Dwyane Wade and Gabrielle Union Cover Essence Magazine

The ReadyWriter

Ooh and I know Siohvaughn is pissed!!!!!

Dwyane Wade and Gabrielle Union will grace the cover of the February 2012 issue of ESSENCE magazine. The NBA star met the sultry actress while he was still married to, Siohvaughn Funches. Gabby caught a lot of flack from NBA groupies and others who objected to her home wrecking talents. But the reality of the situation is that the love was gone in Siohvaughn and Dwyane’s marriage by the time Gabby worked her feminine wiles to get him.

On the subject of marriage, Wade said:

“We’re not rushing it. Both of us have been married before, and we understand that if we choose to marry again, we want it to be right. We both took failing at marriage hard. The next time it’s gotta be forever…” — Dwyane Wade

Dwyane Wade’s 8 year marriage to his high school sweetheart Siohvaughn came to an end in 2010 and Gabrielle Union was married for 5 years to Jacksonville Jaguars running back, Chris Howard. Their marriage ended in April of 2006.

  7. As my grandma always says “Can’t take someone that doesn’t want to be taken.” She didn’t go to their home and take him away from Siovaughn, Dwayne left willingly.

      2. BLACK HOLLYWOOD’S FAVORITE COUPLE? Says WHO? I don’t think so.

        Black people get extremely excited about Will and Jada, but this couple is hardly exciting news.

        I know that you like this lady, Angelhair, but she just isn’t all that. She reminds me of a young church lady or a school teacher. Boring.

        She’s a homewrecker to boot. Doesn’t matter what the husband says about his state of affairs. All married men say the same thing. The proper thing for her to have done was to stay away until he was no longer married and fighting with his wife over his children.

  16. Gabby is not a homewrecker folks need to mind their own homes. People aren’t property you can’t take anybody away from anybody people choose who they want to be with. People get divorced everyday nothing new under the sun. His ex was batshyt crazy per the court docs. There are three sides to every story.

No shade but she was fucking around with him when he was married and what’s right is right and what’s wrong is all the way WRONG!! That type of shit would make any *ex* bitter.

  25. I have no comments on their relationship. But it sucks that Essence cannot find a prominent married black couple with no baggage for these so-called “Black Love” covers – but controversy sells so they know what they are doing.

    But WTF is up with the styling? Gabby looks like she is a secret fatty hiding under a tent, that color is horrible and her weave did not need to be “blowing” in the wind. They used way too much photoshop on both of them and that typeface is UGLY.

  33. Well, well, well. As others have said, you can’t keep no man/woman who don’t want to be kept. NOW if they were separated and him and Gabby started dating, you cannot call this woman a homewrecker! Maybe i’m too new school…divorces take too flucking long and people tend to move on with their lives before the divorce is final.

    HOWEVER,let me say this, if she was with this man while the wife was under the impression that their marriage was salvageable, then she’s sheisty. Either way, I like the cover but I know the black community is gonna be “up in arms” about it.

It doesn’t matter what our opinion is regarding their relationship; at the end of the day they are the only two who have to answer for their actions; despite all the negative feedback Alicia & Swiss still got married & are still together. If karma is all that folks say it is, what’s the hostility if-their demise is imminent right?!?!?!
    Leave folks be, what will be will be…so -y’all can call these ladies hoes & jump offs etc a la but these men are the ones who filled y’all head up all these years talking bout men don’t marry hoes, men marry or are in relationships with the hell they want to be and no woman is excluded including hoes- so stop buying & believing everything these men tell u & just know if & when a nicca feel the notion your arse can & will be replaced married or not- me included…. so don’t count on happily ever after & expect happy for now & be prepared for later~ I’m just saying all is fair in love & war

It wouldn’t be anything to see a picture of a black man on the cover with his queen and their child; I understand we are in a new day and age when homewreckers are profiled on the cover of their magazine. That isn’t a story of ‘black love’ and I really am offended by it.

      All I’m saying is that there used to be a STANDARD that was set and that apparently no longer applies.

      A married man (even if he is separated) that flaunts his girlfriend before the divorce petition is even drawn up and submitted is just cruel and doesn’t care about anyone elses feelings but his own. It isn’t right just because everyone else does it.

      I’m just offended that some of us act like we don’t have standards anymore. It seems that whatever is being done this week or whatever attitude is being taken by the majority is ‘ok’. This is all strictly my opinion but it’s sad.
