NY MAGEE
It’s been over a decade since Shaquille O’Neal and his ex Shaunie called it quits, but that didn’t stop the NBA superstar from taking to Instagram in a suit and proclaiming: “This is the same suit I’m wearing when I marry @shaunieoneal5.”
The 46-year-old Hall of Famer just launched a suit line through JCPenney for big and tall men, and he showed some love to his ex while promoting the collaboration.
Shaunie commented on the picture by saying, “Actually this suit is more fitting for next seasons star of The Bachelor on @abcnetwork #justsayin #wedidthatalready”
The former couple married in 2002 and reportedly split up in 2009 due to his cheating ways. They have since been co-parenting their kids Shareef, Amirah, Shaqir, and Mearah and often are photographed together at family events.
The former Los Angeles Laker confessed to his infidelities in his memoir, writing: “At one time my ex-wife Shaunie and I were happy, but I admit it–I was a guy. I was a guy with too many options. Choosing to be with some of those women, well, that’s on me. In my mind, I never did it disrespectfully, but obviously, I shouldn’t have done it all.”
Shaunie responded to his cheating by: “I went in the arena, and I went in that garage, not only did I flatten tires, bust a few windows, I wrote on the hood of his car, ‘I cheat on my wife. I ain’t sh*t’ with a knife.”
