Shaquille O’Neal is not the kind of person who remains silent when faced with allegations.
Royce Reed, Dwight Howard’s former girlfriend and the mother of his child, recently revealed that Shaq flirted with her while he was still married to Shaunie Anderson.

Reed, who is known for her disclosures about Howard, discussed her experience on the reality show “Basketball Wives” during a YouTube interview. She explained that Shaq sent her flirtatious text messages when she was a dancer for the Miami Heat, clarifying that the basketball legend obtained her number through a ball boy.
Reed did inform Shaunie about the situation, but she felt uncomfortable due to the cast members’ inquiries. Nevertheless, Reed remained on the show for four seasons. In response to Reed’s claims, Shaquille O’Neal suggested that she might be motivated by financial interests, although he did not directly refute her allegations.
Shaq is astute, so he knows how to influence our perception of her remarks with his response.
