Wow! Talk about a grown up, this woman kept it real without bashing and she also took responsibility for her own shortcomings. Impressive.

i would have left those kids with their father... there is no way i oculd take being cheated on and just left to carry the burden of childcare all by myself while you move on no scratches? she is a strong woman..

Those groupies came into play, and seems like she met someone too, when she was hanging out all night. I remember someone telling me years back from the beginning that Shaujn was so crazy jealous of Dwayne and she started trying to pull a Doug-Christie-wife chokehold on him and things went crazy from there. Like her putting out there Dwayne gave her some STD & he went thru so many groupies. But, remember Dwayne filed first for divorce.

There's always more than one side to every story. She can sit there and say whatever she wants but the truth is when someone is hurt their stories usually get very one-sided. None of us on this blog knows them personally so we have no clue what went wrong.

it aint the money..its the fame that changes you and tryna live up to a image instead of saying fuck people and doing what you kn ow is the right thing to do..its sad that these women follow these men into success from when they aint have a dime and then as soon as they get some money they leave the woman who really gives a damn about them.my advice is find a man who already has what he want in life and dont waste time on a broke man cause ull always come up short

Anonymous said...

agreed with 11:27. I liked my ex alot more when he was broke. When money came in the picture, so did hoes, popularity, and his ego. Now I have moved on for the sake of my little girl happiness. It was best for her to have two parents that love her and be apart than to stay and have constant arguments in front of her. Besides it's best to be a role model saying that you can find a good man that loves you instead of settling for something that makes you unhappy because you have a child together.

11:22 I DISAGREE,,,I KNEW WHAT WENT WRONG BECAUSE I AM AN X-NBA WIFE,,,ITS THE SAME THING THAT ALWAYS GOES WORNG WITH A LOT OF THEM,,THI SAINT NO MYSTERY,SHE TOLD YOU EXACTLY WHAT WENT WRONG,,THE FAME,,THE WOMEN ,,THE SPOTLIGHT,,THE BEING ABLE TO DO WHAT EVER THE FUCK YOU WANT,,THATS COOL WHEN YOU DON'T BRING OTHER INNOCENT BLACK MEN INTO THE FRAY,,IE YOUR CHILDREN,,YOUR SONS.
TO WALK LIKE THEY DO NOT EVEN EXIST,,TO HAVE THEM CALLING FAMILY CRYING BECASUE THEIR FATHER IS NOT AROUND. THEY GO TO SCHOOLS WHERE EVERY OTHER KID HAS THIER DADDIES AT EVERY BASKETBALL GAME AND PRACTICE,,AT EVERY SCHOOL FAMILY FUNCTION.SO IT HURTS THEM EVEN MORE.IT BE DIFFERENT IF THEY WAS BACK ON THE SOUTHSIDE WHERE IT DON'T MATTER BECAUSE OTHER KIDS DADDIES AINT AROUND EITHER,,PLEASE I COULD GO ON.
BUT GUESS WHAT?? AFTER A BUSTED KNEE AND AFTER HE COULD NOT COMMENTATE (COULD NOT GET THAT EBONICS OUT HIS MOUTH GOOD ENUFF) AND NOW HE GOTTA GET A JOB LIKE THE REST OF US ,,COACHING OTHER PEOPLES SONS,,,IT KICKS HIM DEEP IN HIS BALLS TO SEE WHAT HE LOST WITH HIS OWN SONS!
AND THATS MY STORY

She took the high road by not trashing him and remained dignified while doing so.

Sorry 11:47...but a child losing their father (whether he broke or not) is still F***ed up!! That child (or children's) pain should not be minimized just because their father is broke or is not famous. You are no different than any other single mother out here who has the same hopes, dreams, and aspirations when she has a supposed man's child who decides he can't and won't be a man. It's still f***ed up that many of our children are missing their fathers because these men are SELFISH!!! Your story ain't no different than mine....Peace!!

Anonymous said...

I agree with some of what 11:27 said. It's sad that these women follow men into the man's success (whether it's sports, entertainment, politics) and these women have not either found themselves personally and know completely who they are, or they haven't found success for themselves in one way or another. I commend her though for being as honest as she could while not throwing anyone under the bus out of bitterness and cynicism.

whoa at the chick above that suggests she need to go find a "father" for her kids... uummm, they have a father genius. and guess what? she picked him! if she wants to go find a man then fine... but, dont suggest that every woman who picked a loser for a baby daddy needs to run out and put her kids on some other man. you chicks kill me with that sh*t

ms_mac said...

I was so impressed with the way she came off in that interview. No one mentioned this but it's apparent this woman wasn't trying to ride Wade's coattails because not only did she go to college BEFORE him, she eventually got her degree! She's well-spoken and I can respect that. I'm sure she has her own demons and she's probably done some shady shit too but the perception that she has a lot of class went a long way with me. Some of these baller wives need to take a page from her book and learn a little something. BTW, Jason Kidd's wife nose is so ugly to me. She looked so much better before she got knifed up.

11:47WHERE DO YOU SEE ME SAYING THERE IS A DIFFERENCE OF THE FATHER BEING ABSENT,,,THE ABSENTEE-NESS OF IT IS EQUAL I AM TALKING ABOUT THE EFFECTS BASED ON THEIR ENVIRONEMENT AND THIER PEERS.TO BE AROUND KIDS WHO DONT HAVE THEIR FATHER-AGREED DADDY IS NOT THERE,,,BUT TO PUT A CHILD WITH OUT A FATHER AROUND THOSE WHO DO,,,CUTS HARDER EVERY DAY BECAUSE THEY SEE WHAT THEY ARE MISSING-SORRY BUT I KNOW WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT,,,AND FOR THE DUMB FUCK WHO SAID THE KIDS HAVE A FATHER-genuis,,NO THEY DON'T AND FUCK YOUR DUMBASS RIGHT BACK,,,THEY HAVE SOMEONE WHO BROUGHt THEM IN THIS WORLD,,,A SPERM DONOR UNTIL THEY DECIDE WHEN THE LIGHTS GO OUT THEY WANT TO BE DADDY AGAIN-GET DA FUCK ON,,,

Anonymous said...

@12:47 you implied that there was a difference when you stated that a child from the "southside" who does not have a father present, but might not feel the effects because the majority of the children in that environment have absent fathers...thus the difference between your children(whose father is absent,presently) who are around other children whom still have their father's presence. I felt that your comment generalized that the effects would be less because maybe absentee fathers are the norm on the "southside"...I was merely stating that absentee fathers...whether they had once been a presence or not is still difficult for all children...I know what I am talking about as well....I had an absent father and my youngest childs father is not around...all I'm saying is it's not about the money...it's the character of that man...Peace!!

Anonymous said...

All jokes...she bought tears to my eyes!!! Because I know the pain and devestation and disappointment she went through...marrying your childhood sweetheart...and love was so brand new...we took the vow of man and wife...forever...for life...


SIGH!!!

That was a beautiful testimony!!!

@ 11:47AM (Ms ex-NBA wife)

Of course it is easier for the neighbourhood super or even dentist to find the time to attend their kids every ball game. If that is your greatest priority, feel free to give up that big mansion and black card (and the grueling NBA travel, training and playing schedule that goes with it) and move in with the garbage man or even the unemployed dude with all of the free time to spend with kids.

I read the comments BEFORE watching the video and must confess that I was sorely UNDERWHELMED by it.

Anonymous said...

D Wade wrong if he leave his son hanging like that. But I can see him BROKE like most of the bball players in 5-7 years. He already being sued.

Bee Gee said...

The nigga was smashin' Starr Jones. Somethin' is wrong with his ass anyway, ha. This video just tells her version of the story though - keep that in mind. She basically says that they both fucked up in their own way. They both changed and she became a Stepford Wife. She didn't put it all on him and she underlined that the real victim is baby boy.

Gotta admit, I love when they have shows on athlete wives, but put broads on the show that were never married to a baller. (i.e. homegirl Richard Jefferson hit the eject button on)

Anonymous said...

Gabrielle Union is a trifling whore. Never liked her and after seeing this, I dislike her even more. D Wade is a loser and to leave your children for a piece of used p**** is beyond trifling. Sivoughn Wade is well spoken and I'm glad she is moving on.

7:08 DO YOU EVEN KNOW A NBA PLAYER SCHEDULE,,THEY OFF MORE THAN THEY ARE ON.WHAT YOU NEED TO DO IS TELL THESE DUDES DON'T GET MARRIED AND HAVE CHILDREN IF YOU PLAN ON WALKING ON YOUR KIDS FOR THE NEXT PIECE OF AZZ.
IT DONT TAKE A ROCKET SCIENTITST OR A GARBAGE MAN TO FIGURE THAT OUT!
AND THATS MRS AGAIN TO YOU

Gabby comes off as having class. How could she date a man like that? Makes a person wonder?

Dwade played himself when he let this queen get away...

Oh please, have you guys forgot about all the drama this Szeujuan chick did to Dwayne when he no longer wanted her? Take a trip down memory media lane and read. If she was so unhappy, why didnt she file first for divorce. Its two sides to every story, and Dwayne is taking the high-road by keeping his mouth shutt.

Anonymous said...

There are three sides to every story, Dwayne's and Siovaughn's and the truth.

Bee Gee said...

6:59pm

Eat a dick. All I said is that this is one side of the story. Just cuz Siovaughn had you reachin' in a box of kleenex, don't hop on my dick about it. I believe DWade went out like a sucka, but that doesn't mean that Siovaughn's story is the actual factual. Dummy.

Anonymous said...

Siovaughn had been with this man since she was 15. He was her first love. Her mother took both he and his sister, housed, clothed and fed them in when they had problems at home. Siovaughn was with him when he had nothing.

They were best friends.

People who are in your corner when have nothing and are nobody are hard to come by. Those are the same people who will nurse you when you are sick.

If you are lucky, one day you will get old. And you just might be broke when you do.

I'd rather be with someone who I would nurse in sickness if the chips were down and who would do the same for me.

Relationships are made of sunshine and rain.

Can you stand the rain?

Since I'm not familiar with the specifics of Dwayne's marriage I wont speculate on what did or did not happen. But why is that when a woman leaves a man is always depicted as an act of liberation,an act of self preservation, but when a man chooses to end it for whatever his reasons, it's portrayed as a dereliction of duty on his part? No matter the cause of dissolution of any relationship/marriage, women are always the victims! I guess that this is just an American thing. No one, man nor woman is guaranteed longevity in anything we do. People evolve, devolve and travel in divergent paths. Shyt happens. As a man and a former NBA player I can say with a mountain of emperical evidence to support my beliefs that MOST men are not sufficiently mature or discipline under the age of 35 to even try and conform to the rules of matrimony in the surrealistic world of professional sports. Nor are the wives of these players always innocent and can contribute themselves to the toxicity that results in divorce. These women know what they are signing on for and besides, if they want a man who will be faithful to them they would be marrying the Steve Urkels of the world!

Money, Fame, Power leads to more options.

Mothers and fathers need to teach little girls to respect themselves. If women had more respect for themselves, then men would be force to comply since there would be no one available to play with.

Every New pu$$y thinks it's the good stuff, but you quickly become old pu$$y. If the man your dealing with doesn't have the maturity or the character to be a faithful and good one (and all women know based on their man's history) then you are doomed.

Women need to pick and choose and not be so desperate, have some class and self respect and understand they are worth something.

That's why I say both Mothers and fathers must teach girls this...and it would be great if boys were taught the same thing. I am a female. My mom explained, taught and demonstrated what womenhood means and my dad told me about men and how to conduct myself as a women. It's no guarantee you get the great catch, but you a woman can set the standard.

I see too many young girls who are clueless and then 10, 15 years later wondering where all the good men are. They don't want you.

Anonymous said...

From my understanding they were over almost 2 years ago anyway. I feel like this yes he should be a father to his kids regardless,but if that is where he want to be then she need to let his azz go. He will soon wish he had stayed, that is ONLY if she was faithful cuz two wrongs don't make a right and we all know MEN don't forgive for dat type shyt!

I have followed this story for sometime. Everyone wants to yell Gabrielle is a homewrecker. Did anyone stop and realize he picked her up long after they were separated. Examine all the facts cause it takes two to tango. As he may have done his thing so has Siovaughn except she got caught and burned by her side Guy. Instead of bashing all men look at the facts he wants a relationship with his kids, how many NBA players you know fight to have rights or seek custody? Point blank Siovaugn is not stable, not willing to Foster a healthy relationship for the children. Her being "scorned" clouded her judgment to make good decisions. Dwayne didn't take those kids she gave those kids up with her foolishness. As far as money goes they started broke together, she rode his shirt tail to riches and I can tell you if she has acted this ignorant through this whole legal battle and lawyers keep quitting her. I would probably be correct to say the issue lies with her. She needs to get it together cause guess what he has.

Oh please, no one knows what the hell happened but Wade and his wife. She's not being kind simply because she is a nice person, every relationship has two people that grow each and every day; she grew, and he grew.

If the tables were turned, and yes there are wealthy women who have husbands who don't become successful, it'd be a whole different story.

Whatever Wade and his wife have experienced, I wish them the best, but DON'T START MAKING JUDGEMENTS BASED ON WHAT WE THINK WE KNOW.
