Teyana Taylor is expecting her second child with her husband, Iman Shumpert. Taylor revealed her pregnancy in the new music video for her “Wake Up Love” single featuring Shumpert who also appears in the visual along with their 4-year-old daughter, Junie.
The couple will be welcoming a second daughter, Taylor announced on Friday (June 12) in an Instagram post dedicated to her husband.
“Though you are the love of my life, my king, my husband & an amazing father. YOU ARE STILL A BLACK MAN FIRST, before anything. And that’s the risk I take as you leave my side and walk out the door every single day,” she wrote. “I could have lost you yesterday. I could lose you today. I could lose you tomorrow. The sadness of our planet has corrupted mankind’s ability to make empowering decisions. Darkened, but not by the sun; WE still stand up in assembly and cry for help. For these are the reasons I have broken down my defenses; I hear you, I see you, I love you.”
Taylor went on to thank Shumpert for being the family protector. “To our girls, the name father is another name for what we created, love. For I will never rue the love inside of my heart because I have a King to uphold and Queens to raise.”
“Wake Up Love” is the second single from the Harlem native’s upcoming release, The Album. The music video was executive produced by Taylor’s production team, The Aunties.
