As a forward proxy clients are *not* connecting to any of the
*.example.com domains. They are connecting to your proxy hostname - and
telling it to take care of the origin connections. So all clients need
is trust for the CA which signed the proxy's certificate.

The proxy is the only agent in the path which needs to trust the
wildcard *.example.com certificate.
