'If the opportunity were to pop up today, and if I saw Carmen, I would probably ask her to marry me again,' the former Chicago Bulls star told the paper. 'I have been debating about that the last couple years. I would ask her to marry me again.

Rodman said that he still sees Electra 'every once in a while,' but they 'don’t really' talk about their time as a married couple from 1998 thru 1999, sticking to chatting about 'everyday things.

'We have a real relationship,' he said.

Speaking with Oprah Winfrey's OWN network four years back, Electra explained how mercurial her marriage was to the enigmatic basketball star. She said, 'We understood each other - our relationship was very passionate, so when it was good, it was amazing. And when it was bad, it was the worst.'
