Shaunie O'Neal and Pastor Keion Henderson Engaged

Basketball Wives star Shaunie O’Neal and her boyfriend Pastor Keion Henderson are now engaged!

According to PEOPLE, O’Neal’s rep confirmed that the couple got engaged on November 11 after nearly two years of dating.

The couple originally met through a mutual friend and began dating in February 2020.

This was one of the most magical and special days of my life, being with someone that had never officially been proposed to — like no down on one knee and asked ‘will you marry me’ moment,” Shaunie said in a statement to PEOPLE. “Everything about that night was incredibly amazing.”

“I wouldn’t change a single thing. As a matter of fact, I wish I could experience it over and over again. Keion is an extraordinary man of God. He’s wise, he’s supportive, he’s so loving and attentive. He loves me and my children in a way that has changed my life and my heart. He makes me want to be better every day. And I pray that I do the same for him. This love is FOREVER and I’m honored and overjoyed to do forever with him,” she continued.

“I’ve never been more loved than I am right now,’ said Henderson in a statement of his own.

“I’ve never met a more supportive person in my life. There is an inseparable connection that is undeniable between Shaunie and I,” he said. “She simply brings out the best in me, and wants the best for me. Any love that accomplishes all of that naturally is worth pursuing. Our engagement is the beginning of a new day.”

The couple got engaged at 11:11 p.m. on 11/11, a number that holds deep meaning for the couple.

The number “has played a significant role throughout their relationship since the day they met as they call, text or pray together daily at that time each day without fail. Thus it became the perfect day to cement their love,” shared O’Neal’s rep.

Henderson proposed with a custom 4.22-karat diamond ring with an 18-karat white gold band.

After the proposal, the couple enjoyed a fireworks display.
