Dwyane Wade Divorce From Siohvaughn Wade Gets Ugly

Dwyane Wade of the Miami Heat finds himself in the middle of a rather ugly divorce case from his ex-wife, Siovaughn Wade. One of Siovaughn's many accusations is that Dwyane Wade gave her an STD.

According to court papers, Dwyane Wade's wife is accusing the Miami Heat star of abandoning his children, having extramarital affairs, and infecting her with a sexually transmitted disease. She says that she wants Wade to name of ''all of his sexual partners'' during their marriage.

Ironically,Wade was named a ''Father of the Year'' by the National Father's Day Committee back in 2007. Those days seem long gone, however. Siovaughn Wade claims that Dwyane hasn't seen his sons Zion and Zaire in months.

His ''failure to spend time with them . . . has resulted in the children at times being afraid of him; in fact, Zion . . . does not recognize or know Dwyane.'' She wants sole custody, and support.

She also says she has suffered ''grievous physical, emotional and mental injury'' from the STD, diagnosed in the fall of '07. (The infection is not HIV or a ''killer thing,'' sources say.) Dwyane and his ''paramour or paramours'' are liable, she alleges.

Wade has been romantically linked with actress Gabrielle Union.

I believe that this is sad. If Siovaughn was a real woman, she would not relay the details of her marriage or health condition to the public. I know that she is upset and feels scorned, but this is the wrong way to go about it. Who is to say that she was not the one who committed infidelity and contracted whatever she has from her partner? There are two sides to every story. I respect Dwayne Wade for maintaining respect for his ex-wife and not defaming her charector in retaliation.

This is not some simple matter that is going to be erased after the divorce proceedings are completed. Siovaughn has to be able to go home every day and look her children in the eyes. And everytime she does, she will regret how immature she acted. She needs to realize that she is a mother over anything else.

In conclusion, I do have somethings to ask Gabrielle Union: Aren't you tired of being the other woman? Weren't you the reason why Denzel Washington and his wife seperated? How do you think that this makes you look as a black woman? You are a good actor, with such a poor charector. When this is all said and done, Dwyane Wade will have moved onto the next one and you still be left on the outside looking in.

Mrs. Wade is not airing her dirty laundry in public. This is information that was included in divorce papers. If any of this is true, he deserves whatever he gets. It is time for black to cut this mess out and put away childish things. It is not unreasonable to expect...to even demand that your husband be faithful, and for you to try to blame her for shining light on who he truly is...that my dear is totally unreasonable.

How in the world do you think that Siovaughn is te immature one. D-Wade is the one is immature and gross. How dare he go out and screw around and bring home a DISEASE to his wife, the mother of his children. That's ridiculous. He is very triffling. The least he could have done is worn protection. That's just plain disrespect for his wife. She should put is nasty butt on blast every time she gets a chance.

How dare you try to turn this around on her. You should be ashamed of yourself!

I am a big Dwayne Wade fan!!! I think that this story is just a shame and a tragedy. If he did cheat on his wife and gave her an STD then that is just horrible and she should dog him. If you can bring an STD home ot oyur wife and still hold your head up high, then you are full of S@@t. He is not innocent in this either he is out taking picture with that whore Gabrielle Union ( she probably gave him the STD) then he should be talked about and exposed. I mean how many marriages has Gabrielle Union destroyed, Jason Kidd, P Diddy and his thing with Kim, the list goes on. All she wants is support for her daughter, I guess the days are getting desperate she is even posing nude. I mean I don't blame if it is to feed her, since she has got a dumba@@ like DWADE.I feel if you cheat then you get what you get, has he not figured it out the injury, no playoffs, what more does he need. I guess he did look up to Shaq and as a result he is now divorced. So I guess Dwayne Wade is another guy who is a "camera man" look good for the cameras but a devil in the background. I am just appalled at the person he turned out to be.

my apologies. i don't respond to ingrates who try to assume or possess a name through trying to insult people on line. this was a healthy discussion between people regarding this matter up until d...however it is pronounced decided to apply his child like demenoir to the mix by calling people retarded. i am sorry; i believed this to be a website for adults. i must have missed the icon that reads "For children only".
