On a podcast in april, O’Neal took the blame for why his marriage ended, telling ‘The Pivot Pocast’ that he ‘messed up’.

‘I was just being greedy,’ he told the show. ‘I had the perfect situation. Wife was finer than a mug, kept giving me babies, still finer than a mug.

‘I had it all, and I don’t make excuses — I know I messed up.’
