Just when you thought that the Shaquille - Shaunie O'Neal divorce saga couldn't get any juicier - we've got more. We  are now hearing reports that Shaquille O'Neal may have fathered a child by one of his girlfriends.

For weeks, We had been receiving unconfirmed reports that Shaq had a pregnant girlfriend on the side. Now it appears that we have evidence of the Miami center's soon-to-be baby's mother.

That evidence came from one of our very own readers. One of our faithful sent in the above photo which we're told shows Shaq and his soon-to-be baby's mother. The photo, which was taken before Shaq and Shaunie officially separated, shows the basketball superstar without his wedding band and hugging a pregnant woman.

Expect this new  bombshell to have a devastating impact on the 7-foot NBA superstar's finances. We spoke with a person familiar with the terms to Shaq and Shaunie's prenuptial agreement. And according to that individual, the pre-nup gives Shaunie a significant legal windfall if she can prove that Shaq committed adultery

The insider explained to us, "The agreement provides that if [Shaq] were found to be unfaithful during the marriage, Shaunie's entitled to significantly more than she otherwise would be." The insider continued, "Typically, infidelity is difficult to prove because the cheating spouse can always deny it. And [Shaq's] most public act of infidelity, with [Superhead], occurred before he and Shaunie were married ... But if she can show that [Shaq] has a child on the way, he would be in trouble."
