<p id=”par-4_24″>He claimed he has lost out on career opportunities because of this. Ne-Yo said he doesn’t understand why anyone cares about his personal life.</p>
<p id=”par-5_65″>“There’s deals that I missed out on because they’re like, ‘We don’t know if we can get behind the whole polyamorous [thing],’” he said. “It’s almost like you can be a great person. You can show respect and appreciation, but the second you do something that they don’t agree with, canceled, you know what I mean? And that just doesn’t make any sense to me.”</p>
<p id=”par-6_17″>He and his partners are all content, which he believes is the only thing that should matter.</p>
<p id=”par-7_23″>“People say the dumbest stuff, like, ‘It’s degrading.’ Degrading to who?” he asked. “I’m not lying to nobody. Everybody is here by choice.”</p>
<p id=”par-8_6″>He previously had a fourth partner.</p>

He said the painful process taught him that it was better to be honest with his partners than to have affairs behind their backs. </p>
<p id=”par-10_56″>“I’mma keep it a buck with you. I was married before this, to one woman,” he told streamer Kai Cenat. “Things didn’t go well. I made my mistakes. We got divorced, a lot of people got hurt in the process, and I told myself at that moment I ain’t lying to nobody about nothing ever again.”</p>
<p id=”par-11_9″>He said that they maintain a policy of honesty. </p>
<p id=”par-12_31″>“If you with it, let’s rock. If you’re not, that’s cool too,” he said. “No love lost. You go your way and I go mine.’ That’s the only way it works.” </p>

<p id=”par-13_15″>When Renay ended her marriage to Ne-Yo, she accused him of repeated incidents of infidelity. </p>
<p id=”par-14_40″>“8 years. 8 years of lies and deception,” Renay wrote in a post (per <a href=”https://people.com/music/neyos-wife-crystal-renay-accuses-him-of-cheating/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>People</a>), adding, “8 years of unknowingly sharing my life and my husband with numerous women who sell their bodies to him unprotected…every last one of them!”</p>

<p id=”par-15_21″>While she noted that she wishes Ne-Yo nothing but the best, she had no intention of trying to <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/ne-yo-and-crystal-renay-renew-vows-after-nearly-divorcing.html/”>make things work</a>.</p>
<p id=”par-16_55″>“To say I’m heartbroken and disgusted is a[n] understatement,” she added. “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.”</p>
<p id=”par-17_22″>She said that while she is happy the marriage brought her three children, it ultimately also brought her a lot of heartbreak.</p>
