Teyana Taylor Jokes “I Took All Ya Money” After Iman Shumpert Laughs Off AI Paternity Rumor
An AI-generated rumor tried to start a war between Teyana Taylor and Iman Shumpert — and the exes shut it down in minutes, with jokes.
On Monday, November 9, Shumpert came across a viral social media post alleging that DNA testing had revealed the “real father” of Taylor’s daughters, Junie and Rue — and that Taylor allegedly cheated, leading to their divorce. The post also included AI-generated images claiming to show Taylor looking disheveled and struggling, which Shumpert laughed off as fake.
Instead of going off, he tagged his ex-wife on X and asked: “Why these not my kids?” He also joked that she was doing fine: “Lmfaooo dear ALL don’t believe everything u see. I promise I have a house and a bed to sleep in.”
Taylor came back instantly: “Ya might as well keep ’em, ’cause at this point, I took all ya money.” She also joked that their daughters look exactly like Shumpert and teased him about the thin appearance in the fake post.
For context: Taylor and Shumpert married in 2016, separated in 2023, and their divorce became final in July 2024. In March 2025, Taylor publicly challenged reports that she had received an enormous divorce settlement, saying she bought several of the luxury items attributed to the divorce herself and that their property was distributed through a court order, not a private settlement. Her “took all ya money” line was clearly part of the playful exchange — not a new disclosure about their finances.
The real story here isn’t the rumor — it’s that two people whose split played out in court and in public are now laughing at the internet together instead of letting a fake post pit them against each other.

Question: Is this the healthiest co-parenting energy in the culture right now — or just good PR?
