine having had this type of support as a kid . Amazing example of living in and showing unconditional love 💕
