O’Neal married Shaunie Nelson on December 26, 2002. The couple have four children (Shareef, Amirah, Shaqir, and Me’arah, ages ranging from 8 to 2, in order), and Nelson has one child from a previous relationship (Myles, 11). O’Neal also has a daughter from a previous relationship (Taahirah, 12), making him the father of six. The family currently resides on Star Island in Miami, Florida.

On September 4, 2007, O’Neal filed for divorce from his wife Shaunie in a Miami-Dade Circuit court. According to the petition, “The marriage between the parties is irretrievably broken”, and that Shaunie was “secretive about her assets … particularly with respect to certain properties owned or titled in either [her] name alone or in other entities” and requests that the court require Shaunie to give a “correct accounting of all money, funds, stocks, bonds, and other securities (including bearer securities)” Shaunie later said that the couple had gotten back together and that the divorce was withdrawn.

On November 10, 2009, Va’Shaundya (Shaunie) decided to give the divorce one more chance, filling an intent to divorce due to irreconcilable differences.  Read more here
