Relationship With Ne-Yo

The model got married to RnB singer and songwriter, Ne-Yo (Shaffer Chimere Smith) on February 20, 2016. Meanwhile, Ne-Yo already has two kids from a previous relationship with Monyetta Shaw before the romance with Renay sparked. The couple met when Renay was cast to model for Ne-Yo’s album in 2015. In what was a business meeting turned romantic relationship, the two hit it off so well and ended up becoming lovers and getting tattoos within a few weeks of their relationship.

Speaking about how the marriage proposal came, Renay said they were in a hotel room cozying up on each other when Neyo popped the question without a ring at first. On her birthday, the 30-year old received a re-proposal with a fancy diamond ring. While their love life seems so perfect, the fact that there is an ex-fianceé Monyetta Shaw, Ne-Yo’s baby mama made it a little awkward and controversial.

However, Crystal Renay said she and Ne-Yo told Shaw about their engagement prior to posting it on social media. According to her, “at my request…at my requirement, he told her way before that. I like her as a person. I would never allow her to be blindsided by something from the media instead of hearing it from us first. NEVER.” It was alleged that the two women had a controversial feud and she got a warning from Neyo’s ex. But Renay debunked the rumour saying it was a misconception that people wanted both women not to like each other.

As part of her newfound fabulous lifestyle, Ne-Yo bought her a stunning crib in LA and they got married in Palos Verdes, California, a month before they welcomed their son Prince SJ.
