Union shared a short video clip of herself dancing to “Laffy Taffy” from Atlanta rap group D4L. The camera pans over around the room and zooms into Wade’s unphased face at the end. Using the laughing and the black heart emojis, Union wrote in the caption, “My valentine. Loving you.”

Fans had nothing but laughs for the happy couple, including a handful of Instagram users who noticed Wade look tired or unbothered by his wife’s dance moves.

“LMAOOO his face,” wrote one user, while another said, “Wade looking like save me please.” Another said, “Dwyane so unbothered.. go to sleep and let Gabby light shine get it, sis.” A third asked, “Is he over it? It certainly looks like it right here.”

In response to others, Wade blamed his unphased look on needing to hit the sheets, writing, “My 40-year-old a– was ready for [bed].”

Many pointed out where Union and Wade’s 3-year-old daughter, Kaavia James, gets her facial expressions from, including one who called Wade “Kaavia’s doppelganger.”

Another said, “Lol, aww! THAT’S where “shady baby” gets her side-eye from!”

In addition to the commentary about the Union-Wade family, others mentioned their love for old-school music. One wrote, “Love That’s the jam.” Another added, “Yall make my day, please keep posting.”

Wade and Union have been married since 2014. The duo welcomed Kaavia James Union Wade in 2018 via surrogacy after years of Union dealing with infertility. They co-parent Wade’s children from previous relationships: Zaire Wade, 19, 14-year-old Zaya Wade and 8-year-old Xavier.

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.
