- Dwayne Wade’s ex-wife Siohvaughn Funches-Wade sought a court order to block the legal transition of their 15-year-old transgender-identified child, Zaya Wade.
- In a statement posted to Instragram, Wade slammed his ex-wife’s “attempt to fight Zaya’s identity” and “drag my name through the mud.”
- He then further slammed Funches-Wade as an “absent parent” who doesn’t make any attempt to be in Zaya’s life, and claimed the filing as an attempt to “center herself.”
