NBA legend Dwyane Wade recently disclosed that he once actively sought to end his relationship with actress Gabrielle Union.

The couple had taken a break from their relationship in 2013. During this separation, Wade fathered a child with another woman. Wade had believed their relationship was over, but Union later sought to rekindle their romance.
Despite Wade's apparent desire to end things, he and Union eventually reconciled and married in 2014. However, the revelation of Wade's child caused Union significant pain. In a 2021 essay for TIME, she described feeling "humiliated" by the situation and stated she would advise her younger self to have ended the relationship then.
