While Shaquille O’Neal has a big family, he has been a great father to his kids. The Los Angeles Lakers legend has six children- three daughters and three sons. However, time and again you can see people claiming that Big Diesel has more children. NBA legend Charles Barkley started it on ‘NBA on TNT’ by accusing Shaq of having 17 children on a funny note. Yet, Shaq’s “you will never know” response raised some serious questions. How many children does Shaquille O’Neal actually have? 

Well, Shaq has left us confused yet again. In his interview with famous YouTuber Bobbi Althoff, the 51-year-old pulled out another ‘you will never know’ move to confuse the audience. 

Does Shaquille O’Neal have more than 6 children? 

26-year-old Althoff questioned straight away, “You don’t have kids?”. Shaq hilariously replied, “I have a lot of kids, but Maury Povich has been canceled so we will never know.”

A famous TV reality show ‘Maury’, where the host conducts DNA tests to find out the actual father of children, was the start of the cancel culture. The only way we can find out if Shaq has more than six kids is by starring him in ‘Maury’.

Sadly, it has been 5 years since the show ended. Looks like Shaq does fear that series, but he is happy it is canceled. Later in the same podcast, a curious Althoff questioned Shaq again, “You never answered if you had kids?” The 4x NBA champion replied, “I do have six,” and after a short pause, “Slash thirteen”. Surprised, Althoff questioned, “How many?” Shaq this time went, “Six, slash fifteen.”

 A few minutes after mocking Althoff, Shaq yet again decided to continue the loop. 

Is the Big Aristotle trolling or is he for real? 

Why is Shaq keeping this as a mystery? For final confirmation, Althoff asked, “So you have six children?” Big Diesel replied, “Yes I have six children,” again after a short pause he added, “Maybe seven, maybe eight, maybe not.”

Well, looks like these endless confusing answers will continue. If you really want to know how many children Shaquille O’Neal actually has, you might need to ask him personally. However, that is not guaranteed to get you an answer either. 

However, we would love to know what you think. Is Shaq just trolling or is there a possibility of Shaq having more children? Share your take in the comments below.
