Dwyane Wade's wife fails to regain custody

A Cook County judge has denied a request by the estranged wife of Miami Heat star Dwyane Wade that the couple's two sons be returned to her.

A judge last week awarded Wade "physical possession" of the boys after determining Siohvaughn Wade interfered with the player's visitation with his children.

In issuing the order the order Wednesday, Associate Judge Fe Fernandez wrote the court was troubled by Siohvaughn Wade's continuing pattern of obeying court orders when they go her way and disobeying them when they do not.

Fernandez on Monday denied woman's request that the couple's two boys be returned to her immediately.

Wade and his one-time high school sweetheart have been engaged in a long and bitter divorce.
