  • The court determined that details shared in Taylor’s March Instagram video breached a confidentiality provision in their July 2024 divorce decree.
  • Taylor’s claim that Shumpert leaked settlement information was dismissed after the judge concluded her attorneys failed to present sufficient evidence or perform basic diligence.
