It seems like Miami Heat legend Dwyane Wade and his wife/Hollywood actress Gabrielle Union-Wade is not done slaying yet. On February 25, Wade and Union were honored with the President’s Award for activism. Following their powerful speech in support of the LGBTQ+ community, both Wade and Union garnered a huge amount of positive reactions from fans. It has only been a few days since the couple attended the NAACP Image Awards looking absolutely gorgeous and they are all ready to stun fans again.

Other than their jaw-dropping outfits, Union and Wade each managed to garner attention through their moving speech. The couple dedicated their awards to Wade’s 15-year-old daughter Zaya Wade who came out as transgender in 2020. The high-profile affair was attended by several influential figures from their respective fields who have made an impact in changing the society for better.

Union completed the look with a diamond necklace from Mouawad and black heels. Wade, on the other hand, wore a gray pin-stripped suit from Gucci over a white turtleneck shirt. The 13x NBA All-Star finished his look with a gold watch from Cartier and black shoes.
