Happy third wedding anniversary, Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade!
The fashionable and fun-loving pair tied the knot on Aug. 30, 2014, in a lavish Miami ceremony and the cuteness hasn’t worn off a day since.
“Every day, I think there’s no way I could love you any more than I did the day before, but I fall deeper in love with you each morning,” Union wrote on Instagram Wednesday of her husband of three years. “Thank you for your belief that we were both capable of evolution and committing to be your best self for our family.”
“We live life by OUR own rules and I love that about US,” Wade wrote of his wife on Instagram. “So here’s to another 57 years of happiness!!!”

Still independent.
We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.
Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.
The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.
We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.
If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
