Looks like it may be over for singer/songwriter Ne-Yo and wife Crystal Smith.
Despite the couple’s recent vow renewal ceremony in April “Vegas Style,” Smith posted on Instagram on Saturday (July 30) that her husband, Ne-Yo, has been cheating on her with multiple women.
She states, “8 years of lies and deception. 8 years of unknowingly sharing my life and husband with numerous women who sell their bodies to him unprotected.. every last one of them! To say I’m heartbroken and disgusted is a understatement.”

Ne-Yo later confirmed the marriage troubles via Twitter, asking for privacy as the family goes through their challenges, stating,
“For the sake of our children, my family and I will work through our challenges behind closed doors. Personal matters are not meant to be addressed and dissected in public forums. I simply ask that you please respect me and my family’s privacy at this time.”

The song artist filed for divorce back in 2020, and according to Essence, “the two were struggling with personal demons they couldn’t overcome together.” However, the couple reconciled the same year, saying the pandemic brought them back together.
Shortly after the vow renewal in April, Ne-Yo told podcast host Janine Rubenstien from People Everyday while promoting his new music, “We’ve learned to genuinely listen to each other, we’ve learned to slow down in a moment and really figure out whether or not the emotion that we’re trying to jump to is the emotion that should be placed in that situation.”
The couple has five children, including Ne-Yo’s two children Mason and Madilyn, from a previous marriage. The couple originally tied the knot in 2016.
