MIAMI (CBSMiami) – Retired Heat star Dwyane Wade is firing back at critics who took aim at his 12-year-old son. Wade is making it clear he is comfortable with his son’s sexuality, even if others are not.
“You want to talk about strength and courage, my 12-year-old has way more than I have,” he said.
Wade went on the Showtime podcast “ALL THE SMOKE” hosted by former NBA players Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson to talk openly about his 12-year-old son Zion and the backlash from a recent family photo.
When Wade’s wife Gabrielle Union posted a family picture on Instagram, critics took aim at Zion’s appearance, which included acrylic nails and a crop top.
