Dwyane Wade’s 12 year old daughter Zaya Wade made international news, when the NBA baller announced that Zaya (formerly Zion) was transgender and planned on transitioning from male to female.
Well, Dwyane appears to be coming along for at least a portion of the transition. The father and daughter now have matching hair.
Zaya’s hair is hot pink, and Dwyane’s is fire red.
Zaya, who is 12 is the daughter of former National Basketball Association player Dwyane Wade and Siohvaughn Funches.
After her parents divorced in 2007, her father married actress Gabrielle Union in 2014. She has an older brother, Zaire, and two younger siblings, Xavier and Kaavia.
She currently attends Sierra Canyon School where she is a member of the cheerleading squad. Wade came out as gay to her family at the age of 11, and came out publicly in 2019 after attending an LBGT community parade with her family.
She later came out both to her family and the public as a straight, transgender girl. She is supported by her family in her decision to come out publicly. Wade has been noted for her androgynous fashion style and courage.
