The internet erupted when it was announced that social media phenom Brittany Renner had dinner with Shaquille O’Neal.
After working as an analyst for NBA TV in Denver last week, Shaq, 51, took a break from NBA Finals coverage.
And on Tuesday night, after arriving back in Los Angeles, he was spotted hanging out with Renner, 31, at the Beverly Hills Hotel.
According to TMZ Sports, the Los Angeles Lakers icon and the Instagram model ate dinner together and parted ways approximately two hours later.
The two, however, aren’t thought to be in a romantic relationship and merely got together to catch up, according to reports.
According to reports, Renner has dated numerous NBA stars in the past.
James Harden, Ben Simmons, and Jamal Murray are apparently among them.
Prior to the two going through a difficult split, she also gave birth to P. J. Washington, a forward for the Charlotte Hornets.
Brittany played soccer for Jackson State University from 2008 to 2010 and is a former athlete herself.
In 2010, she guided JSU to its first-ever SWAC soccer title while winning the competition’s MVP award.
Since then, the Mississippi native has flourished as a fitness influencer and star, garnering an impressive 4.7 million Instagram followers.
Due of Renner’s celebrity, she has been on TV shows including American Soul and The Haves and the Have Nots.
She also appeared as a model in the Bad for Me music video by rapper Kevin Gates.
Judge This Cover, a book written by Brittany, was published in 2018 and gave readers an inside look into her life.
Three years later, she was invited back to her former mater by the then-Tigers head coach Deion Sanders and given the opportunity to give advice to the JSU football team about dating athletes.
According to TMZ Sports, Renner recently signed on for the upcoming season of Basketball Wives, which is executive produced by O’Neal’s ex-wife Shaunie.
Shaq and Shaunie ended their nine-year relationship in 2011.
They got married in the Beverly Hills Hotel, which is interesting because O’Neal and Renner had a casual meal there earlier this week.
