Dwyane Wade's Ex-Wife Fears He's 'Pressuring' Zaya Into Name And Gender Change For Financial Gain

“I have concerns that (Dwyane) may be pressuring our child to move forward with the name and gender change in order to capitalize on the financial opportunities that he has received from companies,” she said in her legal filing.

Zaya came out as transgender in 2020 at the age of 12. Dwayne’s argument concerning his ex-wife’s petition was acknowledging that he is the legal guardian of their children and has the legal right to make decisions on his daughter’s behalf.

Funch-Wade says during a conversation in April, Dwayne told her “a lot of money had been already made, and that additional money will be made in relation to our child’s name and gender issue.”

“He told me that he intended to make our child very famous due to the name and gender issue and also informed me that there would be endorsements/contracts associated therewith,” she said.

Since Zaya came out she has been working with multiple high-end brands, signing modeling contracts and social media deals.

Dwayne has not responded to the allegations.

Previously while posting here, I disregarded the concerns of the trans community and the LGBT+ community at-large. I'm not from that community and will never be able to fully understand what they experience. What I can tell you is that the right-wing backlash against them has caused me to view them with more sympathy and empathy and understanding. I have since come to regret my previous stance.

I don't think LGBT+ people should be subjected to slander and smears. I don't think they should be unfairly associated with p-word and g-word accusations or insinuations that they broadly support such things. My own father (who was part of the civil rights and anti-war movements in the 1960s) recently commented that a pro-"MAP" banner at a LGBT+ rally would get the loudest cheers from the crowd. I feel that is not only highly inaccurate, it is outright bigotry and prejudice.

I was deeply disturbed when right-wing extremists called in bomb threats against my former employer based on lies and distortions from right-wing influencers. I've decided that I'm going to start donating to trans and LGBT+ causes in order to help support them when they need it the most. I don't expect most of y'all to understand or agree with me. But I find it imperative as an American to strongly support the civil rights and liberties of ALL Americans in these troubling times. Godspeed to us all...

I'm sure they thank you for that pack of cigarettes.
