Laura Govan Explains Why Gilbert Arenas Lawsuit Doesn’t Worry Her And What Their Current Status Is.

As if you didn’t know, Basketball Wives LA will be debuting in a few weeks. Laura Govan (ex-fiancee of Gilbert Arenas and sister of Gloria Govan) has already started clearing the air on what she feels are a few misconceptions about her as well as sharing her thoughts on Shaunie accusing her of an affair with Shaq,  Shaq’s foot size and her current relationship withGilbert and if his move to block her from appearing on the show affected her. Loop 21  got the exclusive:

On clearing the air:

For me, I’m not here to clear up sh*t. If I haven’t done anything, I have nothing to clear up. I want people to understand the dynamic of what I actually went through. I’ve never been in the media. It’s always been someone else has the upper hand on that. This was my time to set the record straight on my relationship with Gilbert, my relationship with the Shaunie/Shaquille stuff. It’s been three years. We still talking about that dumb sh-t? And he’s moved on and has 100-past relationships, plus he has a solid girlfriend now. Get your life together! Get the hell out of here!

 On if She had an affair with Shaq and thoughts on Shaunie:

Hell no! Have you seen his feet? How you gon’ sleep with somebody who has feet like that? Like, I’ve seen him in his sandals. I love Shaquille to death but I would never get down with Shaquille. I know him that’s why it’s hard for me… I think it’s funny. I can never say no with a straight face because that’s absolutely hilarious. And it’s funny because I feel like when I’ve seen him or been around him, we just have a good time. We’re like brother and sister. And if you don’t pick up on that dynamic then…

I just think that Shaunie [O’Neal] had her own agenda and did things for the show. And it is what it is. But at this point, three years later, I don’t want to talk about him. Talk about somebody else. Talk about somebody I actually like.

On her current relationship with Gilbert:

I talk to him all the time. He’s still the father of my children. And we have a great relationship. It’s funny because we’ll sit and we’re talking and I’ll be like, “Damn, dog. You’re suing me like a hundred times. Like, what’s up with that?” But, we’re cleaning it up. It just takes time because he’s filed so many goddamn things against me. And now we’re at the point where we’re just cleaning stuff up. We’re just looking to really, really be good parents to our children.

I don’t think about nothing until something happens. Since he just filed the motion, that doesn’t mean that it’s happened. Do I think it’s still going to air? Of course I do. Do I think I’m still going to get to say what I want to say? Of course I will. He’s not going to stop that. I just think that at this time I’m just focusing on now–this is my life. So it’s my time; not his time. He had his time. He’s doing his time. You know what I mean?

Laura also added this little tidbit about her current dating situation:

 It might be Gilbert girl, who knows now? I’m not sure…I mean, I do still like the ni**a. …We’re doing good though

Yeahhhhhhhh. Cannot WAIT!!
