Shanna Moakler recalled the moment when her now-ex Oscar De La Hoya asked her to abruptly leave the home they shared when they were still a couple in 2000.
Shanna Moakler spoke about her baby daddy on the podcast.
While at their Bel Air mansion, the beauty queen, 48, said she was watching the 2000 Latin Grammys when the boxer, 50, appeared on the red carpet with Millie Corretjer, whom he married in 2001. Moakler, who shares daughter Atiana De La Hoya with her ex, thought the athlete was on a business trip.
"We all looked at each other like Oscar De La Hoya's on the red carpet. Like, 'What the f--- is he doing there?'" she said of her and her mom's reaction. "What is he doing there? Why am I not there? Like, what's happened? There he is holding hands with his now ex-wife Millie."
Oscar De La Hoya and Shanna Moakler share daughter Atiana.
"The next day they had a lawyer come to the house and say, you and the baby need to move out," she continued on the "Dumb Blonde" podcast. "And so I went and I met him like the next day and he goes, 'You already took me to court for child support and I'm not happy about that. And if you sue me for alimony, I'm not gonna see you or the baby until she's 16 years old.' It was like, 'No way would you do that.' And he goes, 'I have more money than God... don't be too hard on me.' And he left."
Oscar apparently didn't see his daughter until she was 16 years old.

Their relationship eventually didn't work out as it was plagued by infidelity, among other issues.
“His drinking was always an issue for me,” Moakler said, “because he really does become a different person when he drinks. Even now when I look back on it, I didn’t want to believe it…even though I was living it.”
