Shaquille O'Neal Files for Divorce From Wife Shaunie

By Diana Mimon, About.com


September 2007

Five years of marriage went down the drain as Shaquille O'Neal made the decision to file for divorce from his wife (and mother of his four children) Shaunie, according to People.

A petition filed by Shaq's legal team read, "The marriage between the parties is irretrievably broken." It was also made known that Shaunie had signed a pre-nup, which they are planning and hoping to keep under lock and key.

Shaq rakes in $20 million a year - and that's just for playing basketball. Factor in the endorsements and this guy is worth a serious amount of money. Let's just hope that Shaunie is smart enough to hire herself a very good lawyer of her own.
