Gabrielle revealed that she would be “unlocking the secret soon,” indicating she’ll be sharing the products and tools she uses to achieve her amazing look. 

Aside from opting for to display their natural beauty, the Wade family has been enjoying their time in quarantine. Union recently shared a short video of Kaa learning how to swim.

Another video, from last week, showed Kaa showing off her dance moves to “Baila Reggaeton” by Carlos Arroyo. 

We’re extremely happy for the Wade family making the best out of this global pandemic.

Van Jones Applauds Dwyane Wade’s Support Of Daughter Zaya

Van Jones comments on Dwyane Wade's support of daughter Zaya.

Last week, Dwyane Wade and Gabrielle Union were a focal point following their public revelation and support of their transgender preteen Zaya.

"Meet Zaya," Union penned in a tweet that accompanied a clip of the 12-year-old having an insightful conversation with her father. "She's compassionate, loving, whip smart and we are so proud of her. It’s Ok to listen to, love & respect your children exactly as they are. Love and light good people."

In a recent chat with TMZ, political commentator and pundit Van Jones offered a reflection on the significance of Wade's public support of his daughter, citing the move as a good example for parents faced with similar circumstances.

"It's powerful. It's important," Jones said. "When you have somebody of his stature saying 'love is love, my kid is my kid,' it gives other parents the permission structure to do the same thing. That's how you stop the suicides, and stop the self-hatred, and stop the bullying when you do what he did."

Back in June, Dwayne Wade expressed the need to support one's children unconditionally after coming under fire for attending a Pride Month parade with his daughter.

“I’m doing what every parent has to do. Once you bring kids into this world, you become unselfish," He told Variety. "It’s my job to be their role model, to be their voice in my kids’ lives, to let them know you can conquer the world. So go and be your amazing self, and we’re going to sit back and just love you.”
