While Thirsting Over 7'1 Shaquille O'Neal, TV Host Doxxed Nischelle Turner's Romance With The Lakers Legend

Shaquille O’Neal has been with a slew of women ever since he’s been in the spotlight. He’s had over 30 years worth of relationships to show for, with his most prominent being his 5-year long marriage with Shaunie O’Neal. Shaunie recently remarried, tying the knot with Keion Henderson, taking ‘Henderson’ as her last name and dropping ‘O’Neal’. 

Shaunie and Shaq met after he made his way to LA from the Orlando Magic. Prior to this, he was in a relationship with high school sweetheart, Arnetta Yardbourgh, who he fathered a child (Taahirah) with as well. 

After his divorce with Shaunie, Shaq went on a relationship spree with a multitude of women, including he likes of Laticia Rolle and Nicole ‘Hoopz’ Alexander. His most recent rumored love interest has been Nischelle Turner, his co-host on the ‘Big Podcast’.

Sherri Shepherd reveals Nischelle Turner’s relationship with Shaquille O’Neal 

Sherri Shepherd dropped quite the bomb on his talk show while she was thirsting over Shaquille O’Neal. During a segment revolving solely around complimenting Shaq’s 7’1 frame and the work he’s put into getting himself back into shape, Sherri very casually revealed that the 2000 NBA MVP was in fact dating Nischelle Turner. 

“Shaquille O’Neal, I’m just lookin’. How do you go to bed with the woman that you are with. You are huge. Look at this man. He is 7-feet 1-inch. His girlfriend, Nischelle Turner, is 5’7, okay? His ex-girlfriend, Hoopz, was 5’2. Hoopz, I need to know- you know what, never mind,” said Shepherd. 

Clearly, Sherri has some inside information about how O’Neal and Nischelle are with one another as neither of them have ever confirmed that they were romantically involved. If what she just revealed is true, the two have done quite a job at hiding it from the general public. 

Have Shaquille O’Neal and Nischelle Turner been out in public together? 

Both Shaquille O’Neal and Nischelle Turner stepped out together most prominently for last year’s Super Bowl festivities. They were even photographed together multiple times. They have however, never spoken up about anything regarding a romantic relationship between the two. 

Other than this one moment, their only public interactions are ones fans get to witness on the ‘Big Podcast’ where they talk about the entertainment and sports industries alongside Spice Adams.
