“Every day, you and I either call each other or text each other at 11:11 and we say that we love each other,” the pastor shares. “And so I thought today, that on 11:11 at 11/11 I would do something that’ll make you know that I love you more than you love me.”
The newly engaged couple can be seen on video, he is standing up looking down at her as she sat in front of a table decorated with flowers. Henderson gets down on one knee and asked the question.
“OMG,” O’Neal screams.
Repeating “Yes!” the couple happily watches fireworks together.
Reflecting on the moment with People Magazine, O’Neal shares that nobody has proposed to her on one knee, despite being married before.
“Honestly I’m the person that thought I would never in my lifetime experience a love like this,” the mother of five says.
Speaking on the pastor’s character, the Basketball Wives star shares what kind of man he is.

“Keion is an extraordinary man of God. He’s wise, he’s supportive, he’s so loving and attentive” the 46-year-old says. “He loves me and my children in a way that has changed my life and my heart.”
From the years of 2002 to 2011, she was previously married to four-time NBA champion, Shaquille O’Neal . They share five children together. Henderson is the founder, CEO, and senior pastor of The Lighthouse Church located in Houston, Texas.
