After their recent picture made rounds online, Instagram user _1.filly or Maria Ozuna is rumored to be Shaquille O’Neal’s girlfriend. Maria deleted the picture from the original account and has refrained from adding to the situation.
The rumors began when Maria posted her picture on her account _1.filly. The picture showcased only half of Shaq’s body, and the caption read, “Unapologetically us…Can ya’ll guess who feet?” The photo displayed the pair in Maria’s bedroom as the former basketball player hugged his alleged girlfriend.
Soon, thousands of users liked and commented on the post, with most expressing surprise at Shaq’s new relationship. However, Maria and Shaq decided to keep silent on the matter in hopes of settling the matter.

However, netizens were adamant about discovering more about their relationship after noticing a hookah beside their bed. After deleting the post, Maria acted like the incident never left their private sphere.
Soon, Maria started receiving questions about her connection with Shaq after she posed for a new post in the same bedroom as the previous post. The user also noticed the hookah pipe, which further proved her identity.
They didn’t hold back with hateful comments as one of the users wrote, “She’s currently being exposed all over the Internet for sleeping with him. Nothing but a fake phony fraud putting on a front for God. I got the pics. Can’t wait to hear what she has to say lol.“
Apart from being Shaq’s rumored partner, _1.filly has a career in music with her latest singles!
The Instagram user gained a huge social influence after her picture with Shaq and currently has over 199k followers on Instagram, which she has used to promote her music.
Maria has uploaded several single music videos through her YouTube account, including Alright and What Am I To Do, which has over three thousand views and likes. Likewise, she has been sharing posts dedicated to women’s empowerment for a long time.
Regardless, given their apparent age gap, her recent meetup with Shaq has garnered criticism towards the duo. The former NBA player is 52 years old, while his partner seems to be in her 30s to early 40s.
Likewise, many claimed that Maria was after Shaq’s money soon after she deleted her post and sarcastically added, “She deleted it? 😭 Shaq must take back the $40 and his Walmart shoes.“
Netizens might joke about user _1.filly’s life, as Shaq has a history of dating and leaving young women. Many have commented on her height, claiming that Maria can fit in one of Shaq’s palms.
On the other hand, fans claim that the relationship might be more than casual. But none of them have confirmed the matter, giving way to more rumors, as one of the Twitter users wrote, “Bro dating his daughter daughter lmao.“
