On the other hand, Shaq, who has dealt with immense fame for decades now, notably advised Burrow to get off Instagram. He encouraged the Bengals QB to ensure Olivia isn’t active on Instagram as well. He then gave a reason for how relationships can go downhill because of platforms like Instagram. The four-time NBA champion claimed that baseless rumors seen online are the major cause of a tumultuous relationship. Hence, he said, “Don’t even look at the gram, keep Mama happy and make sure mama’s not on it either.”
