Teyana Taylor joked that she took all of Iman Shumpert’s money after her ex-husband responded to a bizarre online rumor claiming he was not the biological father of their two daughters.
The unexpected exchange unfolded on Monday, November 9, after Shumpert came across a social media post alleging that DNA testing had revealed he wasn’t the father of Junie and Rue Rose. The post also featured a noticeably thinner-looking image of the former NBA player and claimed that Taylor had received most of his property in their divorce.
Instead of getting upset, Shumpert decided to turn the entire situation into a joke.
He tagged his ex-wife on X and asked, “Why these not my kids?”
Shumpert also questioned why the picture made him look so skinny. He included a hashtag identifying the viral content as AI and assured everyone that he was doing fine.
Apparently, Teyana Taylor found the whole thing just as ridiculous because she wasted no time responding.
Made to order and shipped to your door.
“Ya might as well keep ’em, ’cause at this point, I took all ya money.”
Taylor also joked that their daughters look exactly like Shumpert and teased him about the unusually thin appearance shown in the post.
The two were clearly enjoying themselves, especially considering the original allegations involved their children, their divorce, and Shumpert’s financial situation.
The online claims were not accompanied by credible evidence of DNA testing or documentation establishing that Shumpert had lost his property. Although he identified the content as AI, the exact origin of the image has not been independently confirmed.
The exchange comes after a complicated few years for the former couple.
Teyana Taylor and Shumpert married in 2016 and welcomed two daughters during their relationship. Their oldest, Iman “Junie” Tayla Shumpert Jr., is now 10, while their youngest, Rue Rose, is 6.
The couple separated in 2023, with their divorce becoming final in July 2024.
Their split generated considerable public attention, particularly after allegations about their relationship and financial arrangements began circulating online.
In March 2025, Taylor challenged reports suggesting she had received an enormous divorce settlement. She maintained that she had purchased several of the luxury items attributed to the divorce herself and disputed the portrayal of her as someone who had taken Shumpert’s assets.
She also stated in court filings that the former couple had not negotiated a private settlement and that their property had instead been distributed through a court order.
Their legal disagreements continued in August 2025, when a Georgia judge ordered Taylor to pay $70,000 toward Shumpert’s attorney fees after finding that she had violated restrictions on publicly discussing details of their divorce.
Taylor subsequently addressed the payment during an appearance on “The Breakfast Club,” explaining that she wanted to put the legal situation behind her.
Despite the tension surrounding their breakup, both parents have publicly discussed the importance of maintaining a positive relationship for their daughters.
Teyana Taylor has previously explained that co-parenting requires showing up for each other even when the romantic relationship is over.
Now, the former couple’s latest online interaction shows them joking together rather than allowing another internet rumor to create an argument.
Taylor’s comment about taking all Shumpert’s money was clearly part of their playful exchange, not a new disclosure about their divorce finances.
And as for the claim that their daughters aren’t biologically his, neither parent presented any evidence supporting that allegation.
Shumpert came across a strange rumor, called his ex-wife into the conversation, and ended up getting roasted about his money and his appearance.
This time, Teyana Taylor and Iman Shumpert were laughing together.
