Teyana Taylor has fired back at her estranged husband, Iman Shumpert, in an ongoing court battle, accusing him of irresponsible behavior, including smoking marijuana and being under the influence while caring for their two daughters, Junie and Rue.
According to court documents, Taylor claimed that Shumpert’s response to her divorce petition contained “blatantly and knowingly false statements. Taylor, in her new motion, countered Shumpert’s claims, stating that his conduct, including smoking marijuana and being under the influence while caring for the children, is well-publicized.
In her initial divorce filing in January 2023, Taylor accused Shumpert of being an incredibly jealous partner who frequently picked fights. She sought primary custody of their daughters, alleging that they appeared disheveled and were not properly fed while in Shumpert’s care. Taylor further claimed that Shumpert was not attentive to the children’s needs and displayed a “reckless disregard for their safety and well-being.”
The petition also asserted that Shumpert asked for significant time with the children but would often leave them with his parents or others, showing a lack of genuine interest in parenting. Taylor accused Shumpert of being irresponsible with the girls, especially when angry.
Additionally, Taylor claimed that Shumpert moved out of their marital home, leaving her and the children in a residence under construction for the past three years due to Shumpert’s failure to contribute to the agreed-upon renovations.
Months after filing for divorce, Taylor and Shumpert attempted reconciliation through marriage counseling. However, the reconciliation efforts failed, leading to a resumption of the divorce proceedings.
In response to the divorce, Shumpert denied that it was in the best interest of the children to live primarily with their mother. He also denied being irresponsible with the children and moved into a separate home, claiming it as his sole property. The divorce battle between Teyana Taylor and Iman Shumpert remains ongoing.
