Zaya's post is coming days after former First Lady of the United States, Michelle Obama, praised her for embracing her truth. Obama's praise came during a virtual chat she had with Zaya following the release of the young reader's edition of her book, "Becoming."
The former FLOTUS said she wants young people to practice embracing the new because she does not want them to feel stuck in their lives, adding that she believes Zaya is the kind of individual who will never feel stuck.
Since Zaya came out as a transgender person, her parents and family have been supportive of her despite the wide-ranging reactions that trailed her coming out.
Wade has credited his daughter with educating his family on what it means to be transgender and revealed that she knew she was transgender since she was 3. He added that he had to do a lot of self-reflecting to understand how best to support her.
The former Miami Heat player and his wife, Gabrielle Union, were with Zaya when she made her red carpet debut after coming out at the Truth Awards in March 2020.
In December 2020, Wade posted beautiful pictures of Zaya on his Instagram and shared a message about unconditional love, describing it as love with no strings attached.
It is such love that has helped the former basketballer and his family wade through the spotlight that shined on them following Zaya's coming out, as they remained steadfast in their support of her. That kind of love is truly commendable.
