Shannon Sharpe delved into his personal life on a recent episode of ‘Club Shay Shay’. He opened up about why he doesn’t sleep over at his partner’s houses, sharing two traumatic experiences that he had early in his life. Facing life-threatening danger is what led him to never sleep over at another woman’s house.
“By this time, I see the door handle turning… The door swings open, and a dude got that chopper. Lord have mercy. I say ‘My man, is this your people?’. He says ‘Yeah, two years’… I said ‘My man, my bad. I ain’t know’. I put my shirt back on. He got me shook…”
“But I’m thinking in the back of my mind – ‘Damn, my homeboy let him get the drop on me!’. His partner had the [gun] out on him. That’s why he ain’t tell me nothing. I didn’t know this later. One came in through the front, other came in through the back…”
“We’re leaving, I say ‘Goddamn, I left my watch and my bracelet… I’m finna go get that’. I went right back, and opened the door. ‘My man, let me get that watch and bracelet off…’. He handed it to me. We’re pulling off, they get to fighting.”
“She runs out the house, robe torn. ‘Don’t leave me!’. She jumped in the trunk with us and left… The first time, I had just got drafted. Came back, and I didn’t want to drive all the way home because I didn’t want to wake my grandmother up…”
“I asked ‘Are you seeing anybody?’. She said no. I asked ‘Do you mind if I spend the night?’. ‘No’… After a while, BOOM! The door flies off the hinges. I just got drafted to the NFL, I’m 6’2″, 21 years old and I’m prime athletic. I jump up… I look at him, I know who he is.”
“He says ‘Sharpe, I’m so proud of you!’… I said ‘I ain’t know!’. He said ‘Sharpe, I got no problem with you, but I’m tired of this B lying’. I’m putting my shoes on, and I said ‘Me too’. When the dude pulled the chopper on me, that was 1993. I have not closed my eyes at a woman’s house since…”
Shannon Sharpe made a decision early in his life to make sure that he would stay safe. Whether it was right or wrong, no one can argue against the decision, as it was one that came from two very traumatic and difficult experiences.
Shannon Sharpe’s Dating History Is Very Secretive
Sharpe has never been married in his life but has dated several women. Sharpe shares a son, Kiari, with his ex-girlfriend Erika Evans. He also has two daughters, although neither their identities nor the identities of their mothers have ever been made public.
Sharpe dated a fitness instructor named Katy Kellner for several years, although the timeline of their relationship isn’t known to the public. Sharpe was also briefly linked to Nicole Murphy, the ex-wife of legendary actor Eddie Murphy. While the two never officially dated, Sharpe did publically express his interest in her when he posted a picture of the two of them at a gym in 2017.
Of course, most recently, Shannon Sharpe was embroiled in a controversy, as he accidentally went live on Instagram while having a sexual encounter with an unknown woman by the name of Michelle. Initially, Sharpe claimed he was hacked, but later changed his story and revealed that he had accidentally gone live.
ESPN did not reprimand Sharpe for this incident, as it seemed like an accident. The entire situation went viral, with former ESPN anchor Michelle Beadle jokingly clarifying that she was not the woman in the video, who was also named Michelle.
Sharpe keeps his personal life very private, so it is rare for him to share stories such as the one above. But clearly, the experiences he had shaped his romantic life, and had a deep impact on him.
