Here’s How Crystal Renay Discovered Ne-Yo Was Cheating
On Thursday, April 11, ‘The Breakfast Club’ published an interview with Renay and Usher’s ex-wife Tameka Foster via YouTube. During the sitdown, Ne-Yo’s ex-wife opened up about how she discovered his infidelity.
Renay explained that, ironically, she made the discovery through one of Ne-Yo’s past appearances on the radio show.
“Well, what’s funny is, it was ‘The Breakfast Club,'” Renay explained, clarifying that this occurred before Jess Hilarious joined the show and while Angela Yee was still a co-host. “Remember when y’all asked him the question, would he be okay not knowing if his partner cheating? He was like, ‘I would live in a blissful bubble.'”
Ne-Yo’s ex-wife explained that his answer didn’t sit well with her.
“‘Uhn uhn, something ain’t right. Is that how he wants me to think?'” she recalled telling herself at the time.
Renay went on to explain that that same day, she found “everything” she “needed to find,” and when she confronted the singer, he had “no choice” but to admit his wrongdoing.

A Brief Recap Of The Pair’s Divorce & What Ne-Yo Has Been Up To Since
As The Shade Room previously reported, Renay and Ne-Yo finalized their divorce in February 2023. At the time, the pair had reportedly been married for seven years.
In the settlement, Ne-Yo was reportedly ordered to pay Renay a one-time lump sum of $1.6 million per TMZ. Additionally, Renay walked away from their union with one of their four homes in Georgia and $20,000 in moving expenses.
Ne-Yo was also ordered to pay Renay $150,000, so she could purchase a new car and $12,000 a month in child support.
Lastly, the singer was ordered to pay Renay $5,000 a month in alimony payments until 2026.
Amid the finalization of their divorce, it was speculated that Ne-Yo not only fathered one child with a woman named Sade Bagnerise — but two, per The Shade Room. Then, in May, Ne-Yo appeared to confirm reports when he filed to establish paternity of Bagnerise’s two youngest children.
