​Teyana Taylor is always on the scene, whether for her talents in music, dance, acting, or creative direction. The multifaceted artist has often captivated audiences not just with her artistry but also with her personal life

From her past high-profile marriage to off-duty NBA star Iman Shumpert to recent speculations surrounding her relationship with actor Aaron Pierre, Taylor’s romantic journey has been both public and intriguing.​ As a successful woman with many pursuits, it’s no wonder that fans and onlookers are so curious about her dating life. 

Rumored Romance with Aaron Pierre

After she divorced Iman Shumpert, Taylor drew attention for her personal life when she appeared at several high-profile events with British actor Aaron Pierre. The internet really went into a frenzy over the rumored couple after the 2025 Oscars. On Instagram, Taylor shared black-and-white photos of herself and the “Mufasa” star. 

 “Oscar night in black & white, no grey area,” Taylor captioned the post, which was set to SZA’s “Take You Down.” 

Many fans perceived it as a soft launch of their relationship. Pierre also shared the same photos on his account, further igniting discussions. Additionally, in April 2025, Pierre posted a shirtless selfie on Instagram. Then the same day, Taylor posted an Instagram story allegedly responding with the message, “on di wey,” adding fuel to the dating rumors.

Furthermore, fans suspected Taylor hinted at her rumored relationship with Pierre during Coachella 2025 in April. While attending the Revolve festival during the music-packed weekend, Taylor wore a Black western-theemd outfit. Her accessories included a gold chain belt with an “A” initial. Some people assumed the letter was for “Aaron,” while others linked the initial with Taylor’s single “A Rose In Harlem” and accompanying short film. 

Teyana Taylor and Iman Shumpert

Teyana Taylor and Iman Shumpert’s relationship began in 2013, after meeting at a party in 2011. The couple tied the knot in 2016 and welcomed two daughters: Iman “Junie” Tayla Shumpert Jr. and Rue Rose Shumpert. 

Fans praised Taylor and Shumpert’s relationship for its strength and mutual support, which they frequently showcased through social media and joint appearances. The pair starred in the VH1 reality show Teyana & Iman from 2020 to 2023 and appeared together in a 2024 Skims campaign. The handsome couple also collaborated on Taylor’s song “Wake Up Love.” 

However, in September 2023, Taylor secretly filed to divorce Shumpert. She announced their separation via Instagram that same year. 

“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,” part of her captioned in her now deleted Instagram post read.

Although it seemed the separated stars were friendship and co-parenting goals, more information revealed trouble was brewing. ​

A Closer Look at Taylor’s Divorce From Shumpert

In court documents obtained by TMZ in 2023, Taylor claimed Shumpert was jealous of her career. 

“Teyana claims that’s when Iman started sending her negative text messages with condescending and manipulative language in response to her being in the spotlight. She claims he would pick fights with her for no reason, even on her birthday, and then apologize,” the publication reported in 2023. 

In 2024, it seemed like the former pair’s divorce was finalized.

​​”Teyana Taylor has been entitled to retain four key marital properties. These properties, which has an estimated value of over 10 million dollars, are understood to be significant assets from their shared estate. Iman Shumpert has also been ordered to make a one-time 7 figure payment to Teyana Taylor,” theJasminBrand exclusively reported in 2024. 

Despite the public interest in her relationships, Taylor has consistently emphasized her desire for privacy. This is especially true regarding her family and personal matters. She even criticized media outlets for misrepresenting her situation with Shumpert and insisted on keeping the details of their settlement sealed by the court.

Taylor’s Previous Alleged Relationships

Taylor reportedly previously dated former NBA player Brandon Jenning. Although neither confirmed the relationship publicly, there was buzz around them being an item from 2009 to 2014. Rumors swirled that Jennings left Taylor for former model Lashontae Heckard, sparking drama. At the time, it stirred social media conversations.

According to a now deleted 2014 interview Taylor did with Power 105.1, the singer took issue with Heckards relationship with the NBA player.

“There’s always that one girl that you go through everything with, and you don’t shock her anymore. Brandon doesn’t shock me anymore…so my issue is not with Brandon. I’m not even upset, because I know him. My issue is with Tae because we were friends,” Bossip reported Taylor said in the interview with the radio show. 

Navigating Public and Private Life

Taylor continues to evolve both personally and professionally. Her journey reflects resilience and a commitment to authenticity. The star is effectively navigating the complexities of a high-profile divorce and seemingly exploring new relationships. Taylor remains a figure of strength and inspiration in the entertainment industry.

In 2025, Taylor went on Instagram Live to talk about what’s next for her love life. She also answered the question on whether she and Shumpert would ever get back together.

“People love the idea of what we looked like together. It looked like a fairy tale, but I lived it…I carried a lot of weight in my marriage, and I was tired…People keep saying, ‘Oh, I want them to get back together.’ No. That’s not happening…I love him, I respect him, but I am moving on,” she said on IG Live.

Her honesty continues to resonate with many, especially women learning to choose themselves after love. With clarity and grace, Taylor is stepping boldly into her next chapter; on her own terms.
