Why did Shaquille O'Neal Regret Divorcing His wife?

Previously, TUKO.co.ke reported on O'Neal's marriage to his ex-wife and what led to its end.

The two married in 2002, split in 2009 and divorced in 2011.

O'Neal said that his ex-wife did everything she was supposed to do, but he never played his part in making the marriage work.

The 50-year-old said that he was taking the blame for their marriage ending, although he declined to say what he was doing that led to him and his ex-wife and the mother of his four children ending their marriage.
