The couple was also spotted taking a ride on a SeaDoo in a set of matching black helmets.

Wade, 39, and Union showed off plenty of PDA throughout the day — including a steamy kiss on the deck.

The couple has been touring the Mediterranean for about a week, according to Union’s social media. She’s geotagged several photos from their getaway in different Italian cities including Capri, Positano and Ponza.

Union has also given their trip a nickname by hashtagging photos “#WadeWorldTour2021.”

Union has shared endless photos from her trip, including a romantic set of her and Wade taken by her very own content creator, Ayanna McKnight.

In the photos, Wade and Union, who wed in 2014 , stroll the streets of Italy while chatting, laughing and holding hands.

Union is also sporting much longer hair for the Italy trip than the drastic haircut she debuted on social media in mid-July.

For the cut, Union cut off all of her hair and embraced a naturally curly pixie cut.

“The movies always show women cutting their hair when all is lost,” she captioned the photos of her new do, “but I wanted to know the feeling of making a change when things are gravy.”

Union, 48, and Wade, 39, soaked up the sun in swimsuits on the deck of a yacht off the coast of Corsica on Tuesday, and couldn't have looked happier.

The actress took to Instagram to share some snapshots of their Mediterranean vacation, and included a video of her and Wade sharing a sweet kiss , as her husband reached around and grabbed her backside.

"Stop playin wit that man!!! 😂🛥🌊" Union jokingly captioned the post, which also included some pics of some gorgeous seaside towns and a romantic sunset shot of the couple looking off into the distance over the ocean.

Wade shared another series of steamy shots from the deck of the boat, as he and Union stood side-by-side looking out over the waters.

The couple have been in the Mediterranean, spending time in Corsica, Sardinia, and several other stunning Italian towns such as Capri, Positano and Ponz over the past few weeks as part of what they have been referring to as the "#WadesWorldTour2021"

The pair have spent the vacation with their close family and friends, trying to take in as much sun and fun as possible.

However, that didn't stop Wade from commemorating and celebrating the 21-year anniversary of Union's breakthrough role in Bring It On . On Wednesday, he reposted a clip from the movie in which Union's cheerleader character confronts a group of rival cheerleaders, led by Kirsten Dunst.

"Oh that’s her I mean business walk," Wade joked. "Every-time I leave the toothpaste cap off."

Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade Pack on PDA While Yachting in Spain

Published on 8/22/2022 at 4:55 PM

Wade World Tour 2022 has commenced. Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade are currently vacationing in Europe together, and it looks like they're having the time of their lives, per usual. Ahead of their eighth wedding anniversary later this month, the couple jetted off to Spain, where they're exploring the coast aboard a luxurious yacht. So far, they've visited the island of Mallorca, but we have a feeling that's just the beginning of their adventures abroad.

During their European getaway, Union and Wade have packed their days with fun activities, including riding jet skis, filming funny TikTok videos, enjoying a picturesque spa day, eating dinner surrounded by rose petals, playing catch in the ocean, and sipping Champagne on their yacht. Seeing as Union captioned one social media post "Alone time. So very necessary," it seems their 3-year-old daughter, Kaavia , isn't in tow for their travels, so they're soaking up some kid-free rest and relaxation.

The former NBA player and "Bring It On" star have collected quite a few stamps on their passports together, embarking on a similar Mediterranean yacht trip last summer around the same time. Earlier this year, they hit up Milan Fashion Week to check out Prada's runway show, and they've also vacationed in Greece , France , Maui , and other parts of Spain, always treating fans to plenty of content along the way.

Read ahead to check out all the steamy footage from Union and Wade's latest world tour.

Major FOMO Alert! Watch Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade Dance on a Yacht During Italy Vacation

The famous couple showed off their best dance moves while on the boat in Capri

Dwyane Wade and Gabrielle Union are living it up!

While embarking on their “#WadeWorldTour,” the superstar couple have shared countless photos and videos from their summer trip to Italy, — spending much of their time soaking up the sun’s rays on board a super yacht.

On Wednesday, the America’s Got Talent judge, 36, posted posted a clip of her and Wade, 37, dancing on the boat during a sojourn in Capri amid a stunning sunset. The carefree couple showed off their moves to the tune "Pon De River, Pon De Bank" by Elephant Man and broke it down following a sweet kiss.

The former Miami Heat player was dressed in all black and colorful sneakers, while Union glowed in a white, wrap dress.

“Our lens. Our story,” the actress captioned the FOMO-inducing clip, adding on hashtags, “ #WadeWorldTour2019 ,” “ #567 ” and “ #tighthipchallenge ” and concluding with the song’s title: “🎶 Pon di river, pon di bank🎶.”

Other images and videos saw the sexy spouses drinking wine, yacht lounging in different Italian cities and living it up in a club .

In another video post, Wade took the mic for his rendition of “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You” — perhaps a nod to his wife’s movie 10 Things I Hate About You , which includes a memorable performance by Heath Ledger singing and dancing to the same song!

“On my Titanic ish, except I’m not letting Jack go out like that,” Union captioned one snapshot of herself with her arms spread wide, a glass of wine in one hand. “And I’ve got @dwadecellars rosé💃🏿💃🏿💃🏿”

Union and Wade’s trip comes less than a week after they attended the Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Sports Awards on July 11, with 8-month-old daughter Kaavia James in tow. Kaavia looked too cute in a white sundress paired with white sandals while her mom wore a peacock-patterned cocktail dress by Antonio Berardi and gold heels.

On Tuesday, the L.A.’s Finest actress shared a glamorous mother-daughter photograph to her Instagram account that showed just how much both beauties look alike . Photographer April Belle captured the ladies in the shot, which Union captioned, “Settled and Serving.”

The star wore a turquoise two-piece with a statement necklace, covered by a coordinating Aphrodite Goddess Kaftan by Sai Sankoh’s self-titled resort-wear brand.

“Thanks for doing my kaftan such justice,” Sankoh wrote in her own Instagram post of the picture .

Kaavia, meanwhile, matched her mom in a printed dress and head wrap — but the outfit was actually first seen on the youngster in the beginning of the month, when Union shared a photo of her daughter in the look on Kaavia’s personal Instagram page run by her famous parents.

Cardio day goals.

Wade’s Instagram has recently chronicled his envy-worthy vacation with wife Gabrielle Union and a number of lucky friends. The #wadesworldtour2021 and #wadeswithfriends includes a tour of the Mediterranean on a very expensive yacht, with plenty of sun and sand, and jet skiing through the ocean .

Clearly Wade and Union are enjoying themselves. But Wade, inspired by fellow former basketballer Magic Johnson, decided to bring his gym along with him on vacation—in this case, using a crane to load his exercise equipment onboard As seen in Wade’s stories , he’s got a SoulCycle at-home bike and a treadmill on the yacht’s deck, looking out over the ocean.

It’s not a bad view, and Wade, who’s previously thanked the bike and its connected classes for helping him stick to a workout routine “after all this pasta,” worked out at least long enough to take the picture. You know, in case anyone was worried that he was slacking during his luxury vacation.

If Dwyane Wade can find the time for a spin class while soaking up sun in the Mediterranean, maybe there’s still hope for the rest of us with our busy schedules. Hopefully Wade’s seaboard spinning gives you some inspiration. Celebrities: They really are just like us.

How Did Dwyane Wade Do That?

• By Kim Kavin
• Updated: January 14, 2014

Social media is buzzing today about NBA player Dwyane Wade, who celebrated his 32nd birthday this past weekend aboard the 130-foot Venetian Lady in South Florida. The Miami Heat star managed to turn the yacht into a floating piece of artwork from superstructure to waterline — and inside, too.

“We’ve done this in the past, just not on such a large scale,” said Mike Simpson, owner of Biscayne Lady Yacht Charters, which operates_ Venetian Lady_ for weddings and event charters out of Miami. “It pushed the limit on what I’ve seen done on any yacht.”

Simpson worked with Bruno Dede, the owner of Metro Signs Inc. in Hollywood, Florida, whose Metro Wrapz division created and installed the graphics on the yacht’s exterior and interior. Dede says his company wraps many things, including lots of cars, and has done yachts before, but never one as big as Venetian Lady. That’s true inside and out, since the yacht’s 8-foot ceilings are what attract many basketball players in the first place.

Both Simpson and Dede say Wade’s event charter was put together quickly, with the graphics moving from conception through design to installation inside of a week. The actual installation process took 10 people 24 work hours to complete, Dede says. His company creates the wrapping material in-house, then affixes it to the yacht using a 3M film whose edges are sealed, keeping it attached even while the yacht is under way yet still making it removable with about a day’s work by a half-dozen people. According to Dede, the process leaves no lasting effects on the yacht’s exterior paint job.

Wade got the idea for the black-and-white design from a display that was on the side of a building during a recent Miami-wide art event, Simpson says. That image was brought to Dede’s team, which turned it into the indoor and outdoor designs that ended up all over the yacht as well as on a custom jacket that Wade had designed elsewhere so that his personal attire would match the evening’s graphic theme.

“We specialize in doing amazing things in a short period of time,” Dede said, adding that the price for his firm’s work varies depending on what clients want. For something like Wade’s concept, he said, “It’s not cheap.”

The price for the wrap job was in addition to the charter fee for Venetian Lady , which Simpson says usually books at $150 to $200 a head for a 100-person event.

“That’s everything that people get for a basic charter for four hours,” he said. “This was not basic.”

Dwyane Wade Jokingly Bites Gabrielle Union’s Butt on Yacht: See the Steamy Pics From Their Vacation

Keeping the spark alive! Dwyane Wade jokingly bit Gabrielle Union ’s bikini-clad butt as the duo took a romantic yacht ride.

The 49-year-old Bring It On actress shared the video of her NBA alum husband, 40, via Instagram on Monday, August 22. The couple, who have been married since August 2014 , could also be seen dancing on their knees in the clip.

Union used the hashtag #WadeWorldTour2022 in the caption, alluding to her and Wade’s summer vacation . She and the former basketball star have been sailing on a yacht near Mallorca, a Spanish island.

“When you don’t read emails … goodness awaits,” the Think Like a Man star captioned an Instagram video of her and the former shooting guard getting ready to go ashore for dinner, blissfully unaware of where they were headed.

At the end of the clip, Union sang along to “Always Something There to Remind Me” back onboard the boat. “How the night ended,” she wrote alongside the footage.

The actress and athlete, who began dating in 2008, welcomed a daughter, Kaavia , via surrogate in November 2018. In March, the Being Mary Jane star told Entertainment Tonight that the now-3-year-old is a “little roast comedian,” referencing a viral video of Kaavia blowing into her hand and taking a whiff, hinting to her mom that she had bad breath .

“The woman told me to my face that my breath stinks,” Union joked. The Nebraska native is also stepmom to Wade’s three children — Zaire, 20, and Zaya , 15, from his previous marriage to Siohvaughn Funches and Xavier, 8, whom he shares with Aja Metoyer .

Union, for her part, was previously married to former NFL player Chris Howard from 2001 to 2006. She and Wade were on a break when his son Xavier was born in 2013 while she was experiencing fertility issues herself .

“The experience of Dwyane having a baby so easily — while I was unable to — left my soul not just broken into pieces, but shattered into fine dust scattering in the wind,” the Birth of a Nation actress wrote in her September 2021 memoir, You Got Anything Stronger . “We gathered what we could to slowly remake me into something new. There was no way to disguise where I’d been glued back together.”

The Love & Basketball star wrote that her husband “had worked to be forgiven, and I had chosen to love him and forgive him. And part of this journey of making peace with our love is also making peace with ourselves.”

This Florida château gives whole new meaning to the words “living on the water.”  

Remember when Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade had a secret wedding at a moated castle in Florida? Well, this is that much-talked-about château—and it just hit the market for $19.7 million. The regal abode built over a shimmering freshwater lake was created by renowned Miami architect Charles Sieger, who has occupied the private residence for over a decade alongside his wife. Château Artisan , as it’s referred to, has eight bedrooms, seven full bathrooms, five powder rooms and a sprawling 20,000 square feet of living space.

Château Artisan created by Charles Siegler sits on a manmade, freshwater lake 45 minutes outside of Miami.  Troy Campbell

Although Sieger built the opulent dwelling for himself, the engineering needed to make it happen was no easy feat—it actually took six years to complete. Inspired by the way the river Cher runs under Château de Chenonceau in France , the architect had to dig out the foundation of the palatial home from the coral rock in which it currently stands, enabling the structure to sit in the middle of a landlocked moat. 

Situated on its own 14-acre parcel, Château Artisan has all the comforts of a private oasis—with an added dose of European charm and medieval-style security. Like any self-respecting fortress, there’s only one way to enter and exit this home and that’s down a single road, through a set of heavy metal gates. At the start or end of the tree-lined driveway, depending on which direction you’re traveling, is a drawbridge that crosses over the lake. Two diamond-shaped courtyards, one of which houses a black granite pool, are located to the east and west. Stepping stones lead out to two gazebos to the north and south, designed for either dining alfresco or sleeping under the stars.

Inside, ornate interiors abound, starting with an impressive double-stair foyer. Across its three levels, Château Artisan comprises a formal dining room, a state-of-the-art chef’s kitchen and a lavish music room. On the north wing is the primary bedroom with 23-foot-high ceilings and an en suite bathroom outfitted with a dressing room island, “midnight” kitchen and walk-in Roman tub.

In a fun twist, the third floor was designed to resemble the inside of a superyacht, with linen paneling, mahogany accents and pleather coverings. Here, you’ll also find guest bedrooms and two children’s play lofts. Elsewhere, oenophiles will appreciate the 3,000-bottle wine room. There’s also a dedicated home theater for movie night. 

The grounds are just as ornate as the home’s interior, brimming with fountains, statues, topiaries, two canals and a lagoon. There’s even an intricate maze that leads to a meditation garden with ruins made from coral rock and a rushing waterfall. You can expect to see some wildlife, too, as there’s a Japanese koi pond on-site. “This really is the jewel of Miami,” says eXp Realty listing agent, Carlos Justo.

A jewel with its own drawbridge, no less.

Dwyane Wade Bites Gabrielle Union’s Booty While Enjoying Summer Vacation Aboard Yacht Off The Coast Of Mallorca

Dwyane Wade and Gabrielle Union are enjoying life. The power couple is on their #WadeWorldTour2022 and while aboard a yacht, Wade takes a bite out of Union’s booty. When you’re rich and good-looking and you do things like that it becomes news.

The vacation began a few days ago in the Mediterranean off the coast of Mallorca, the largest island in the Balearic Islands, which are part of Spain. Mallorca is the birthplace and home of tennis great Rafael Nadal.

Union has been posting photos and videos of their exploits, including: a spa day, date night, the couple tossing and catching a football in the sea, and snuggling on the boat.

Many of the couple’s famous friends like Jalen Rose and Aaron Paul have commented on Union’s Instagram posts.

The happiness that we see with Wade and Union wasn’t always guaranteed. In 2013 when the couple was dating, but experiencing trouble and on a break, Wade fathered a child with another woman.

“I had a child with someone else and I had to tell her. Hardest thing I’ve ever had to do is man up and tell Gabrielle Union that I’ve had a child with somebody else,” he says in the ESPN documentary ‘D. Wade: Life Unexpected.’ ET reports. “I couldn’t sleep. I wasn’t eating.”

This was a particularly tough moment for Union. She was diagnosed with a condition called adenomyosis in her 20s. It causes the tissue lining the uterus to grow into the muscular wall of the uterus. Because of this, Union has had several miscarriages.

“To say I was devastated is to pick a word on a low shelf for convenience. There are people — strangers who I will never meet — who have been upset that I have not previously talked about that trauma,” Union writes in her memoir, ‘ You Got Anything Stronger .’ “I have not had words, and even after untold amounts of therapy I am not sure I have them now. But truth matters.”

The couple welcomed a daughter, Kaavia, born via surrogacy in 2018. But the road to that happy moment wasn’t smooth either. After another miscarriage Wade didn’t want to try again.

“‘You’ve done enough,’ he said. I looked at D with an instantaneous white-hot rage. Astonishment, really. I was fighting with my husband about what was best for my body? Did he really think that surrogacy and a baby was our chance to set it right? To rebalance?” Union recalls in her memoir. “I said coolly, ‘You’re going to be the voice of reason now? Really? Really? Is that what we’re on today?’ He looked me in the eye. ‘As much as we want this baby, I want you,’ he said slowly. ‘We’ve lost too much in our relationship for me to be okay with encouraging you to do one more thing to your body and your soul.'”

Kaavia turns 4 in November and the Wade family is happy and healthy. In addition to Kaavia Union is stepmother to Wade’s two children from his first marriage to Siohvaughn Funches, and his nephew (sister’s son) whom he also raises.

The first pavilion of Crocus Expo IEC hosted an extraordinary exposition of the 5th International exhibition of yachts and boats Moscow Boat Show. The show had been incredibly famous for five years already not only thanks to the specialists of the market segment as well as professional sportsmen but also thanks to those who consider sailing sport to be their hobby and well cherished dream.

Moscow Boat Show 2012

The organizer of the project was the Crocus Expo International Exhibition Centre. The show was supported by Aston Martin Moscow, Burevestnik Group logistics department and the Yachting specialized magazine.

The exposition space increased up to 30 000 sq m and was accommodated in all 4 exhibition halls of the fairgrounds! 280 Russian (Arkhangelsk, Vyborg, Kazan, Kaluga, Republic of Karelia, Moscow and Moscow region, Nizhny Novgorod, Novorossiysk, Novosibirsk, Rostov-on-Don, Samara, St. Petersburg, Sverdlovsk region, Sochi, Chelyabinsk, Tyumen and Yaroslavl region) and foreign ( Denmark , Germany , Holland , Greece , Spain , Italy , Cyprus , China , Latvia , Poland , USA , Turkey , Ukraine, Finland , France , Montenegro and Croatia ) companies participate in the show.

Moscow Boat Show provided the perfect platform from which to preview new products, evaluate market trends, and establish long-lasting and commercially profitable partnerships. Despite the dynamic changes taking place in Russia and the rapid growth of the yachting sector, the show continued to complement and reflect the industry’s demand and is a promotional opportunity not to be missed!

Unique exhibits were presented at the show for the first time: exposition of private submarines from U-Boat Russia company, Marquis Yachts 420 SB motor yacht from Sport Bridge S. Marine series, SAGA-415 yacht from Saga Boats Norwegian shipyard, Jetlev-Flyer from MS Watersports.

Moscow Boat Show a Great Success

More than 400 yachts were displayed within the frames of the event including the largest boats ever exhibited in Russia – the 19-meter giant motor yacht Princess 54 as well as the Princess 50 yacht from Nord Marine and Baja speed boat from Burevestnik.

Domfinland OY unveiled a luxury project from Finnish real estate: a seaside premium class hotel in Hanko named consonant with the location Merihanko.

The trade fair was traditionally opened by a Gala Opening Ceremony. Arcady Zlotnikov, First Deputy Director Crocus Expo IEC, was the first to take the floor at the official opening ceremony. He greeted warmly exhibitors, guests and visitors of Moscow Boat Show. Nikolay Krjuchek, Deputy Chief of the State Inspection on Small size Vessels (GIMS) of the Ministry for Emergency Situations of Russia, Georguiy Shaiduko, Acting President of the Russian Yachting Federation (VFPS), Olympic champion in Atlanta and Ekaterina Grishechkina, Director of exhibition Moscow Boat Show also spoke at the ceremony.

The high-ranking guests noted dynamic development of the branch which well reasoned the intensive growth of the exposition and appearance of rather unique “gems”.

A number of business meetings and negotiations were held within the frames of the project: the exhibition was visited by a large delegation of Greek businessmen for the purpose of establishment of mutually beneficial cooperation with the Russian colleagues.

More than 400 yachts on display at the Show

Russian Yachting Federation (VFPS) celebrated its 100 anniversary within the frames of Moscow Boat Show and arranged an exposition of future sailing sport museum (rare awards, gifts, articles from private collections, pictures and etc.) which had been collected since 1912.

Due to carefully chosen running dates the show was visited by more than 26 000 people. The majority of the visitors were of targeted audience – vessel owners and specialists of the branch.

The work at the next edition of the show is under way! The show will be held in March 2013. The overall exhibit space will comprise 40 000 sq m. The exhibition will impress with exclusive exhibits and the latest technological achievements.

Moscow Boat Show was not only an entertaining but at the same time a business promotional event. Participation in the trade fair was a unique opportunity to present a company and products to a distinctly selected targeted audience of industry specialists. They were well prepared to discuss business in the Russian market and even to close a deal on-site.

The show helped representatives of yachting business to get acquainted with their Russian colleagues and gradually improved national yachting market to a new level. It is obvious that for 5 years of its running the project has turned to a status event of the international exhibitions calendar.
