Ne-Yo Responds To Wife's Claim That He's Been Cheating On Her For Eight Years

by Daryl Nelson

Ne-Yo's wife Crystal Smith accused him of cheating over the weekend, which the R&B singer responded to but didn't deny. And all of this occurred just four months after they renewed their wedding vows after first marrying in 2016.

“8 years of lies and deception,” Smith wrote on Instagram. “8 years of unknowingly sharing my life and husband with numerous of women who sell their bodies to him unprotected… every last one of them! 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 ... 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.”

"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.”

He shared a video clip of himself speaking as well and suggested there's more to the story.

“Even if you hear a bad story about me, first understand there was a time I was good to those people, but they won’t tell you that," he said.

It seems like it'll take a lot for these two to work things out, huh?
