The pair have been in a relationship for years now and indicated that marriage was in the plans for quite a time already. Their Christmas cards had return address stickers with “Wade-Union Family” and messages of “Happy Holidays from the Wade-Union Family” with pictures of Wade and Union plus Wade’s two sons and a nephew.
Aside from the social media posts, no official formal statements have been released from both camps and no date has been announced. Both Wade and Union will be in their second marriage.
Wade was officially divorced from his high school girlfriend Siohvaughn Funches in 2010 after a lengthy court battle. Wade was granted sole custody of sons 11-year-old Zaire Blessing Dwyane and 6-year-old Zion Malachi Airamis in 2011.
Union was an all-star point guard in high school and also played soccer and track and field. She starred in the movies “Bring It On” in 2000 and “Bad Boys II” in 2003; and CBS drama series “City of Angels” among others.
