Gabrielle Union welcomed her daughter, Kaavia James, with husband Dwayne Wade in November 2018. And judging by Gabrielle Union's latest Instagram snaps, mother and daughter are incredibly close, and they even dress alike.
Sharing several snaps taken with her mini-me, Union wrote on Instagram, "So I'm all in on this #twinningwithmommy business 🤷🏾♀️ All. In. @kaaviajames 👶🏾💃🏾." Both mom and baby are wearing cozy loungewear from SKIMS, and it's beyond adorable that their outfits are perfectly coordinated.
Union also tagged Flawless By Gabrielle Union, her moisture-rich collection for textured hair, created with Larry Sims, and makeup artist Tasha Reiko Brown, in the post.

Prior to welcoming baby Kaavia, Union opened up about her fertility struggles in her book, We're Going to Need More Wine. In an excerpt published by People, Union revealed, "I have had eight or nine miscarriages." She continued, "For three years, my body has been a prisoner of trying to get pregnant—I’ve either been about to go into an IVF cycle, in the middle of an IVF cycle, or coming out of an IVF cycle."
Despite the couple's difficulties in getting pregnant, Union revealed that they "remain bursting with love and ready to do anything to meet the child we’ve both dreamed of." The couple has since welcomed baby Kaavia. Union is also a stepmom to Wade's children: 18-year-old Zaire Wade, 13-year-old Zaya Wade, 7-year-old Xavier Wade, and 19-year-old Dahveon Morris, Dwayne's nephew whom he adopted.
