O'Neal spotted alone

A fan spotted Shaquille O'Neal walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of September 15, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Shaquille back on the market?

A rep for Shaquille O'Neal was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the basketball player - known for having been romantically involved with Holly Robinson Peete - was splitting hit the internet Wednesday (September 16), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Shaquille’s phone number?”

“So very sad… Those 2 were so great as a couple. So cute together.”

Based on the facts (O'Neal spotted alone with a cute sweater), is there trouble in paradise or is it much ado about nothing?
