Dwyane Wade may be enjoying the perks that come with winning three championships (and it’s expected he will get more with LeBron James on the Miami Heat), but an area of life that continues to be complicated for him is effectively co-parenting with his ex-wife Siohvaughn Funches-Wade. The former couple has been divorced for three years, but things got messy when it came to the matter surrounding custody of their two sons. For now, D Wade has primary custody of their sons, but Siohvaughn has been diligent in her quest to get more time with the kids. She’s been telling the media that D Wade isn’t handing over the kids at the appointed court times, and she even claimed a while back that he hasn’t been paying her spousal support, although the court ordered it. She also stated that D Wade punishes her through the court every time she speaks out to the media.
D Wade was recently ordered by the judge to hand over the kids to his ex-wife for a couple of weeks, but it was also decided that Siovaughn needed to be evaluated mentally. A parenting coordinator was also assigned to make sure both parents would peacefully share time with the kids, but a new report from Gossip Extra is claiming that both the psychologist and parenting coordinator have resigned. The parenting coordinator said flat-out in court documents that he could no longer tolerate working with Siohvaughn’s lawyers, while the psychologist cited a “heavy workload” as the reason she’s quit the case. However, she plans to return the money D Wade has spent on her services so far.
Siohvaughn’s lawyers tell the site the recent personnel changes are most likely because D Wade and Siohvaughn’s divorce is so messy.
Sigh…these two again?
I wish these two adults would act like adults.
That’s never going to happen.
I don’t blame them for quitting. These two are a hot mess and have no intentions on getting it together any time soon. They are more concerned with getting back at each other for things that happened while they were married. Smh.
I don’t blame them. Sioh is crazy as hell. LOL.
D Wade ain’t no angel either tho.
SMH. Those poor kids. They will grow up to resent their parents when they read about all of this.
I think it’s karma that Siohvaughn is such a nut case. D Wade thought he was going to cheat on her and remove her from the picture and she was just going to lay down and take. Nope. I’m glad she’s giving him hell. He deserves it.
But that is so childish. It’s not our job to get revenge on people. God handles people better than we ever could. I’ not trying to tell her how to feel but this isn’t fair to the kids. They really have to stop the games they are playing with each other.
They need to grow up! It’s not about them! These kids deserve two mature parents who can coparent like they have some sense!
Thank You!!!
I’m starting to think it will never be peaceful between these two. And that’s pretty sad.
Not surprised!
Smh this whole situation is so sad. I feel bad for their kids
I am really feeling for Siohvaughn, as a mother. Queen said it best and I believe once she lets go, God will take over and do the rest. Kudos to her for going forth with her education and pursuing a law degree.
