Over a month after the retired NBA player revealed he had surgery to remove a cancerous tumor from his kidney in 2023, his wife Gabrielle Union shared a heartfelt update on his health.
"He's cancer free now," the Bring It On actor told Access Hollywood on Feb. 27, adding she appreciated her husband's choice in waiting a year to announce his diagnosis. "[That decision gave] us a little time to make peace with it and let all of our very intense fears dissipate a little bit, but he's doing well."
Gabrielle, 52, added their family, which includes 6-year-old daughter Kaavia James Union Wade, are "proud of him" for handling his health scare with grace, saying, "He was brave enough to not only go through all the things he needed to do to take care of his health, but to share it with the world and save other people."
