DALLAS COWBOYS’ DEMARCUS WARE AND WIFE’S STRUGGLE TO CONCEIVE
Father’s day this year will have a lasting impression on Dallas Cowboys’ linebacker Demarcus Ware.The Pro linebacker and his wife Taniqua adopted their three-month old daughter Marley after three failed pregnancies, just in time for fathers’ day. After the stillbirth of their son Omar Ware in 2006,the Ware’s at one time felt defeated :“That was the low point,” Taniqua said. “To go to the hospital and give birth and coming home with nothing. You don’t know how to react.“You’re angry, hurt, upset.”
The Ware’s finally decided to adopt this year and with the help of a friend,they were able to welcome daughter Marley,named after Demarcus’ favorite reggae artist Bob Marley,into their home.
The Wares plan to try to conceive again and have talked about becoming foster parents.In the Meantime,Demarcus and Taniqua are working with a local adoption agency for which Demarcus hopes to become a spokesman.

Great Pictures
Wow–Nothing’s better than a beautiful, hunk-of-a-man, holding his kid! Swoon!!!
سلام بر بچه پچلا
this is nice and all…. but why adopt a White baby with all of these Black and Biracial children in the adoption system? and yes this baby is supposedly all White. I don’t understand it.
Sorry, but that child looks black. Maybe biracial.. Watch the nose!!
read the article Leah27!! maybe if you read it you would see the circumstances that led to them adopting this little girl.
Leah you made a really good point.I agree.
Um…when black or biracial children are born - they’re ethnicity isn’t always obvious. I looked straight up Asian as a baby, and let’s just say - I don’t look Asian now [lolz]. I agree, Black people should stick to adopting other children of color (due to the obvious need in our community). Watch how her looks change as she ages. I’m pretty sure she isn’t white.
i agree with leah 27 yea why adopt a whit baby (no offense)
too many black children need homes. sends a bad message when black couples of their stature are taking in white children - don’t care what the circumstances are.
Some see a white baby; I see a black or biracial baby. Gee, could it be that none of us are qualified to conclusively determine an infant’s ethnic background from two photographs?
*creepy little kid whispers* I see white babies.
I think it doesn’t matter- black baby, white baby- all babies need good homes. They look wonderful together…
Sooooo sweet…A man and a baby pictured like that moves me to tears…especially after the story…omg. Thank God they have been finally blessed.
the baby could be green for what I care, I´m just happy they finally have the child they longed to have. God bless this family
Most likely she’s bi-racial, I highly doubt that they would adopt a white child.
Who cares what race Marley is. They adopted this beautiful baby because she was destined to be their little girl! Instead of asking why didn’t they adopt a black baby (as stated we do not know her race) and making it seem as though they are social misfits why don’t the black fathers who fathered the fatherless stand up and be men, maybe there would not be so many “black” babies who need homes.
Taniqua and Demarcus were very blessed to have such a good friend help them make their dream of becoming parents a REALITY. So instead of judging lets be happy for Taniqua she has overcome 3 miscarriages and through all of that still wanted to become a MOM. I truly wish them all the best and may god continue to bless them and their beautiful little girl.
That is one beatiful baby. Marley will grow up in an environment where love will always be present. She is a bi-racial baby for thoses who do not know. It does not matter if she was from any other race. What matters is how the child will be raised with love. So don’t hate on this child and her family. Rejoice in the fact that she and her parent joyful.
Thanks to those that had nothing but good comments about the family.
Have a blessed day, Everyone!
incredible…I wonder if the day wil EVER come when race isn’t an issue and doesn’t ruin moments of happiness like the one this family is enjoying. No one knows all the details behind this adoption and the circumstances of why this baby was left parentless…anyways so instead of judging, be happy that a child has a home.
Just so everyone knows Marley is Hispanic!!!! Why does race matter still so much in this country??? We should all be thankful that two loving people with lots of love and stablity have opened their hearts and home to a baby who needed a family! Why does it matter that the parents are one race and the baby another?? LOVE SEES NO COLOR PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
love sees no color-you people are is exactly why this world is like it is today-all you see is color-i’m green, what do you think of me ! Obviously she needed someone to love her, they is why she was up for adoption, get a life,
I’m a black woman and it really pisses me off to see that some of the worst comments come from other blacks. Why are we our own worst enemies? They have a child that they love and they don’t care if she is black, white, hispanic (which she is) or purple. We have a half black president in the White House. Or did we forget that he has a white mother? I would have thought that that alone would show how far as a people, blacks have come. But everytime I think so, along comes a few narrow minded venemous people spewing hatred. If whites can adopt black babies, then why can’t blacks adopt white babies? Or Asian? Or Indian? Get over it. A baby is a baby is a baby. And all those who think there’s something wrong with these two adopting outside of their race, then I hope you never have children of your own because that’s how hatred and bias is created.
I think it’s great, I’m biracial and think AA need to step out the box about adoption. My husband and I have 3 kids and our middle child was born looking just like Marley but he had gray eyes and his father is darker than DaMarcus. His family was uneasy at first but as he got older, his features changed. He is still very light, so much that many of my Hispanic friends call him little Puerto Rican. We have also have had people come and talk to him and I in Spanish and we are not of the Spanish heritage. We are looking to adopt a child and if a white child comes available for adopt there is no question; we would happily receive that child as our own. Because the child’s need is greater than any opinions of outsiders, who
(might I add) don’t even take care nor parent the child. I think that there is just as many white children waiting for adoption as AA but the statics are so swayed that we get deceive by numbers based on color.
AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW !!!!!!!!!!! XXXXXXXX
