Ne-Yo’s strict rules for his ‘wives’ after father-of-seven added a fourth woman to his hareem

He soared to fame in the Noughties with hits such as So Sick and Sexy Love. 

Recently, Ne-Yo has been making headlines not for his music, but for his personal life. Many were surprised to see him shopping with the four women he considers his wives.

The 45-year-old singer publicly shared last year that he practices polyamory and lives with three partners he refers to as his ‘wives,’ though they are not legally married.

He’s posted photos with multiple women, all of whom affectionately refer to him as ‘daddy,’ and recently announced he’s now in a relationship with a fourth woman.

His primary partner is Cristina, an OnlyFans model also known as Pretty Baby. He also has relationships with Arielle Hill, called Twin Flame, and Moneii, who goes by Phoenix Feather.

In February, he began openly dating multiple people – a relationship style known as a ‘polycule’ – and introduced dancer Brionna Williams, also known as Sexy Lil’ Somethin’, as one of his partners.

Ne-Yo has spoken out in the past to justify his personal life, stating he doesn’t believe it harms anyone, and has also criticized the fact that polygamy is against the law.

He told TMZ he believes people should be free to make their own choices without government interference in their personal lives.

He opposes government regulation, but admits to having rules for his wives.

During an interview on The Angie Martinez Show, he stated his expectations clearly: he makes the rules, and exclusivity is non-negotiable – his partner cannot date anyone else.

I never asked these women to be with only me. They weren’t pressured – they were the ones who wanted a committed, exclusive relationship.

‘They came to me and said “I want to be exclusive to you and just you.”

I clarified that just because I’m choosing to be with only you, doesn’t mean I’m expecting the same from you. I wanted to make sure you understood and were comfortable with that.

He went on to note that the main rule to follow was keeping things transparent. 

‘The main rule is to just keep it a buck. We’re not gonna lie,’ he shared. 

Let’s be honest with each other. I won’t mislead you or make false promises. I’m not trying to convince anyone to do anything they don’t want to do, and I’m not offering unrealistic expectations.

‘If for whatever reason you decide this isn’t for you anymore, the door is never locked.

You’re free to do what you need to do. I want to be clear that I’m not trying to pressure anyone into doing anything they don’t want to.

Ne-Yo admitted one difficulty: finding enough time. As a father of seven, he explained, his schedule is very full.

The singer, shares his children with three former partners – who he dated monogamously.  

In a separate conversation, Ne-Yo revealed that his love life is fantastic and he’s doing really well. He also mentioned he’s regularly accompanied by four wonderful women.

The singer behind ‘Miss Independent’ and his multiple wives frequently share photos and videos of their extravagant life online.

The group are often spotted popping bottles in nightclubs and letting loose at pool parties. 

Ne-Yo brings his wives with him when he tours, and they travel the globe with him, visiting places like Dubai, Bangkok, and Brisbane.

Following criticism from some of the singer’s fans, Phoenix used Instagram to explain and support their unique relationship.

She acknowledged that being public figures means they’re used to receiving feedback and opinions, as that’s simply part of the deal.

She explained that they have a strong, mutual understanding and unwavering support for each other. It’s a bond many won’t grasp, and that’s okay – they’re a team focused solely on themselves.

Ne-Yo, who is divorced and has seven children, cautioned that juggling multiple partners isn’t suitable for everyone.

He explained that he avoids giving recommendations because everyone is different, and what’s helpful for him might not be helpful for someone else.

Ne-Yo recently told TMZ he has no limit to the number of girlfriends he can have, joking that he’s open to having ‘as many as someone is willing to support.’

As a lifestyle expert, I’ve been following Pitbull’s personal life, and many of you may know he and Crystal Renay were married for quite a while. They tied the knot back in 2016, but unfortunately, their marriage ended with a finalized divorce in 2023. It’s always sad to see couples go their separate ways, but life happens!

The former couple share three children: Shaffer Jr., eight, Roman, six, and Isabella Rose, three.

He also has children with ex-girlfriends Sade Bagnerise and Monyetta Shaw. 

Ne-Yo and Crystal Smith reaffirmed their commitment to each other with a vow renewal in April 2022, but just four months later, Crystal filed for divorce, alleging infidelity on Ne-Yo’s part.

She posted a heartfelt message on Instagram, stating, ‘Eight years. Eight years of lies and betrayal.’

It continued, ‘Eight years unknowingly sharing my life and husband with numerous women…’

Honestly, I’m beyond hurt and frankly, repulsed. Someone asking me to just *accept* this behavior? That’s just not okay. It really highlights the thinking of someone who’s self-centered and lacks empathy – a classic narcissistic pattern, in my experience.

She declared, ‘I’m choosing to prioritize my own well-being, happiness, and self-respect. While I’m grateful for my three children, this relationship ultimately resulted in years of pain and regret.’

Crystal recently told Atlanta Black Star that she wouldn’t have married Ne-Yo if she’d known he was interested in having multiple partners.

Okay, so I’ve been following Ne-Yo for *years*, and it’s just… heartbreaking to hear about everything with Monyetta. Apparently, back in 2023, she finally revealed what really drove them apart, and honestly, it’s just awful. She said his thing with wanting threesomes was the final straw. I mean, I always sensed something was off, but to hear it laid out like that? It just explains so much. It’s just… sad, you know?

She admitted to having cheated with someone, explaining to YouTuber Haus of Aaron, ‘We did it together,’ and held up three fingers for emphasis.

Look, we were a couple, really sharing our lives – and honestly, I never saw it as wrong because we were doing it *together*. But eventually, that just wasn’t fulfilling enough for him, and things changed.

She explained that she told him, “I didn’t agree to do this regularly.” It caused issues because he kept asking her to do it often.

I told them that if they wanted that kind of behavior, then we weren’t a good fit. I attempted to handle the situation playfully, but it didn’t resolve things. Ultimately, I accept that’s just how it is.
