Iman Shumpert Loses It Over Teyana Taylor Dating Aaron Pierre – Now Fighting for Custody?

It looks like Iman Shumpert is struggling to handle Teyana Taylor moving on with her new love interest, actor Aaron Pierre. Ever since the couple went public, reports suggest that Iman has been losing control.

A Messy Divorce and Custody Battle

If you missed the drama surrounding their divorce in 2023, let’s catch you up—it was anything but smooth. Iman allegedly treated Teyana poorly during the split, attempting to gain full custody of their children and even demanding the return of gifts, jewelry, and an entire condo he had given her.

To make matters worse, Iman reportedly cheated on Teyana multiple times, making their separation even more complicated. But now that Teyana has moved on, Iman appears to be struggling to accept it. Sources claim that he is so upset that he is trying to take their children away from Teyana as an act of revenge.

Iman’s Child Support Controversy

Adding fuel to the fire, Iman recently went to court to lower his child support payments. Despite paying $8,000 a month for their daughters, Rue and Junie, Iman requested to pay even less. Teyana’s legal team, however, came prepared with receipts, proving that Iman spends far more than that—over $100,000 a month—on personal luxuries, including lavish trips, expensive dinners, and investments in his music and podcast.

Clearly, paying child support wasn’t putting a strain on his finances, making his attempt to reduce payments questionable.

The Truth About Iman’s Infidelity

During the court proceedings, Teyana also exposed Iman’s years of infidelity, revealing that he had been unfaithful even before they got married and during both of her pregnancies. She even accused him of sending pictures of himself with their newborn to women he was allegedly cheating with.

While Iman attempted to turn the tables by accusing Teyana of cheating, she quickly shut down the rumors, clarifying that she only dated other people when they were separated due to his repeated infidelity.

Past Cheating Scandals and Open Relationship Rumors

Iman’s reputation as a serial cheater wasn’t a secret, with many people discussing his behavior openly. Further controversy arose when rumors suggested that the couple had introduced other women into their relationship. Teyana had previously hinted at such situations, so the rumors didn’t come as a surprise. However, things took a dramatic turn when Teyana suddenly wiped her social media accounts, causing fans to speculate that something was seriously wrong. She later explained that she was frustrated about delays in her music video release, not because of Iman’s cheating.

Teyana’s Struggles in the Marriage

In an emotional interview, Teyana opened up about the emotional roller coaster of her marriage, revealing how Iman repeatedly begged her to stay after every cheating scandal, only to betray her again. She even tried to support him when his NBA career started slowing down, using her industry connections to help him land acting roles. Instead of appreciating her efforts, he reportedly continued to argue and mistreat her.

Although she initially filed for divorce in 2021, she gave the marriage another chance before ultimately deciding in early 2024 that she had had enough.

Teyana’s New Romance with Aaron Pierre

Since the breakup, Iman has been seen with multiple women, though none of his relationships appear to be serious. Meanwhile, Teyana remained quiet about her dating life—until now. She was recently spotted with actor Aaron Pierre, known for his role in the upcoming Lion King movie. The two appeared together at the 15% Pledge Event and the American Black Film Festival Gala, looking like a true power couple.

Fans couldn’t stop talking about their chemistry, especially after their heartwarming moment when Aaron won The Rising Star Award.

Iman’s Jealousy and Custody Battle

While fans are celebrating Teyana’s new romance, Iman is reportedly not taking it well. Sources claim he is extremely jealous and is considering taking legal action to gain custody of their children, allegedly as a way to retaliate against Teyana for moving on.

Teyana, however, has fired back with accusations that Iman hasn’t been the most responsible father. She claims that he has neglected their children at times, even forgetting to feed them. She also alleged that he smokes around the kids and has been under the influence while caring for them. One particularly shocking accusation was that Iman once sent their two young daughters alone in a ride-share car in Chicago while he traveled separately with his private driver.

Is This Just Jealousy?

Despite Teyana’s attempts to maintain a healthy co-parenting relationship, she claims that Iman frequently turns down extra time with their children due to his schedule. This raises questions about why he is suddenly fighting for custody now. Insiders believe his actions are fueled by jealousy over Teyana’s relationship with Aaron Pierre rather than genuine concern for his children’s well-being.

Final Thoughts

This situation is turning into a heated legal and emotional battle. As the drama unfolds, fans are taking sides—some supporting Teyana and her newfound happiness, while others are backing Iman.
