Dwayne Wade is not afraid to go to great lengths to protect the ones he loves.
The NBC star recently filed a petition in court to legally change 15-year-old daughter Zaya’s gender and name from Zion Malachi Airamis Wade to Zaya Malachi Airamis Wade.
The 15-year-old showed off her flawless transition by modeling for Tiffany and Co. In a recent update on her Instagram story, Zaya posted herself in new long, flowing tresses with a caption: “Dreams become reality.”
She also posted the set of pictures in the form of an Instagram post and received compliments and admiration from celebs and fans alike. However, after a short while, the comment section was limited, leaving fans wondering why.
Replying to one of the tweets, Wade cleared the air and said: “For Zaya’s mental health and privacy we’ve decided not to allow the hate into her comments, “ he tweeted, thanking fans for wanting to “spread and send love.”
