Shaquille O’Neal is known for making headlines and entertaining fans. He has recently found himself at the center of attention once again. A social media account named ‘Daily Loud’ on ‘My Mixtapez’ shared posted some photos of Shaq with a girl in a bikini. Among these images were intimate shots shared between Shaq and the woman. It looked like Shaq was enjoying himself on a vacation.

“52-year-old Shaquille O’Neal spotted travelling with his 21-year-old girlfriend in Spain.” Daily Loud captioned the posts on X (formerly Twitter).

However, the community post on X revealed the truth behind the pictures, and it turns out that the leaked photos of Shaq and the girl were from 2019, and there was never any confirmation that the girl was indeed Shaquille’s girlfriend. The account owner who posted the rumor seemed to benefit from it as the post garnered 16.3 million views in just 24 hours.

“This photo is from 2019, when Shaq was 47. It was during his time in Spain when he was DJing at Foreverland. That female was never confirmed to be his girlfriend as well.” the community post read.

The woman in the images has been identified as Danielle Dilworth, a 27-year-old model who has been seen traveling with the Big Diesel at several locations.
