Shunning Shaquille O’Neal’s Sincere Gesture Towards New Husband, Unfazed Shaunie Savors Moment With Loved-Up Post

Shaquille O’Neal led a career that brought him the love and affection of fans around the world. However, as he has admitted, it also led him to a level of fame and attention that he couldn’t always control. As much success as he had with his fans, unfortunately, the same could not be said about his marriage to Shaunie Nelson. 12 years after their divorce was finalized, Big Diesel‘s ex-wife, now going by Shaunie Henderson, has moved on and embarked on a new journey. As she celebrates a milestone in her post-Shaq life, fans were curious how the Los Angeles Lakers legend feels about the situation.

Thankfully, there are several posts hinting at how O’Neal feels about his ex-wife and her new husband.

Shaunie visits Monte Carlo landmark after a relationship milestone

Shaunie Henderson recently took to social media to share a new update as she explores the European nations of Italy and France with her husband, Keion Henderson. The duo completed one year of marriage in May of this year. The couple were all smiles as they took a picture in front of the Casino de Monte-Carlo. Shaunie captioned the post “Just the two of us,” accompanied by a heart emoji.

Shaunie tied the knot with Henderson back in May 2022.

A senior pastor and founder of Houston’s ‘The Lighthouse Church’, Henderson was a big change from the former basketball player. As the former reality star revealed, communication plays a big role in making their relationship last at a happier pace. It seems even Shaq is a fan of Shaunie’s pastor husband!

The former couple decided to keep their differences aside for a moment when their son had to undergo surgery due to a heart condition. But even after that, Shaq hasn’t been seen holding any resentment. In fact, Shaq once made use of his influence to promote the work of the pastor.

A few weeks ago, the former player took to Instagram to share a reel with his followers. It showed Keion Henderson giving a sermon about how the thought of getting ‘even’ with other people is harmful.

“When you realize who you are, it will change who you argue with,” said Henderson at the end of the clip. Big Diesel posted the reel on his Instagram as a show of goodwill. While this gesture went unnoticed by his ex, it did catch the attention of the fans who adore him the most.

While O’Neal still claims that he will “protect, provide, and love her”, he has swallowed the bitter pill and taken a step back in order to allow Shaunie to live her new life in peace.
