Shaq Gets Honest About the Collapse of His Marriage, ‘Double Life’

Shaq coming clean.

The former NBA superstar made an appearance on ‘The Pivot’ podcast and was very candid about his relationship with ex-wife Shaunie O’Neal. During the conversation, the divorce between Shaq and Shaunie was brought up, which led Shaq to take full accountability for the outcome of their relationship.

The NBA star-turned-mogul went on to say:

“I wasn’t protecting her and protecting those vows. Sometimes when you live that double life, you get caught up. So I’m not gonna say it was her, it was all me.” Shaq noted Shaunie O’Neal was amazing in their marriage and did everything she was supposed to do, before doubling down and saying the breakdown in their relationship was “all me.”

Shaq noted he never publicly spoke on their divorce.

Sounds like a case of the Grass is always greener. Props to Shaq for talking about an uncomfortable subject.
