There is no evidence that she has any Haitian ancestry. Her family is from Nebraska — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sagekreyol ( talk • contribs) 06:10, 25 September 2012 (UTC)
There's an uncited sentence that says Union's been linked with Wade. I'd say it's a little more than that since she spent an entire interview on Kimmel talking about their relationship. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.52.147.84 ( talk) 20:55, 21 April 2010 (UTC)
Is it just me? Or does enyone else feel the paragraph about the rape is a little too... personal? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.250.130.215 ( talk • contribs) 19:03, 16 October 2006
She was "raped at" ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.255.1.54 ( talk) 12:52, 12 March 2012 (UTC)
why is that info listed its info you would find on imdb.com ( Inferno17 ( talk) 18:01, 2 July 2009 (UTC)).
Was she really born in 1972. Some references need to be cited for the same. The reason I ask is that she acted in the movie "10 Things I hate about you" and played a high school girl at age 27 with co-actors who where a decade younger than her. Doesn't seem right. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 113.193.130.146 ( talk) 20:00, 22 January 2014 (UTC)

to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:
When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at {{

It is rare that an established actress with a well-known name and credits in that name will change it on marriage. We would need to see some proof in reliable sources per WP:BLP to support any name changes and that is not in the article in its current form. Geraldo Perez ( talk) 22:57, 10 July 2016 (UTC)
As with Mariah Carey, Mick Mars, Lil' Kim and some other celebrities who fudge their birthdates, there are conflicting reliable sources that give both 1972 and 1973. In fact, one of the sources cited here, Encyclopedia of World Biography, has two different years on two different pages of the very same website. When the very same website gives two different dates, it's disallowed POV to choose one over the other. -- 159.123.253.101 ( talk) 16:17, 12 October 2016 (UTC)
IrisC commented in the edit history "Confirmed date of birth as October 29, 1972. During an interview on The Ellen DeGeneres Show on November 4, 2016, Ms. Union confirmed she "turned 44 this past Saturday
". This should be authoritative, if accurately reported, as it is her own words and does not appear to be self-serving as it supports an older age and generally when ages are fudged they are fudged to be a bit younger for people well-past young adulthood. It would be great if there were a video available so that others can
verify what her exact words were, or some reliable secondary source that reports on the interview.
