Our quick-hit commentary with Shaunie O’Neal on various issues and scenes that come up inBasketball Wives continues. Below, Shaunie talks about sharing the world (and the screen) with her boyfriend, Marlon Yates. She also talks about her sense of the state of Jennifer Williams‘ relationship…
Regarding her comment on Sunday’s episode about not wanting to get into anything “too serious” with Marlon…
“I would now put it in the serious category. I think that we just took it slow, which is something that was real important to me. I think that now I can say that we’re completely exclusive.”
On relating to Jenn’s marriage problems…
“I think everybody’s situation is a bit different but I felt for Jenn just because you could feel and see the wear and tear that her relationship and her all around unhappiness was taking on her. It was really difficult to just watch. There’s nothing you can do to help and nothing you can do but just be there and be supportive and that’s what we all tried to do. You just want to shake her and go, “Jenn, I don’t know what you wanna do or what your decision is about this but could you just make a decision? If it’s to stay, stay if that’s what you want. If it’s to go, go. But whatever it is, just make a decision for you so we get to see you smile and see you happy at some point.”
Regarding why Jenn won’t let go…
You just feel like you got into this thing because: A) You love this man, B) You got in it for the long haul, you wanted to make it work and be a success at being a wife in a marriage. I totally understood that and it can be embarrassing. You just don’t want anybody to judge you, which of course everybody does. I totally understood where she was coming from, but at some point you gotta think about yourself and kind of forget everybody’s opinion or what they might think or assume or whatever. You gotta get you together.
