Here’s What’s Being Reported About Iman Shumpert’s Income & Alleged Child Support Request
According to TMZ, court documents obtained by the outlet show that Shumpert has been breaking down his and Taylor’s finances. More specifically, the former NBA player is alleging that Taylor’s monthly income is “nearly double” what he makes each month.
The outlet reports that Shumpert has listed his monthly income as $47,981. However, he alleges that Taylor earns $93,885 each month.
Therefore, Shumpert is asserting that as the court continues to “hammer out” his and Taylor’s child support arrangements, he would be comfortable continuing to “[shell] out $8,000 a month” for their two daughters, Junie and Rue.
Additionally, he’s reportedly comfortable covering “major” medical expenses for his daughters through his health insurance. However, Shumpert reportedly “wants to split the cost of the kids’ other health services” with Taylor.
TMZ reports that finances have been a point of contention for the former couple amid their divorce. In January, the outlet reported that Taylor accused Shumpert of leaving her “holding the bag on $200K worth of home renovations.” At the time, Taylor also reportedly accused Shumpert of not having paid “a cent of child support.”
Additionally, Taylor has reportedly accused Shumpert of withdrawing “nearly $4 million” from bank accounts they share, per TMZ.
A Brief Recap Of The Couple Divorce Proceedings Thus Far
It appears that a judge has not yet ruled on Shumpert’s request. To note, the reported update arrives about nine months after Taylor confirmed her and Shumpert’s split, per The Shade Room.
At the time, Taylor alleged that she and Shumpert were “besties” and had been separated “for a while.”
“…We are still the best of friends, great business partners, and are one hell of a team when it comes to co-parenting our 2 beautiful children. Most importantly, we are FAMILY & in the 10 yrs together, 7 yrs married we ain’t ever played with or about THAT,” she wrote in a message shared via Instagram.
Then, in November 2023, it was revealed that Taylor filed for divorce from Shumpert in January of that year. Furthermore, she reportedly sought a temporary and physical custody arrangement and a child support arrangement in her filing, per The Shade Room.
At that point, things also appeared to bubble up between the former pair as Taylor alleged Shumpert hadn’t spent “significant” time with their daughters since moving out of their shared home in October 2023.
However, that wasn’t all Taylor alleged. The singer reportedly revealed that her and Shumpert’s union hit troubled waters when she noticed the former NBA player becoming “jealous” of her success.
Since then, Shumpert has been accused of endangering Taylor and neglecting their daughters. While he’s denied those claims, he’s also been accused of depriving his family of essential utilities amid their home renovations.
Most recently, Taylor has reportedly filed documents in relation to Shumpert’s love life and how it’s allegedly affecting their children.
