Shaquille O’Neal & Laticia Rolle

When it comes to brute strength and degree of dominance in the National Basketball Association, Shaquille O’Neal set the bar high for the league’s future big men. The Hall of Famer finally hung up his size 22 sneakers after a memorable 19-year career in 2011, collecting four championship rings in the process. He won three of those championships with late-great superstar Kobe Bryant in Los Angeles, and one more during his brief stint with the Heat in Miami, Florida, in which state he met and fell in love with model and fashion entrepreneur, Laticia Rolle.

Laticia’s personal life stayed well under the radar before rumors of her relationship the baller started to appear in the gossip columns in 2014. Sadly, their relationship eventually came to an end in 2018. Shaq continues to work as an NBA analyst while Laticia has been traveling the world and writing about it on her blog.
