The information on Union and Wade's finances was revealed by Union, 50, in an interview with Bloomberg Originals that aired on May 8th. Since we split everything 50/50 in this household, it's strange to suggest that I'm the head of the household, she said.
Union added that she and Wade both have "other households that each of [them] have to support," which she claimed puts pressure on her to continue working.
You always have this gorilla on your back saying, "You better work, b*** you better work. You're planning to sleep in, huh? Someone might not eat, you know," she said. I'm trying to let go of that, but it's difficult.
She also talked about how worried she is about her finances because she has so many "responsibilities" that cost money.
"I become anxious, thinking, 'Oh my God, that movie didn't start. What does that mean, then? Will I have enough to keep everyone waiting?' she said. "I'm trying to find peace in the journey, not using my anxiety and scarcity mindset to be my engine, which is hard," the speaker said. "Everyone says, "It's coming, calm down.
Kaavia, the actor's four-year-old daughter, is Wade's child. She also has two stepchildren, Zaire, 21, and Zaya, 15, who were born to the former basketball player and his ex-wife Siohvaughn Funches. Wade and Aja Metoyer are also parents to Xavier, a nine-year-old boy.
Many followers backed Union's decision to split the bills with her husband on social media.
Gabrielle Union is a powerful woman. sharing expenses equally while working hard to protect her future. Work ethic on spot," one Twitter user commented in reference to a popular segment of Union's interview that the Black Millionaire podcast had posted.
However, given Wade's great basketball career, a lot of people were taken aback by the couple's decision to split up their family.
Gabrielle Union claimed to split time equally with her spouse. 50/50 with a former NBA player? "OH BABY H*** NAAAH," commented one user.
Others questioned the choice to reveal the information, and several criticised Union for initially disclosing the couple's financial details.
One user commented, "I wish Gabrielle Union would quit exposing her business," and another added, "I was just chatting to a buddy about celebs who talk too much. People must take a cue from the reserved celebrities. What is she interviewing for that she is promoting?
In the midst of the criticism, several individuals also defended her. One supporter thought it was "bizarre" that Union's "passing comment" had drawn attention out of all the other subjects she covered in her interview.
Wade also discussed his family's dynamics earlier this month while disclosing that the family's choice to leave Florida was influenced by the state's anti-LGBT laws during an appearance on Headliners with Rachel Nichols. When asked about state lawmakers who are supporters of him but also back the anti-LGBT+ legislation, he initially commented on the action.
He said, "That's another reason why I don't reside in that state." "I believe that many people are unaware of that. Not just for myself, but also for my family, I must make decisions. It goes without saying that taxes are high. Wade County is a wonderful thing. However, neither my family nor I would be welcomed or at ease there. That being said, one of the reasons I don't reside there is this.
Zaya, the athlete's daughter, came out as transgender in 2020, and Wade and Union have been vocal supporters of her.
