Three months ago retired NBA player, Iman Shumpert, demanded his ex-wife, actress Teyana Taylor, be held in contempt of court for violating the gag order in their divorce after she made a video addressing rumors about their settlement [click here if you missed that].
The judge agreed and has ordered Teyana to pay Iman's lawyers $70k...
From Us Magazine
Teyana Taylor was found in contempt of court and was ordered to pay her ex-husband, Iman Shumpert, $70,000 as part of their court battle, Us Weekly can exclusively report.
On August 5, the judge’s final order was entered in Taylor and Shumpert’s fight over who violated their 2024 divorce judgment. They both accused the other being in contempt of court, which is when someone disobeys or disrespects the court and/or its orders. They each demanded that the other be sentenced to jail time (Taylor eventually dropped her incarceration plea).
The order revealed a hearing took place on July 25, where Taylor, 34, and Shumpert, 35, were both present with their lawyers.
The judge heard testimony from Taylor and Shumpert, third-party witnesses and reviewed evidence submitted by the exes.
Per the order, the court denied Taylor’s request to find Shumpert in contempt. The judge said she had failed to “present sufficient evidence” to support her allegation that the former NBA star leaked information regarding their divorce judgment to the press. The judge also denied her request that her ex pay her legal bills.
The order noted that Taylor had refused to answer questions from Shumpert “inquiring about her assets and her income, further stating that such information was completely irrelevant to any issue.”
The court noted that Taylor has or will appear in no less than three movies since the divorce judgment was filed in July 2025. “Additionally, she has been cast and will appear in a television series beginning in Fall 2025.”
Shumpert argued Taylor had the resources to pay for his legal fees. “Taylor has failed and refused to produce any evidence to repel such a claim or charge against her,” the order read.
The court ordered Taylor to pay Shumpert’s lawyer $70,000 for legal fees “to be paid in full no later than 2 weeks from the” court order.

Dusties: The gift that keeps on giving...Don't date them and definitely don't marry them!
She gotta pay his lawyers AND hers too. Damn.
relationship goals, yea right.
This is why I don't study none of these celebrity relationships. Always pretending to be something to envy when it's just smoke and mirrors.
Imagine going live after your ex allegedly leaks divorce documents you tried to keep private in the name of protecting him, just for him to to turn around and ask the court for a fine and jail time on you? Chillleeee…
…and who is that man to the left? Iman’s darker with kinkier coiled hair, and full, smoker lips. What he got going on?
^ Yeah I never in a thousand yrs would've thought it would end like this.
