Gabrielle Union Shares Emotional Tribute After Heartbreaking Family Loss
April 06, 2026


Ever since she welcomed her first child and daughter, Kaavia James with her husband, Dwyane Wade, actress, Gabrielle Union has been walking on sunshine and sharing her happiness with the world.
Gabrielle Union, at the age of 46, got to experience what it meant to be a mother when she welcomed her daughter, Kaavia James to the world through surrogacy.
Since then, the actress seizes every opportunity to share pictures of her little girl who she dubbed "Shady Baby" with the world through social media.
No one following the "Deliver Us from Eva" star, can fault her happiness, and she once again took to Instagram to show her followers how happy she is.
The mother-of-one shared a photo of her husband, Dwyane Wade, and their little girl. The father-daughter duo stood looking over some flowers; Wade wore a black T-shirt while his little girl had on a onesie with elephant design.
Union didn't write much for the caption, but she let her followers know how joyful she felt with the word "Bursts," which was preceded by a heart-shape emoji.
Her fans could not get enough of the look. Some referred to the duo as twins, while others wrote that the former NBA star looks like his daughter and not the other way around.
This statement comes from the fact that the little girl is the replica of her father. One fan wrote, "They have the same face."
Union also agrees with this assessment. She told "People" that Kaavia looks just like her dad, but the "Being Mary Jane" actress believes her daughter's "Incredible personality" comes from her.
Mother and daughter also have a close bond. They recently had a photo shoot to promote Union's "Kaavia James Collection" by her New York and Company line.
The collection features clothes for babies and mothers and cost between $14.95 to $44.95. It also has onesies and T-shirts with the inscription "Dream" and "#ShadyBaby."
Earlier in April, mother and daughter were at the courtside to support Wade at his final game for Miami Heat. He retired after sixteen years in the NBA and scored thirty points in 34 minutes.
According to "People," the father-of-four plans to spend all his time with his baby girl, and he said during an appearance on "Good Morning America" that he always wanted to have a daughter.
Wade added God didn't give them one until recently, and it's so fitting that he got to carry her while he was still playing, referring to carrying her while they wore matching outfits after his final game.
Union and her husband are so happy with their little girl and are giving her all their love and attention.
