Shaquille O'Neal did not make the guest list for Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's massive Madison Square Garden wedding, but he is not holding a grudge.
The NBA legend playfully called out the newlyweds after learning that his friend Charles Barkley had received an invitation to the July 3 ceremony. Despite being left out of the 1,000-person celebration, O'Neal offered Swift and Kelce the same heartfelt wish he shared following their engagement.
O'Neal addressed the apparent wedding snub while attending Fanatics Fest at the Javits Center in New York City on Friday, July 17.
When PEOPLE Magazine asked whether he and Barkley had received invitations, the four-time NBA champion offered a deadpan response directly to the camera. "No. Thanks, Taylor. Thanks, Travis," O'Neal joked.
However, the 54-year-old quickly set aside the teasing to offer the newlyweds a four-word blessing. "May it last forever," he said.
