Dwyane Wade and girlfriend Gabrielle Union are officially engaged to be married.
Both Wade and Union shared the same photo on their Instagram accounts Saturday of Union wearing her new engagement ring, which is absolutely massive.

The Miami Heat star and actress have been dating for several years, though Wade revealed during an interview with Jay Leno that went through a rough patch because of their busy lives and took a break earlier this year. They eventually got back together, and things must be going well because now they’re engaged.
This will be the second marriage for each. Union, 41, was married to Chris Howard from 2001-2006. Wade was married to Siohvaughn Funches, the mother of his two sons, from 2002-2007. Though he filed for divorce in 2007, the proceedings weren’t finalized until 2010. His divorce has been a mess since then, with Funches even taking to the streets and claiming she was homeless to protest the settlement terms.
Wade and Union have been dating since 2007. They quickly began receiving congratulations.
This came from Wade’s teammate Mario Chalmers:
Wanna Say congrats to my big bro my mentor @DwyaneWade and my other big sis @it's gabrielleu a congrats on their engagement.
