Shaquille O’Neal is setting the record straight on whether he’s romantically involved with OnlyFans star Sophie Rain.
Rumors began circulating last month when Rain, 21, shared a photo of her and O’Neal, 53, posing together while out and about. O’Neal was all smiles as he sat beside Rain, who flashed her middle finger for the camera. “Look who i ran into on my birthday!!” she wrote via X at the time.
After a creator said that the age gap between O’Neal and Rain is “a little uncomfy feeling,” the basketball legend replied via Instagram. “I don’t [date] that young but I will date your mom and give u a brother,” he wrote on Monday, September 29.
In an exclusive statement to Us Weekly, Rain echoed O’Neal’s sentiment and shared that the twosome are “just friends.”
