As reported yesterday, a woman Dwyane Wade was seeing while him and Gabrielle Union were on a break at one point, gave birth to a baby boy and Wade is the father. We didn’t hear much from him on the subject until late last evening, when he confirmed the details and spoke on his relationship with Union. Hit the jump to see what he said.

“I’m in the public eye, so obviously it’s a part of it, it comes with the territory,” he said. “But you know, as I’ve always done my whole life, I always try to focus on what’s most important to me and my family. And that’s being a great father.
“I’ve always tried to show my importance in my kids’ lives, and it doesn’t change now. Me and my lady and my family have continued to move forward, and that’s evident by her accepting the ring and the proposal that I gave her.”
“But yeah, in our time apart, in our break, in our pain and our hurt, a blessing came out of it in my life,” Wade said. “You know, having a son that’s born healthy. So, moving on.”
Wade has spent time with the baby, whose name he preferred not to reveal at this time.
“You know me, (I’m) involved with my kids’ lives,” Wade said. “When my kids lived at home with me, weren’t living at home with me, I tried to do everything I could to see them. Obviously, I got custody of them for different reasons, but nothing changes in my life. And as I said, this is something that my family knows, and this is something that me and my now-fiancee worked through when we got back together and understood that we wanted to continue our lives together, and continue supporting our family. And I’m going to do that. That’s what I’ve always done.”
