I know, the most surprising thing about this news is probably that it didn’t happen sooner, but after nearly two years of dating, Shaq and Hoopz have reportedly called it quits.
You have to admit these two had a pretty good run for a reality TV star who competed for a chance to date Flavor Flav and a top NBA athlete. There were even rumors that the two had eloped back in November but now the word is Shaq is ready to move on so he put Hoopz out of his house accordingly—although not without the aid of security.
According to sources, Shaq broke the news to Hoopz two weeks ago and when he did,
“Hoopz got emotional, and Shaq had to protect himself [from a lawsuit] . . . so he left the house and had [his security] help Hoopz gather her things and leave.”
That is not a good way to end a relationship.
There’s no telling what inspired Shaq to abruptly call it quits with his 28-year old boo, but not long after he was spotted in Vegas celebrating his 40th birthday and, of course, he had a new chick on his arm.
