Nikki Taylor, mother and manager of Teyana Taylor, is responding to recent reports about the assets her daughter received from her divorce settlement from Iman Shumpert.
Although the former couple’s divorce was finalized last July, several blogs ran the story, seemingly and inaccurately suggesting it was settled this week.
In a statement shared by The Breakfast Club co-host Loren LoRosa, Nikki Taylor questioned how details from a sealed case had suddenly become public.
“It’s awful strange that the case is sealed, from a divorce that was finalized in July 1, 2024; but all of this information as to what she allegedly got is public this week?” Taylor said in a statement.
“What about the other party received? Let’s be crystal clear, BOTH parties walked with the properties, vehicles and businesses that they obtained separately,” she added.
On Thursday, not long after her initial comments on the divorce were shared, Taylor left a comment under a recent Shade Room post about her comments, clarifying her original statement.
“I see some of my comment was left out, causing it to be misconstrued. I posted a comment elsewhere. However I was extremely clear in my comment. Somehow people are still not clear that the story is BS.,” she wrote.
She continued: “Bottom line is, this case is sealed. Therefore, information like this can only be put out there from either of the parties involved. Weirdly, this information just surfaced out of nowhere almost a year later after the divorce has been finalized since July 1, 2024. The bottom line is, the only thing awarded to both parties was what they paid for out of their own pockets. She walked with what she paid for on her own and he walked with what he paid for. That’s it, that’s all. I hope this is clear now. End of report.”
TheJasmineBrand first reported in June 2024 that Teyana, 34, retained four marital properties worth over $10 million, along with a seven-figure payment from the former NBA player.
Shumpert reportedly kept his Miami condo, a South Georgia compound, and Decatur property. The settlement also reportedly required him to pay $8,000 monthly in child support and to cover private school fees for their daughters.
Teyana was supposedly awarded vehicles including a Maybach, a Mercedes Sprinter, a tour bus, and a Bronco truck, along with her jewelry. She retained full ownership of her companies, Taylormade and Auntie’s, while Shumpert kept his Shumpert Shump investments.
After a seven-year marriage, Teyana reportedly filed for divorce in January 2023 but publicly announced the separation eight months later. Allegations of Shumpert’s infidelity, mental abuse, and neglectful parenting surfaced during the proceedings.
The former couple share two daughters, 9-year-old Iman Tayla Shumpert Jr. and Rue Rose Shumpert, four.
