Gabrielle Union is avoiding all drama surrounding her fiancee Dwyane Wade and his new baby mama, Aja Metoyer, but she has revealed how the Miami Heat star got down on one knee.

The actress has been making her rounds to promote the premiere season of BET's Being Mary Jane, which debuted Tuesday night. She recently dropped by ABC's Live With Kelly & Michael! and didn't address news about Wade's third son, Xavier Zechariah Wade or if they couple was on a break when the baby was conceived. But she did reveal how the recent marriage proposal went down, which she thought was a joke at first.

"I was completely surprised. He and the boys planned it completely as a family. We were just going to spend the day having family time. Go to lunch. He said, do you want to do your hair or makeup? I was like, 'No.' We were going from there to Our house that is under construction and I was dressed for a construction site," she said.

Union continued:

"So the boys are like, can we do a presentation for you. So me and D turn around and then the boys say, 'OK we're ready.' And we turn back around and they're holding signs that say "Nicki [Nique?], will you marry us?"

"But the thing is, they ask me all the time. So I was like, 'Well this is embarrassing. Now they bring in signs."

"So I turn to D and he was down on one knee. And he was like, would you marry us? And I was like, 'Oh you're serious?! Oh, of course!"

Union did not reveal when she and Wade plan to tie the knot.
