Keion Henderson and Shaunie O'Neal: They Officially Dated And Married
Henderson has found love again!
Basketball Wives star Shaunie O'Neal took to Instagram on July 6 to wish Keion a happy birthday with a sweet post that also confirmed their relationship.
In her lengthy love-laden caption, O'Neal gushed about Keion, calling him, "my safe place where I can authentically grow without judgment." She appreciates how he loves her and her children unconditionally. They have other posts of each other being adorable as well.
It is known that the pair connected in 2019 when Shaunie attended one of Keion's conferences. In their recent podcast The Groow Zone, Keion and his wife Shaunie touch upon how the pastor managed to impress her.
As it turned out, Shaunie originally thought that it would be "boring" dating the pastor whom she met through a mutual friend in 2020. It was Keion who then invited her to watch him preach in San Bernardino, but instead, the pair connected at his hotel lobby in LA and ended up spending hours in a restaurant where they had gone for a bite,
“We had this great conversation that ended up being five or six hours to where we got kicked out of the regular restaurant into the lobby,” she revealed. After that, Shaunie invented a plan to test whether the pastor was judgemental by ordering two co*cktails, but she said he passed it.
"I didn’t think that you would be fun. I didn’t think that your lifestyle really allowed you to be the kind of fun that I like. I want to go dance with my friends at The Dime. I just thought that you’d be like, ‘Oh no, that’s of the world,’” she shared on the podcast, to which he replied, "actually wanted someone who understood that my whole life wasn’t lived in a sanctuary. Somebody who could let me access that side of me without feeling judged. So, meeting you helped me to actually be balanced and be ok with balance.”
Shaunie was married to her ex-husband Shaquille O'Neal from 2002 to 2011. The duo shares four children — Amirah, Shaquir, Shareef, and Me'arah. She also has a son, Miles, from a previous relationship. Shaunie and Shaq also have a cordial relationship because of their children. Shaq was also present at Shaunie's wedding to Keion, which took place in May 2022.
