Shaquille has not publicly shared any details about his relationship status recently, indicating he may currently be single. He welcomed his first child, daughter Taahirah, with his first well-known girlfriend, Arnetta Yardbourgh, in 1996.
O'Neal then married reality TV star Shaunie Henderson from 1998 to 2010. They share five children: Shareef, Amirah, Shaqir, Me'arah and his stepson Myles.
Since then, Shaq has been linked to various women, but it is unclear if he is currently involved with anyone.
