Teyana Taylor has asked a judge to hold Iman Shumpert in contempt for violating a standing order.

In September, Teyana Taylor shocked the internet when she revealed that she and Iman Shumpert had gone their separate ways. The news came amid some rumors that Shumpert had cheated on Taylor, which she denied. At the time, she told supporters that despite their split, the two of them were still the "best of friends."

The situation took another surprising turn in November, when Taylor's secret divorce filing started making its rounds online. The singer accused Shumpert of displaying traits of a narcissist, being jealous of her career, infidelity, and more. Her claims didn't stop there, however. Earlier this month, she alleged that Shumpert "consistently demonstrates a clear disregard for the safety of the minor children."

In court documents obtained by TMZ, she accused him of being under the influence while caring for their two children. Now, she's back with even more allegations against her ex, this time involving her and her kids' home. According to Taylor, Shumpert has begun to shut off the utilities in the house, which she claims to have noticed just this month. She recalls waking up one day to find that the WiFi and cable had been turned off, and only a day later, the water.

According to the documents, Shumpert's brother informed Taylor that the power in the home would be shut off shortly after he moved out in October. She alleges that ever since, he hasn't helped her cover any of the kids' expenses. Taylor's asking the judge to hold him in contempt for violating their standing order, and to order him to pay child support.
