Ne-Yo has filed court documents to obtain legal parental rights over his two youngest children, whom he shares with Sade — not to be confused with the one who sings, “No Ordinary Love.” In documents obtained by TMZ, the R&B hitmaker requested to receive joint legal and physical custody of both kids, as well as wanting to make it official that he’s the daddy.
Per TMZ, Ne-Yo revealed that he and Sade welcomed Braiden in 2021 and their newest addition Brixton back in February 2022. As you’ll probably recall Ne-Yo was caught up in some drama last year when his ex Crystal filed for divorce and publicly said he had fathered a child with another woman while still married to her.
With that said, Ne-Yo, who was initially believed to have settled with Sade, told TMZ last week that he was very much single. But he understandably wants to sort out this issue which could potentially lead to problems if he doesn’t take the legal route to establish custody sooner rather than later.
In early 2020, rumors started circulating that Ne-Yo and Crystal were having marital problems. Fans noticed that they had unfollowed each other on social media, and Crystal had removed her wedding ring from her Instagram photos.
Ne-Yo and Crystal Smith’s divorce made headlines and sparked a lot of reactions from fans and celebrities. Some fans expressed their disappointment and sadness, while others criticized Ne-Yo for his infidelity.
