Gabrielle Union thanks those she’s ‘never met’ for support amid ‘AGT’ drama
Gabrielle Union focused on gratitude this Thanksgiving.
“Grateful ❤❤❤ Happy Thanksgiving good people,” the former “America’s Got Talent” co-host captioned a photo on Instagram with husband Dwyane Wade, 12-year-old stepson Zion and 1-year-old daughter Kaavia James on Thursday.
“To all the friends and family that have my back and all the friends and family I’ve never met who show love and support when everyone is looking and when no one is looking…All praise, gratitude and thankfulness.”
The family photo comes a day after the 47-year-old tweeted, “So many tears, so much gratitude. THANK YOU! Just when you feel lost, adrift, alone… you got me up off the ground. Humbled and thankful, forever.”
Union’s posts followed reports published Wednesday detailing alleged toxicity on the set of the NBC talent series. Union is said to have brought up racially insensitive incidents to producers, according to Variety.
She and fellow judge Julianne Hough, who was also ousted, reportedly received “excessive notes on their physical appearance,” the outlet also noted.
A show source addressed the allegations Wednesday to Page Six, stating, “Ensuring a safe environment is so important to the show. Anytime someone comes forward and has issues, we take things very seriously.”
