Actress Gabrielle Union made headlines for her outspokenness and criticism of Disney’s silence regarding a Florida bill that restricts gender identity education for young children. Union, who is the stepmother of trans influencer Zaya Wade, has been supportive of early education about gender identity due to her experience with Zaya’s transition.
Zaya’s parents, Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade, have been open about learning from their daughter and supporting her throughout her journey. Zaya has become a positive representation of a healthy trans family dynamic in the media.
Gabrielle Union currently stars as the matriarch in Disney’s “Cheaper by the Dozen” reboot but has expressed uncertainty about her future with the company. She criticized Disney for not speaking out against the Parental Rights In Education bill signed into law by Florida’s governor Ron DeSantis. Many were disappointed with Disney’s silence on an issue that affects the LGBTQ+ community, which they often support in their films and media.
Despite an internal apology from Disney CEO Bob Chapek, Union believes her character on “Cheaper by the Dozen” might be written off the show due to her outspokenness. Her concerns have sparked debates among fans, with some questioning the need to discuss sexual orientation and gender identity with very young children.
