Former NBA star Iman Shumpert and Teyana Taylor are facing a crucial deadline in their ongoing divorce proceedings, with the clock ticking down for them to submit a written settlement. The couple, who tied the knot in 2016 and have two daughters together, have been navigating a tumultuous split.

According to legal documents obtained by TMZ, the judge presiding over their divorce case has set a deadline of June 27 for Shumpert and Taylor to finalize their settlement. The pair recently appeared in court multiple times in an attempt to address various issues stemming from their separation, but now they must formalize their agreements on paper.

The judge has requested a final judgment, parenting plan, and child support details to be submitted by noon on Thursday. Failure to meet this deadline could result in the dismissal of their case, although they would still have the option to refile in the future.

Shumpert and Taylor’s relationship began in 2011 when they met at a party in New York City. They went public with their romance in 2014 and welcomed their first daughter, Iman Jr., in December 2015. The couple announced their engagement and subsequent marriage in 2016, followed by the birth of their second daughter, Rue Rose, in 2020.

However, their seemingly idyllic life took a turn when Taylor filed for divorce in January 2023, a move that reportedly blindsided Shumpert. The situation escalated with Taylor making various claims, including alleging that Shumpert had cut off utilities at their home.

As the deadline looms for Shumpert and Taylor to reach a settlement, the future of their divorce remains uncertain. While meeting the deadline would bring a resolution to their marriage, failing to do so could prolong the legal process and potentially lead to further courtroom battles.

For now, all eyes are on the estranged couple as they work towards finalizing the terms of their divorce and navigating the complexities of ending their once-promising relationship.
