Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade are opening up about raising 13-year-old daughter Zaya, who recently came out as transgender.
The family spoke out in an interview with People. “When I look at Zaya, I get hope. Because I’m like, okay, we raised [our kids] to be authentic,” Dwyane said. “I come from a locker room of a macho, male-dominant sport.
But I started learning and I started to watch her. And from then on we started having more conversations.” “I didn’t have many resources, so I just reached out to everyone I knew from social media.
Everyone responded with love, resources and information,” Gabrielle said of Zaya coming out. “We weren’t coming into it like it’s got to be our way.
