Gabrielle Union shared that her husband, Dwyane Wade, is officially cancer-free after he had a tumor on his kidney removed.

“He’s had the surgery, and he’s cancer-free, but it was a challenge,” Union said on Thursday’s episode of “The View.”

The “Bring It On” actress explained that the former NBA athlete kept his diagnosis “very under the radar” and only told a few of his family members.

“He didn’t tell everybody,” she recalled. “He didn’t even tell our whole family.”

Union, 52, admitted that she “was in such shock” when Wade, 43, told her the news and became “paralyzed” with fear.

“You think of the absolute worst case scenario,” she recalled. “I’ve had so many friends who are cancer survivors, [but] I didn’t go there. I went to, ‘He’s gone,’ and so it took all of us awhile.”

The “Riff Raff” actress also spoke with Access Hollywood about her husband’s health and applauded him for keeping his diagnosis under wraps for awhile.

“He was smart to delay talking about his diagnosis and the surgery for over a year to give us all a little time to make peace with it and let all of our very intense fears kind of dissipate a little bit,” she told the outlet.

Union added that Wade is “doing great” now.

“We’re proud of him that he was brave enough to not only go through all the things that he needed to do to take care of his health, but to share it with the world and hopefully save other people,” she gushed.

Wade stunned fans when he revealed last month that he had 40 percent of his right kidney removed after doctors discovered a cancerous tumor in December 2023.

“I think it was the first time that my family, my dad, my kids, they saw me weak,” Wade said on a Jan. 30 episode of his podcast, “The Why With Dwyane Wade.”

The three-time NBA champion admitted that he found himself “struggling” alone but “found strength” in his family.

“I saw my family that may not always talk, may not always agree. I saw everybody show up for me and be there for me,” he raved.

“As a man, you never want your family to see you weak,” he added. “Don’t want to be perceived weak, don’t want to be seen in your weakest moments but I had to.”

Wade and Union –– who tied the knot in 2014 –– share 6-year-old daughter Kaavia. Wade also has son Zaire, 23, and daughter Zaya, 17, with ex-wife Siohvaughn Funches and son Xavier, 11, with Aja Metoyer.
