Allow Zaya Wade to re-introduce herself!

Last night, the 12-year-old made her first red carpet appearance since retired NBA player Dwyane Wade announced she's a transgender girl last month. To be clear, Zaya has said nothing regarding her sexuality, only gender.

D. Wade and his wife Gabrielle Union joined Zaya on the carpet for the 6th annual Truth Awards, which was created to recognize and highlight the accomplishments of the Black LGBTQ+ community and its allies, held at Taglyan Complex in LA. The Wades rolled up on the scene in custom designed Rich Fresh suits.

Actress Sheryl Lee Ralph and her husband/politician Vincent Hughes were in the mix.

The Wades were there to celebrate celebrity stylist Jason Bolden and his husband Adair Curtis, who were being honored at the ceremony with the Business Leadership Award. If you didn't know Jason and Adair both star on Netflix's "Stying Hollywood" series.

Zaya even presented Jason and Adair - whom he affectionately called his god fathers - with their award during the ceremony. He received a lot of love when he hit the podium to speak. Check it:

Proud parents D. Wade & Gabby shared flicks from their impromptu photoshoot before they left their LA mansion:

It was an EPIC night filled with so much love & a real sense of community. It was important for Zaya to be a part of such a beautiful night & reminding her of all the love & support she has. We were moved to tears so many times throughout the night. So much gratitude

In D. Wade's comments section, Adair wrote, "I said last night (through my tears of joy) and I’ll say it again here - this family can teach a Master Class in what unconditional love, compassion and support looks like! It meant the world to us to have you all there to support. I can’t overstate this fact! Framily forever! #RealAllies"
