Ne-Yo is a proud papa! On Tuesday, the singer shared photos of his kids, including the child whom he had out of wedlock with a woman named Sade.
Taking to Instagram stories, Ne-Yo reposted photos of all of his kids, which were originally posted by the mothers of his children. He wrote, “I am blessed. Thank you GOD for my beautiful children and the people that help me raise them. I love you all.”
On July 30, 2022, Ne-Yo’s estranged wife, Crystal Renay, announced that she would be divorcing him after eight years of marriage. The mom of three shared the news with her fans on Instagram.
She wrote, “Eight years of lies and deception. Eight years of unknowingly sharing my life and husband with numerous women who sell their bodies to him unprotected … every last one of them,” Crystal shared in her announcement of separation from Ne-Yo. “To say I’m heartbroken and disgusted is an understatement. To ask me to stay and accept it is absolutely insane. The mentality of a narcissist.”
Crystal Renay and Ne-Yo married in 2016 and separated in 2019 before making amends and renewing their wedding vows earlier last year.
Crystal continued in, “I will no longer lie to the public or pretend that this is something it isn’t. I choose me. I choose my happiness and health and my respect. I gained three beautiful children out of this but nothing else but wasted years and heartache,” Crystal shared with her supporters. “If someone can’t love you the way you deserve, then it’s up to you to love yourself.”
Ne-Yo responded to his wife’s separation announcement with a social media post of his own. “For the sake of our children, my family and I will work through our challenges behind closed doors,” the producer tweeted on Sunday (Jul. 31). “Personal matters are not meant to be addressed and dissected in public forums,” Ne-Yo continued. “I simply ask that you please respect me and my family’s privacy at this time.”
Ne-yo has six children- three kids with estranged with Crystal Smith, two with his ex Monyetta Shaw, and a son with influencer Sade. He is also rumored to be expecting his seventh with a pregnant Sade.
