October 4, (THEWILL) – American singer and actress, Teyana Taylor, has announced that she and Iman Shumpert have separated after seven years of marriage.
The songstress revealed the news of the separation by sharing a throwback photo of the couple seemingly dressed up for Halloween a few years back.
The 32-year-old confirmed the news in the caption, writing, “AHT AHT! Not too much on my bestie! In all fairness, Iman and I are separated and have been for a while.”
While she didn’t explain the reason for their split, she confirmed that cheating was definitely not the cause.
“To be 1000% clear, ‘infidelity’ ain’t one of the reasons for our departure. 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.”
She continued by sharing what’s more important to the duo, writing, “Most importantly we are family and in the 10yrs together, 7yrs married we ain’t ever played with or about THAT. We just keep y’all asses out the group chat lol, which is the reason we’ve been able to successfully & peacefully separate without all of the outside noise.”
Taylor ended the post by explaining that she only decided to share the news publicly to put a stop to the rumours and narratives that have gotten out of hand while hoping that the post would provide some clarity for everyone.
