In the year 2010, Shaquille O’Neal made headlines not only because of his game but also his relationships. Being one of the most dominant players does come with a lot of following and love from fans.

At the time, there were many rumors about his relationship with philanthropist and author Gloria Govan’s sister, Laura Govan. In the past, there has been much speculation about their relationship, especially when Shaq was still married.

In addition, the Basketball Wives head honcho made it pretty clear she would not be attending Gloria’s wedding. She explained to an interviewer that: “No, I don’t think so,” she laughed. “No, I don’t think I’ll be going to that.”

The feud continued for a very long time, as many statements were made at one time or another. It took Gloria two years to defend her sister against these accusations. During an interview with CNN in 2010, Shaunie was asked to speak about her upcoming show, the Basketball Wives.

During the question-and-answer session, she was asked about her relationship with Gloria, who is the wife of former Phoenix Suns star Matt Barnes. She answered the question in an interesting way.
