The child custody battle between Teyana Taylor and her ex Iman Shumpert has seen a fresh war of words. This time, Teyana has taken shots at Iman and his new alleged girlfriend for “confusing” their kids.
TMZ recently obtained court documents showing how the legal battle is developing. One filing from several weeks ago reportedly shows Teyana’s lawyer asking the court to call in a child psychologist. This was said to give an expert opinion on how the presence of Iman’s new woman was affecting the kids.
When the former power couple’s daughters were staying with Iman during his parenting weekend, someone Iman described as his “friend” was also staying at the house. TMZ reported that Teyana knew this because she saw the mystery woman’s daughter and heard the woman during a FaceTime call.
Teyana’s legal team has asserted that their oldest daughter was “confused” after seeing her dad sharing his bed with the unknown woman. It was also claimed that Iman told his daughter that his “friend” was staying with them because her home was “broken.”
Teyana claimed that the woman and her daughter later accompanied Iman and their kids at SkyZone. According to the Daily Mail, Taylor told the court that Iman did not need to have the woman around during the rare time he gets to spend with his kids.
Right now, Iman looks after daughters Junie and Rue every other weekend, plus a handful of Fridays. Teyana alleged that her estranged husband “doesn’t actually realize the impact that him being seen with another woman” has on the kids. This is reportedly why she wants to bring in a child psychologist for an expert opinion.
Iman Has Failed to Pay Child Support
The Mail also reported that Teyana has asked for a financial expert to testify in their divorce proceedings. She has claimed that the former NBA star has withdrawn nearly $4 million from their shared bank accounts. These are just the latest in a string of allegations Teyana has made about Iman’s recent actions.
She also accused him of switching off the utilities in her Atlanta home where she looks after the girls. Teyana stated that in January her cable, internet, and even water were turned off in the house.

She alleged that Iman has not paid any child support other than school tuition since moving out in October. Iman left Atlanta and returned to his hometown of Chicago.
Teyana said that before they separated, the ex-couple started home renovations which included fixing a security gate on the house. Teyana claimed that Iman has not followed through on a promise to pay for around $200,000 worth of renovations.
With so much still to sort out following their divorce, the last thing Teyana needs is a new woman involved.
