Aja had initially caught the attention of the public media after the news went viral that Aja had a kid with the basketball sensation Dwyane Wade. This news became a very controversial topic with many even labeling Aja as a homewrecker since at this time Wade was about to be engaged with another woman.

She then appeared in Basketball Wives which propelled her to fame as the show was full of drama, especially among her sisters. This reality show was able to show the life of Aja and how she was raising kids while facing different difficult situations especially from the way that the media was portraying her.

Over the years, as Aja built up her following on different social media platforms, she started a company called Total Life Changes (TLC) which focused mostly on health and wellness products. This became a way of monetizing the loyal following she had built up and it matched the kind of target customer who followed her.

Yet, there have also been some controversies regarding her company as Total Life Changes (TLC) has been accused to be a pyramid scheme by some of the people she worked in association with.

Personal Life

Aja had met Damon Wayans Jr. as a child with them being childhood sweethearts. Over the years, Damon was able to get a lot of success as an actor and comedian appearing in the popular sitcom called Happy Endings where he was playing the character called Brad Williams. Together, the couple had two daughters.

However, the couple later split up with Damon marrying Samara Saraiva. The split of the two led to a court battle concerning their kids with Aja being blamed by Damon for not looking after their daughters properly which has led to their education not being up to par.

Yet, the real controversy would start regarding her relationship with Dwyane Wade. Though the media has portrayed her to be a homewrecker, the real story is that Dwyane had met with Aja when he was on a break from his relationship which is when their baby was conceived who would be named Xavier Zechariah Wade who was born in 2013.

During the time, it led to a lot of chaos as Xavier’s birth occurred just six weeks before Wade was about to get engaged with the actress named Gabrielle Union. What happened in this situation was later made clear by Dwyane in a press conference. Their story has even been shared in his documentary called “D. Wade: Life Unexpected.”

Aja and Dwyane went their separate ways and since then, it seems that she is single. In the time of the controversy, she even stayed away from social media to avoid the negativity surrounding the situation.
