‘You Guys Are So Cute I Can’t Stand It’: Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade Enjoy a Date Night Full of Antics

Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade enjoyed a nice date night full of antics. The “Bring It On” alum uploaded three different photos that showed her and her boo posing together as she rocked a salmon mini dress to go along with Dwyane’s green slacks, white long-sleeved shirt and beige vest. 


“Memaw & Pawpaw late night antics,” Union captioned the series of pics.

Wade also captured Union’s beautiful outfit as he uploaded a video of her singing onto his Instagram Story. 

“This woman is so f—-g beautiful [yellow heart emoji] [leg emoji],” he captioned his Story. 

Fans of the couple quickly ran to the comment section and gushed over the two. 

“Muva and Fava [heart eyes].” 

“My favorite couple!”

“You guys are so cute I can’t stand it.” 

In a 2020 interview with People magazine Wade explained the first time they officially met in 2007. 

“We did a party together, Super Bowl weekend we met real quickly and she was like ‘Hey, if you guys [Wade’s crew] want to come hang with us with me back here in our section and we went back there. We just had a regular conversation in the middle of a party.” 

Although Union and Wade hosted a party together, a flame of love didn’t spark until 2010. 

As the interview progressed Union confessed they were both interested in “testing out the water” with one another in order to see if their connection was sincere. She explained a deal they had decided to accomplish before making things official. 

“We’re both divorced like we’re both really kind of wanting to test the waters so we decided to not speak to each other for a week,” she explained. 

Bouncing off of her words, Wade added, “If we find ourselves back to each other then it’s we’re meant to get back to each other.” 

By the end of the week, neither Wade nor Union could resist their undeniable chemistry, which prompted them to give their relationship a try.

Although their relationship went through trials and tribulations, the two always found their way back to each other. They will soon be celebrating their eighth wedding anniversary on Aug. 30. 

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

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 in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones 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.
