Kaavia had a big year this year, including getting to attend the 2024 Olympics in Paris, France. In August, Union and Wade shared photos of their time at the games on their respective Instagrams, watching Team USA take home its fifth-straight Olympic gold medal in men's basketball.

The NBA legend sat with Kaavia as he spectated the game in August. He documented the special father-daughter bonding moment on his Instagram Stories.

“So Daddy and Kaavia are coming to you live from Paris at halftime of the gold medal game,” the retired athlete said in a video posted mid-game.

As the duo sat together in the stands of the men’s basketball finals — in which Team USA defeated France — Kaavia pulled at her hair, seemingly trying to take it out of its updo.

“Okay, take the hair down, take the hair down, hold on,” Wade said with a smile as the little one removed her hair tie.

While attending the 2024 Met Gala, Union shared with PEOPLE that her daughter Kaavia had inspired her stunning mermaid-like gown for the evening.

"This is inspired by her," Union said of Kaavia. "She's a water baby — she loves the water. And she was like, 'Mommy, you look like a mermaid!' "

Union walked the Met Gala red carpet alongside Wade, marking their fifth time attending fashion's biggest night of the year together.
