Would Shaq be interested in tying the knot once again? While he has dated occasionally over the years, the Los Angeles Lakers legend has been single for a long time now. Ever since his divorce from Shaunie Henderson in 2011, the 4x NBA champion has strayed away from any long-term relationships. However, there might be some love interests for the 7ft giant. On his show, The Big Podcast with Funny Marco, Shaquille O’Neal hinted at someone who he would be interested in, but at the same time, had a surprising reaction when questioned about marriage.

Host of The Big Podcast Adam Lefkoe questioned Marco, Do you think men want to be monogamous? With only one woman?” The comedian replied, I believe in it.” However, he was also curious to know if Big Diesel was on the same page. He asked,  What about you? but the 52-year-old decided to turn his face all the way left, to ignore Marco.

He asked Shaq again, Do you feel like a man should be with one woman for the rest of his life and get married and settle down?Hilariously, Shaq turned further away from Marco, hinting that he was not interested in another marriage. However, Marco wanted to see Shaq in another marriage.

He told the LA icon, would like to see my favorite basketball player get married. Can I see that?” There was a few seconds of silence, and Shaq completely diverted the topic by questioning Marco about his Walmart videos. So it’s pretty evident that the 2000 MVP is not willing to tie the knot any time soon. However, this won’t stop him from showing interest in a few people he might have a crush on. 

Who is the famous YouTuber that Shaquille O’Neal has shown interest to date? 

Shaq has appeared as a guest on a lot of podcasts. One that caught the attention of many is his appearance on Bobbi Althoff’s The Really Good podcast. Surprisingly, he even inquired about Althoff to Marco. Marco told Shaq that Althoff would be the right match for him.

So Shaq wasted no time as he quickly dialed her during the show. He asked Althoff, “I’m sitting here with Funny Marco. He told me to ask you on a date, so can I take you to the movies?” What do you think the 26-year-old said?

She accepted Shaq’s request without hesitation. Also, let’s not forget that Althoff just split from her husband Cory. 34-year-old Cory filed for a divorce earlier this February. Bobbi Althoff wrote on her Instagram, As most of you have heard, Cory and I have filed for divorce…While our relationship did not work out as husband and wife, we will always be friends.” So, it looks like the path is clear for both Althoff and Shaq at the moment!
