Iman Shumpert Allegedly Trying to Take Kids from Teyana Taylor Amid Her New Relationship

Teyana Taylor has officially moved on with actor Aaron Pierre, but it seems like her ex-husband, Iman Shumpert, is not handling it well. Ever since Teyana and Aaron made their relationship public, Iman has reportedly been spiraling, and now there are claims that he’s trying to take custody of their children out of spite. This situation is quickly turning into a messy legal battle, and fans are shocked by the drama unfolding between the former couple.

The Explosive Divorce Battle

Teyana Taylor filed for divorce from Iman Shumpert in 2023, and at first, she tried to keep things amicable. She assured the public that their split was mutual and due to them growing apart. However, once legal proceedings began, the situation took a turn for the worse. Iman quickly started to paint Teyana as the villain, making shocking demands in court that left fans in disbelief.

One of the most outrageous requests he made was for Teyana to return every single gift he had ever given her during their relationship—including jewelry and even a condo. This level of pettiness was shocking, but it didn’t stop there. Iman also attempted to claim a share of the royalties from Teyana’s music, even from projects she released before they met. Typically, divorce settlements only involve assets acquired during the marriage, so this move was seen as both greedy and absurd.

Child Support Dispute

If the demands for gifts and royalties weren’t enough, Iman also went to court to try and lower his child support payments. Despite already paying only $8,000 a month for their two daughters, Rue and Junie (which comes to around $4,000 per child), Iman still tried to convince the court that he couldn’t afford to pay that amount. He claimed that Teyana made nearly double what he did, stating that her monthly income was $93,587 compared to his $47,981.

However, Teyana’s legal team came prepared with receipts, proving that Iman spends lavishly on himself. Court documents revealed that he spends over $112,500 per month on personal expenses, including $14,000 on dining out, $19,000 on travel, and $6,000 on video production. This evidence made it clear that he had the means to support his children and simply didn’t want to.

Cheating Allegations and Scandals

While the divorce battle itself was messy, the real drama stems from the many cheating allegations against Iman. Teyana revealed that she had been considering divorce long before she officially filed because of Iman’s infidelity. She claimed that he had been unfaithful to her even before they got married and continued cheating throughout their relationship—including during both of her pregnancies.

One of the most disturbing allegations was that Iman had sent photos of himself and their two-month-old baby to women he was allegedly involved with. Despite his attempts to deny the accusations, Teyana shut down any claims that she had also been unfaithful, making it clear that the only time she entertained other relationships was when they were on a break due to his cheating.

Public Scrutiny and a Reputation for Infidelity

Iman’s reputation as a serial cheater has been widely discussed, with numerous reports of him being involved with other women while still married to Teyana. Rumors have circulated for years, and at one point, there was even speculation that Teyana and Iman were involved in a three-way relationship with another woman. Given that Teyana has previously been open about occasionally bringing a third party into their bedroom, these claims weren’t entirely surprising.

However, things escalated when Teyana suddenly wiped her Instagram and Twitter accounts clean, leading fans to speculate that Iman had been caught cheating again. When confronted, she denied the rumors, claiming that she was simply frustrated with delays in the release of her music video. Still, many believed that her social media disappearance was tied to issues in her marriage.

TikTok Drama and Hospitalization Rumors

In 2023, a TikTok user added fuel to the fire by acting out a dramatic scenario based on an alleged tip from one of Teyana’s former assistants. The user described a famous singer whose husband, a retired NBA player, was a serial cheater. According to the TikTok story, the husband’s infidelity had pushed the singer to the brink, leading her to be hospitalized due to heartbreak.

Although no names were mentioned, fans quickly connected the dots and assumed the story was about Teyana and Iman. The speculation grew even stronger when people recalled that Teyana had posted a photo of herself in the hospital a few months prior, stating that she had to cancel a performance because her body “shut down.”

This led many to believe that her hospitalization was actually due to stress from Iman’s cheating. However, Teyana quickly clapped back at the rumors, stating that she had been overworked and exhausted from performing. She also called out the TikToker for spreading false information, warning them to have their “court coin ready” for defamation.

Iman’s Alleged Revenge Tactics

Now that Teyana has moved on with actor Aaron Pierre, Iman is reportedly struggling to cope. According to new reports, he is attempting to take custody of their children in what many believe is a revenge move against Teyana. The idea that he would try to take their daughters away from their mother simply because she has a new man has left fans outraged.

Teyana, for her part, has not publicly addressed these latest allegations, but sources close to her claim that she is prepared to fight for her children. Given how well she has handled past legal battles, there’s little doubt that she will continue to stand her ground.

Final Thoughts

The situation between Teyana Taylor and Iman Shumpert is becoming increasingly toxic, and it’s clear that their divorce has been anything but amicable. From attempts to reclaim gifts and music royalties to accusations of infidelity and legal battles over child support, the drama seems never-ending. Now, with Iman allegedly trying to take their children out of spite, things have reached a new level of chaos.

Despite all the mess, Teyana appears to be thriving in her new relationship with Aaron Pierre. Fans are hoping that she can finally move forward and leave the negativity behind. As for Iman, only time will tell how far he’s willing to go in this battle—but if history has shown us anything, he’s not backing down anytime soon.
