Appearing on the “Club ShayShay” podcast, Cuban told host Shannon Sharpe that he talked Stewart into going to White Castle for a greasy slider to demonstrate her love for him.

“It was a pre-wedding test!” admitted the “Shark Tank” star.

“I thought to myself, ‘We’re going to White Castle and if you really love me, you’ll eat a White Castle burger!’ She did it,” he noted.

Meanwhile, Sharpe noted that Cuban had a “serious newspaper,” meaning he had been a billionaire for at least three years before he considered marrying Stewart.

Their paths crossed in 1997 at a gym in Dallas. Cuban was 39 at the time and Stewart was 25.

Five years later, Cuban and Stewart exchanged vows in a ceremony in Barbados in 2002, according to People. The following year, they welcomed their first child together, a daughter named Alexis. They later welcomed another daughter, Alyssa, in 2006 and a son, Jake, in 2010.

Cuban, whose current net worth is estimated at around $5.7 billion, revealed some details about his parenting style in 2014, stating that he is “not a dad who comes home with a ton of gifts” even though he could afford to be pampered .

In an interview with Business Insider, he revealed that he has set some rules for the children and advises them that they “have to be themselves” because they “can’t be the son or daughter of Mark Cuban or Tiffany Cuban.”

“I’m the dad who says, ‘Pick it up.’ Take it; put it in the sink. No, you have to earn it,” he said.

Stressing that he doesn’t want his children to feel like they’re owed something, Cuban said he wants them to identify and recognize what’s special about them.
