Shaunie O'Neal cashes in on Shaq's Infidelity

The love story that was Shaunie and Shaquille O'Neal is no more. In 2007, Shaq filed for divorce when he discovered that his wife had been carrying on an affair. But, when he was traded to Phoenix, the couple fell back in love. The second love did not last long and Shaunie O'Neal found herself filing for divorce.

Wed in 2002, it appeared that the O'Neals had a great marriage. The couple had dated for years and they had three children together. Expressing his love in front of the entire city of Los Angeles, the two were married during a Laker game. The following year, Kobe Bryant was revealed to be sleeping with underage women. He then implied that Shaq was too.

At the time, his statements were written off. But, Shaunie has revealed that he has been dating Vanessa Lopez. They dated throughout his time with the Miami Heat. Now that she is divorcing her husband of eight years, Shaunie O'Neal is likely to be left with nothing. The only way that she can receive anything from the estate of Shaquille O'Neal was if he was caught cheating. Upon discovering his relationship with Lopez, Shaunie proposed that they team up to take him down.

There were rumors of Shaq harassing Lopez ever since their breakup. Once his wife discovered this, she felt that they could come together to take Shaq down. It was never said if she decided to team up with the wife of her ex-boyfriend, but she has her lawyers ready. Both women seem prepared to take on Big Diesel. Despite the rock relationship between the married couple, Shaunie did tell Shaq that she loved him after he said something nice to him. That will not be enough to save their marriage, though. Shaunie O'Neal blamed Miami on the death blow to their once-happy marriage, but at least she can profit off of it.
