NBA star Dwyane Wade, 26, has finally spoken out about his impending divorce from wife Siohvaughn, 27.
The former Siohvaughn Funches was Wade’s high school sweetheart and the only serious girlfriend he ever had — until now. Wade and Siohvaughn have two sons: Zaire Blessing Dwyane Wade, 6, and Zion Malachi Airamis Wade, 1.
Siohvaughn found out the hard way that it’s hard for a brotha to stay faithful to his wife while on the road with so many groupies lurking in the cut waiting for that team bus to pull up to the hotel.
Since divorce proceedings were filed last year, Wade has been linked to tennis star Serena Williams, reality show star Vanessa Simmons and (who else?) Gabrielle Union:
“I keep my personal life my personal life. You try to keep it as private as you can. When things leak out, it’s not always the truth. Some is. All you can do is continue being who you are. A lot of things have come out about me, and people are going to think what they want to think. But at the end of the day, no one knows what’s happened in my life to get to the point where me and my wife, our family, not being together.
When the time comes, I will make one statement and that’s it. Like anyone else, I want my privacy respected. Let people say what they want to say about me. I hear it. I get mad about it. But it doesn’t get me down. It adds fuel to the fire.” (Source)
