Through his lawyers, Miami Heat star Dwyane Wade has issued an official statement to the media regarding his ex-wife Siohvaughn, their divorce settlement and a few of her claims. Read the statement below.
Via Rhymes With Snitch:
“Dwyane Wade and his ex-wife Siohvaughn Funches have reached a financial settlement. The agreement was submitted in court last Tuesday, July 16 prior to Ms. Funches’ recent unfounded and erratic public display outside the courthouse this past Friday. Dwyane Wade has made several requests over the years to settle this matter, despite Ms. Funches having 16 different attorneys and 2 arrests throughout this process. Mr. Wade has provided a very generous settlement to Ms. Funches to continue to live a wonderful lifestyle for the rest of her life.
Despite false allegations by Ms. Funches claiming to be “homeless” and “destitute,” Dwyane Wade has maintained over the years financial support to his ex-wife by providing her with income over $25,000 on a monthly basis, timely paid for her home mortgage, maintenance and security at the house, 4 cars, insurance, taxes and all of her attorney fees throughout this process. Ms. Funches has made a mockery of homelessness which is a serious and personal issue for Mr. Wade as his mother was homeless for a period of time when he was a child.
Dwyane Wade was awarded sole custody of their sons by the court in 2011. The safety and wellbeing of his children are his main priority. Due to Ms. Funches’ current unstable mental state, her visitation will be determined by the court. Mr. Wade continues to hope that one day he will have a civil relationship with his ex-wife for the sake of their sons.”
D.Wade also released a little “statement” of his own via his Instagram page:
I may be alone on this but I never took what Siohvaughn was saying as her being homeless. She was definitely protesting but I don’t think she was saying she was homeless. I DO think she eluded that she should be getting more and that D Wade is hiding money. And she does seem genuinely concerned for her child. This whole thing is a mess and what I’m going to need Mr. Wade to do is stay off instagram with the drama. This is not the first time he’s taken subliminal jabs.
