Dwyane Wade Baby: Love Child Xavier's Half Siblings Have Famous Father, Damon Wayans Jr.
Dwyane Wade's new baby boy is siblings with two other children who have a famous father, actor Damon Wayans Jr.
After TMZ acquired the birth certificate they confirmed the baby's name as Xavier Zechariah Wade. Xavier's mother was identified as 31-year-old Aja Metoyer, who also has two daughters with Wayans Jr.
"My concern are my daughters and that they don't get hurt in any of this," he told TMZ, adding that the girls "love their little brother."
Wade had been dating actress Gabrielle Union since 2009, but they temporarily split up when they felt they grew apart from each other. This is when Wade claims the baby was conceived.
"I had a time, a part in our break, in our pain and our hurt, a blessing came out of it in my life, having a son that was born healthy," said the 31-year-old Miami Heat athlete, during a news conference Monday in Denver.
Wade has since gotten engaged to Union, and the two seemingly talked their way through any problems concerning this "love child."
"I've always tried to show my importance in my kids' lives and it doesn't change now," said the three time NBA World Champion of the Miami Heat, according to the Sun Sentinel. "So, I, my lady and my family have continued to move forward, and I think that's evident with the ring and the proposal that I gave her."
The NBA player has two sons, Zaire and Zion Wade from his previous marriage to Siohvaughn Funches. The former couple separated in 2007. Their divorce was completed in 2010.
