Talented and successful Hollywood actress Gabrielle Union is covering the April 16th edition of JET Magazine. In the issue, Union reveals for the first time, in a story title “Crazy Messy Love,” that she didn’t rebut the homewrecking rumors and lawsuit for the sake of the kids. She also speaks about being bullied by fans, and her boyfriend, NBA player Dwayne Wade. Below are some excerpts:
On why she didn’t publicly defend her reputation against rumors she cheated with Dwyane while he was married
“The kids. For the people that hire me, it’s a non issue. But at the end of the day, Dwyane’s kids are going to be the ones who really suffer. They’re 10 and 4 and a half. They’re old enough to understand the mean things that strangers can say.”
On feeling bullied by her fans who believed she was “the other woman”
“I think people mistook me taking the high road as an admission of guilt. Dwyane and I made a decision very early to not react to the negativity. And I kept feeling like the truth would come out. The problem is, when it did, nobody cared. What I discovered on social media is that people don’t read the entire story.”
On handling Siohvaughn’s lawsuits alleging Gabby as a homewrecker and detrimental to her kids
“I fought it. My life is just too easy to track. So, we were submitting plenty of proof for the times she said I was in Miami. So, it was like, obviously you’re not telling the truth.
On her current relationship with Siovaughn
“I’ve never had one. I wasn’t involved then-because I wasn’t involved with their marriage -and I don’t have one now.”
On contemplating breaking up with Dwayne because of the divorce turmoil
I did a lot of talking with girlfriends and sorting through my feelings about the madness. This kind of love is a gift. It’s so consistent. There’s no way that I would trade it for people who refuse to simply acknowledge the truth.
