Shaquille O’Neal’s ex-wife Shaunie O’Neal talks about daughters dating NBA players despite being cheated on 2 times

Despite being cheated on by multiple women, Shaquille O’Neal’s ex-wife Shaunie is okay with their two daughters one day dating NBA players.

Few basketball players are able to remain relevant after the final buzzer has sounded. Shaquille O’Neal is not among them.

Despite the fact that his last professional game was over a decade ago, he remains a fixture in American pop culture. O’Neal performs, represents brands, and has a large following. O’Neal has achieved much success in his life, but love has not been one of them.

By 1998, O’Neal had already won Olympic gold and signed the largest contract in NBA history to play for the Lakers. He appeared to be well established, but O’Neal had yet to establish roots in terms of a family. When O’Neal met Shaunie Nelson, everything seemed to fall into place.

Even though Shaq has stated that he does not want their daughters Amirah, and Me’arah to date an NBA player, Shaunie is more open to allowing her daughters to follow their hearts.

I don’t like to put them all in a box, you know what I mean? Like every NBA player and every athlete is a certain way, even if we all know what it is. But I’m confident there are some good ones out there.” Shaunie said.

Shaunie knows firsthand how NBA players, especially superstars like her ex-husband, can stray. He proposed in 2000, and they married in 2002. He filed for divorce in 2007, but they tried one more time before divorcing in 2009.

According to Shaunie, the ex-couple are now “old friends,” and only time will tell if O’Neal’s daughters get involved with NBA players.
