Hollywood's favourite power couple, Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade, have officially launched their much-anticipated annual luxury getaway, the #WadeWorldTour2025. Following exotic past destinations like Spain, France, and Africa, this year's tour has landed the stylish family in the culturally rich landscapes of Japan.

Jet-Setting in Style: The Journey Begins

The Bring It On actress announced the commencement of their adventure with a chic Instagram post on December 27. Sharing a glimpse from their private aircraft, Union captioned the series, "And We’re Off!!!" accompanied by a globe and Japanese flag emoji. The photograph captured a relaxed Dwyane Wade in the foreground, sporting a light hoodie and a subtly embroidered baseball cap, flashing a calm smile. In the background, a cheerful Gabrielle stood in the aisle, flashing a peace sign to the camera.

This well-timed post-holiday escape comes just days after the couple celebrated 12 years since Dwyane's proposal to Gabrielle, adding a layer of romantic significance to their travels. True to their reputation, the #WadeWorldTour promises a blend of high fashion, luxury experiences, immersive culture, and precious family time.

A Grounding and Joyful Christmas Prelude

Before embarking on their Japanese sojourn, the Union-Wade clan enjoyed an intimate and heartwarming Christmas celebration at home. Gabrielle, who is highly active on social media, shared numerous photos and videos from their family game night, dubbing it "Holiday games of Kaavia's Christmas Eve games (First Edition)."

The games were filled with laughter and healthy competition. Their daughter, Kaavia James Union Wade, was seen teaming up with her father, with moments of playful frustration when their tower of pieces kept tumbling down. Other activities included blindly gathering stars from a bowl. Dwyane even broke into a victory dance after Kaavia's team won, with the champion taking home a bag of sunflower seeds as a prize.

Reflecting on the festive season, Gabrielle penned a thoughtful caption: "This season gave us exactly what we needed in presence over pressure, warmth over expectation, and moments that felt real instead of rushed... We’re holding onto that energy as a quiet promise to move into the next chapter with more intention, gratitude, and grace."
