Teyana Taylor made headlines with her divorce from the former NBA player Iman Shumpert. However, a legal dispute arose afterward. In related filings, Shumpert also requested that the child support payment be reduced as he claimed that the actress earns much more than him. Which naturally makes one wonder: considering her growing roster of film roles, music projects, and brand partnerships, just how much has Teyana Taylor earned over the years?

A report claimed that the actress received four luxury houses worth $10 million, a $300k Maybach, a $70k Mercedes Sprinter, and a tour bus in her settlement. However, none of these claims were proved. In a special IG Live, she clarified that she “never entered” any settlement and walked away with only what was hers.

“Let’s get this gold-digger s— out the way. Every single car that I walked away with, I literally paid for out of my pocket. I bought my tour bus with my hard-earned money. I bought my Maybach after Iman crashed my Rolls Royce and never replaced it. Let’s be very clear, I left with what I came with,” she said.
