Gabrielle Union and Dwayne Wade
The ‘Bring It On’ star, 51, and the 42-year old former NBA player broke it off after a few months due to her busy filming schedule after meeting in early 2007, got back together in 2010, staying together amid his divorce from Siohvaughn Funches but found a way to make it work and headed down the aisle in 2014 and welcomed daughter Kaavia, four, in 2018.
Gabrielle - who is stepmother to his two kids Zaya, 17, and Zaire, 22 - told Glamour: "Over the summer [while we were broken up], I reassessed priorities. I'd always wanted an awesome career with back-to-back projects, but I realized I wasn't willing to sacrifice my relationship for it. Moving forward, I decided my work schedule has to make sense for our family. Bottom line: If an issue's a deal breaker, it's a deal breaker. If your relationship isn't something you're willing to give up and you can compromise, do so."
