Shaq Responds To His Ex Wife Shaunie Henderson
Henderson wrote about Shaq, "Looking back, I don’t know that I was ever really in love with the man, but I was in love with the idea of being married to the man I had a family with." She continued, "I was in love with the idea of building a life together. I truly did enjoy spending time with him. [NBA] road trips allowed me to be with my husband and experience the NBA life for a little while." Shaq responded to the quote on Instagram with a sad post saying, “I understand…I wouldn’t have been in love with me either. Wishing you all the best….”
Shaq was known for his infidelity while the pair were married. Shaq has previously apologized for his adultery throughout their marriage, and Henderson reportedly defended him somehow in her new book. Overall, Shaunie Henderson is just reflecting on a significant part of her life in her new book. Shaq is also dealing with his past, and it's probably a lot for the big fella. All in all, the post on Instagram is kind of sad to see.
