“Jason Kidd broke up with me with a ‘thumbs down’”: Gabrielle Union reveals the hilariously unorthodox method the Mavericks head coach used to break up with her in high school

Gabrielle Union says that she dated Jason Kidd in high school and that Kidd broke up with her by giving her a simple ‘thumbs down’. 

Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade are a couple that have overcome quote the bit of controversy in their early days together as a unit, to be one of the most wholesome husband and wife duos out there in the NBA landscape. They have taken to each other’s social media’s on several occasions to show love to the other. 

Of course, before finding one another, the two were involved with other people, dating all the way back to high school. As chronicled quite famously at the time, Dwyane Wade and Siovaughn Funches were married for 8 years before separating in 2010, leading up to a rather messy divorce.
