The Miss Independent singer added, ‘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.’
Ne-Yo whose real name is Shaffer Chimere Smith’s statement comes a day after his spouse accused him of being unfaithful during their relationship.
Renay took to Instagram on 30th July Saturday to share her feelings.
The 36-year-old model said, ‘8 years of life 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.’
Furthermore, she continued, ‘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.’
Renay went on to mention, ‘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 3 beautiful children out of this but nothing else but wasted years and heartache.’

The R&B singer talked about the experience during the chat show The Talk.
He noted, ‘Before the quarantine happened, we were definitely talking divorce, and the quarantine forced us to sit still, block out the noise from the world – you know the world can get very, very loud, and we tend to let the world’s opinion mean more in certain situations than it should.’
