• NBA superstar Dwayne Wade’s ex-wife Siohvaughn Funches-Wade has filed paperwork to stop the couple’s trans-identified child from legally changing their name and gender before age 18.
• Funches-Wade claims Wade is pressuring 15-year-old Zaya Wade to transition for monetary gain, as the child has already secured lucrative sponsorship deals with brands like Tiffany.
•  In the filing, Funches-Wade says she fears Dwayne Wade is “pressuring our child to move forward with the name and gender change in order to capitalize on the financial opportunities that he has received from companies.”
