Dwyane Wade explains why he once tried to break up with Gabrielle Union

Although Wade and Union are a happy couple now, it was not always like that. The reason was that during his break-up with Union in 2013, Wade had a son with Aja Metoyer, and when the couple got back together, Wade had to tell Union about his son.

The three-time NBA champion revealed the struggles he had to go through at the time and how hard it was for him to tell Union about that. To avoid it, he even tried to break up with her, but the famous actor did not wish to split with him.

"You know that this is going to hurt someone that you've been building a relationship with and a life with. You got a lot on your mind. You're keeping something from people you love, and it’s heavy. At night, when it gets quiet, when it’s just you and your thoughts, them thoughts is loud," Dwyane Wade said in a recent interview with former NFL champion and now TV analyst Shannon Sharpe, via USA Today.
"I tried to pussyfoot around it. I tried to break up with her. 'Hey, things have been bad lately. Hey, we've been having a little distance in our relationship.' I tried all that. She kept showing up," Wade added.

Wade also explained how the couple has been working to move past their issues and maintain a steady relationship over the years, despite the struggles.

"It hasn't been perfect. It will never be perfect, but that was nine years ago. We go to therapy. We've been to therapy. We've had shouts about it. We've had regular conversations about it, and so it's going to continue to be something that I have to work at and work on. It doesn't go away because years come or because I say, 'Sorry,'" Wade told Sharpe.
