Shaunie & Shaquille O'Neal, In Happier Times In divorce papers filed Tuesday in a Miami court, Shaquille O'Neal, 35, claims Shaunie O'Neal, 32, has been bankin' cash on the side and has been"secretive about her assets," reports The Miami Herald.
Did anyone see them on MTV's "Cribs?" For some reason, I found it odd that the Superman logo the Miami Heat superstar is completely obsessed with was engraved on Shaunie's seperate shower door.
In fact, she made reference to the fact that although this was HER private bathroom, it was still all about HIM! While the sistah raised the issue and then quickly dismissed it by saying, "it's okay, I love him", that still did not sit right with me. Obviously, I wasn't alone!
The couple, who have four kids together and each have a child from a previous relationship, jumped the broom in a ghetto fabulous Beverly Hills ceremony in 2002. Wasn't that the same year Juanita Bynum threw her ridiculously lavish wedding? (must have been a bad year for high profile Black couples!)
Big Shaq Diesel, the former Laker currently in a contract with the NBA Heat worth a cool $100 mil, has asked the court to order a full investigation into every penny Shaunie came into during their union.
On a quest to whip fat kids into shape while making Kobe Bryant look bad at every turn, the Big Daddy also notes that he made Shaunie sign a pre-nup -- which he's asking the court to keep private. As for custody, the jet-setting basketballer requested that the kids live with Shaunie, and that he receive "liberal rights of visitation."
