Shaunie Henderson has never feared speaking up. When a particular line from her first book garnered criticism, she stood strong and slowly watched people’s support overcome the criticism. She confidently acknowledged one difference between her and her husband, and how that hasn’t stopped her from doing the duties she cares about.
During one of her conferences, the Basketball Wives star admitted that while she and her husband have different ways of praying, God listens to them the same way. Shaunie added that like many, she too struggles to find the right way, path, or words. Ultimately, her one rule helps her which is her constant passion to be a better person.
Shaunie said how she “intentionally try to be a better person and try to be a better woman of God and try to do better and speak better and better.” “So I think that there are a lot of people like me that might not have the perfect words and know all the Bible scriptures. They’re you know, like, not know how to pray like him (her husband). But I can speak to God the way I speak to God and He hears it, just like he hears my husband’s prayer. “

After her marriage to Pastor Keion Henderson, she became the first lady of the Lighthouse Church and fulfilled her duty. Along with her work and business, Henderson often joins her husband in services for the Church. She says she diligently follows another rule which is to keep learning.
The mother of four made headlines with her one comment in her book, about her past relationship with Shaquille O’Neal.
Shaunie Henderson expressed doubts about her love for Shaquille O’Neal
In her first book, ‘Undefeated, Changing the Rules and Winning on My Own Terms’, the mother of five expressed how, at one point in her previous marriage to Shaquille O’Neal, she felt unsure whether she loved him. “Looking back, I don’t know that I was ever really in love with the man,” O’Neal said. Unlike some netizens who criticized the producer for her comments, her family was very supportive.
O’Neal made a special post on Instagram to support his ex-wife and wrote that he “understands” her feelings. The O’Neal kids also supported her. In another part of the book, she stated that the Los Angeles Lakers legend was initially unhappy with Shaunie for not telling him about her engagement to Henderson before it became public.
