Shaquille O’Neal didn’t sugarcoat his response to a viral photo of he and his friend’s wife, Monique Martin.
The “Inside the NBA” personality addressed the image — which was posted by Martin on Instagram and shows Shaq hugging her from behind — in the comments section of sports media social account 4thQuarterTV.
“Shaq surprised another man’s wife with a visit, and her reaction was, ‘my favorite guy is back in town!’” the post said, including the image of Shaq and Martin.
“Yes my boys wife,” Shaq, 53, wrote in the comments section. “I can tell yall site is broke and need money nice try this is the reason yall always gonna b a broke blog.
“Thanks for making me more money though #dummies.”
Martin is a Chief Executive Director at Famous Ink Corp, a company specializing in sports management for pro athletes.
She is married to her husband, Ryan Rackleff, and the couple share three sons, according to Us Weekly.
“My favorite guy is back in town and of course he stopped by to see his favorite people!!” Martin captioned her post. “Class act always, which is why I love seeing that face pop in!!! 🏀🏀.”
“He stops by often to check in on us,” Martin reportedly wrote of O’Neal in the comments of section of her post — calling the Pro Basketball Hall of Famer “the biggest baby ever.”
It comes after Shaq shut down rumors that he was involved with Sophie Rain, a Christian OnlyFans star, after they were partying together in Las Vegas for her 21st birthday in September.
O’Neal and his ex-wife Shaunie Henderson share four children together: sons Shareef and Shaqir and daughters Amirah and Me’arah.
He has a daughter, Taahirah, from an earlier relationship with ex-girlfriend, Arnetta Yardbourgh.
Henderson’s son Myles, also from a previous relationship, later took on O’Neal’s surname.
