Teyana Taylor has filed for divorce from Iman Shumpert after seven years of marriage, according to TMZ. After announcing their separation in September, Taylor filed for divorce in January 2023.
The legal documents obtained by TMZ reveal a tumultuous marriage, as Taylor alleges that Shumpert was emotionally and mentally abusive, and became insecure about her success despite his own career as a basketball star. She further claimed that he was treating her cruelly and displaying extreme narcissistic behavior throughout their marriage.
In addition, Taylor accused Shumpert of infidelity and claimed that he had been arrested several times, including for driving under the influence and felony marijuana possession. She also alleged that he once crashed her vehicle and fled the scene to avoid another DUI arrest.
Though the couple initially reconciled at Shumpert's insistence, their reunion was short-lived as he allegedly continued to be inconsistent and became involved in another extra-marital affair. Since their split, Shumpert has spent minimal time with their two children, according to the suit. Taylor is requesting temporary and permanent primary physical custody of the children, plus joint legal custody and child support.
Taylor rose to fame at 15 years old as a dancer and has since made a name for herself in the music industry as a singer-songwriter. She's also a successful actress, having recently been nominated for a Gotham Independent Film Award. Shumpert is a former NBA star who won an NBA Championship with the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2016, and won season 30 of Dancing with the Stars with professional dancer Daniella Karagach in 2021.
