Shaquille O’Neal has found himself at the center of dating rumors once again, but this time he is quick to dispel the speculation. Social media had been buzzing with a circulation of a photo featuring a woman, Maria Ozuna Teachey, posing in front of a mirror with someone believed to be O’Neal. The large man’s physique led many to speculate that it was the former NBA star who had his arms wrapped around her.
However, O’Neal took to WorldStar’s Instagram page to clarify the situation, stating, “I’m not the kid,” effectively putting an end to the chatter surrounding his possible romantic involvement. Within hours, Teachey, who has a following of over 200,000 on Instagram, decided to remove the image that sparked all the attention.
This isn’t the first time the 7-foot-1 Hall of Famer has been linked to dating rumors. Last year, he was spotted dining with influencer Brittany Renner, leading to similar discussions about their relationship status, which were ultimately debunked as they turned out to be just friends.
Despite the various dating rumors, including those involving past relationships with Shaunie O’Neal, Laticia Rolle, and reality star Nicole ‘Hoopz’ Alexander, Shaq remains single. At 52, the iconic basketball player and entertainer is still considered a bachelor, leaving his fans curious about who he might be dating next. With these new affirmations, Shaquille O’Neal continues to navigate his post-NBA life managing public perception with humor and grace.
