Teyana Taylor didn’t just walk away from her marriage to Iman Shumpert—she strutted out with a war chest of prime real estate, high-end wheels, and a seven-figure payday that cements her financial independence.
After eight years of matrimony, the singer, actress, and all-around powerhouse has officially untied the knot with the former NBA champ, securing four luxury homes valued at over $10 million, a fleet of premium rides—including a $300,000 Maybach, a $70,000 Mercedes Sprinter, and a fully equipped tour bus—and a lump-sum seven-figure payout, according to reports from the Express Tribune.
And that’s just the warm-up act. Taylor retains full ownership of her businesses, ensuring her empire remains firmly in her grasp. Meanwhile, Shumpert will be shelling out $8,000 a month in child support for their two daughters, Junie and Rue, while also covering their private school tuition. It’s a clean break on paper, but the backstory? That’s where things get messy.
Taylor first confirmed the separation on Instagram, spinning it as an amicable split between two former lovers turned best friends. “To be 1000% clear, ‘infidelity’ ain’t one of the reasons for our departure,” she wrote, emphasizing their continued partnership in co-parenting and business. But court documents tell a more dramatic tale—one of jealousy, insecurity, and alleged emotional turmoil.
According to Taylor’s divorce filing, Shumpert couldn’t handle the spotlight shifting from him to his wife, allegedly bristling when photographers asked him to step aside so Taylor could shine solo. She accused him of “cruel treatment” and “extreme narcissistic behavior,” painting a picture of a man unraveling under the weight of his own ego. Shumpert’s legal team fired back, denying the accusations and pushing to reframe the split as simply an “irretrievably broken bond.”
While the ink on their divorce papers dried in June 2024, the details of the settlement have only now surfaced. Meanwhile, Taylor isn’t exactly lying low—she’s been spotted cozying up to Mufasa star Aaron Pierre, igniting rumors of a new flame. If this breakup was a battle, Taylor walked away with the spoils, and she’s wasting no time moving on to her next chapter.
