Keion and Felecia’s divorce didn’t stop the Lighthouse Church pastor from remaining in Kate’s life. In June 2021, he shared several adorable black-and-white photos of himself and his child on Instagram, where they both shined in front of the camera, writing, “Having somewhere to go is home. Having someone to love is family. And having both is a blessing.”

Like Keion, Shaunie has to stay in touch with her ex, Shaq, because of their children. During their marriage, the famous exes raised five children — Myles, 25 (whom Shaunie had from a prior relationship), Shareef, 22, Amirah, 21, Shaqir, 19, and Me'arah, 16.
"We're cool," Shaunie recently shared with E! News about her dynamic with Shaq. "We've been co-parenting for 12 years, and we had to get to some space where we were able to communicate and remain friends. It's not this talk everyday thing, but we come together for the kids, and we respect each other's space and the places that we are in."

Shaunie and Shaq’s relationship is so tight that the NBA icon snagged an invite to his ex-wife’s wedding. During her chat with E!, Shaunie said Shaq asked if he could come to her big day while they were attending their daughter’s sweet 16th birthday party days before the wedding.
“She turned 16 in May right before the wedding, so we were at the birthday party together, and he's like, ‘Well, am I invited to the wedding?'” Shaunie recalled. “And I was like, ‘Of course you are.'"

She continued: "And I'm rolling my eyes like, ‘I mean, you are, but do you really have to come?' But I mean, that's our banter, right? I know people will take that and run with it. But that's been our banter."
Despite the “courtesy invite,” Shaq didn’t attend Shaunie and Keion’s wedding. In fact, he’s never met his ex-wife’s new husband, although Keion confirmed he’s not intentionally avoiding Shaq.
To see who did attend Shaunie and Keion’s wedding, watch the three-part VH1 special Shaunie and Keion’s Destination “I Do” on Mondays at 9 p.m. The first episode premiered on Nov. 28.
