Furthermore, she has also revealed how content she is on her life. She stated, “Sometimes we can’t see the bigger picture and what may or may not be for us and in this situation, clearly it wasn’t a place for me to be in any longer, and I’m OK with that… I’m happy for myself because I chose my self-worth. I stood up for myself and walked away from something that wasn’t serving me any longer.”
It has been almost two years since the popular couple broke up. Many fans, media, and their close ones were in shock by the news and couldn’t believe it until it became true.
Why did Crystal Renay and Ne-Yo get divorced?
Although at first Renay and her husband did not reveal why they were separating, she finally hinted that he had been cheating on her for several years.
In July 2022, she posted on Instagram with the caption, “8 years of lies and deception.” She also revealed he was cheating on her with several women and even had several unprotected sex.

In an Instagram post, she exclusively revealed the following details, “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!.”
Even before she revealed these details, the couple was already on the verge of separating. During their divorce trial, she did not talk, but her husband gave some context behind the divorce.
He appeared in the Private Talk Podcast with Alexis Texas and revealed that they were going through a divorce, which was for the best for both.
He also admitted, “It’s slowly but surely becoming public knowledge that my wife and I have decided to get a divorce. It’s not a sad thing, it’s more of us realizing long story short, she’s got demons just like everybody else, just like me. We realize that our demons don’t mesh and until both of us get a hold of our demons, it’s gonna be just difficult for us to stay married.”
At the time, he also revealed that he did not want to talk wrong about her and that she was an excellent mother and an excellent woman who excelled at everything. However, during their divorce process, when cheating allegations surfaced, he started denying the allegations. When asked by the media he stated he would deal with the accusations behind closed doors for his and his children’s sake.
On January 26, 2023, their divorce was finalized completely. After that, TMZ got an exclusive report on the details of their settlements. It was also revealed that he would pay her ex-wife a lump sum of $1.6 million, $20,000 in moving expenses, $12,000 per month in child support, and $150,000 in the purchase of a new car.
She will also keep one of his four houses, and she was granted the majority of their children’s custody. She will also receive $5000 per month of alimony for the next three years.
After the news was revealed about his settlement, many media and fans believed she must have hard evidence he was cheating on her. Hence, he might have agreed to this settlement in exchange for not disclosing the proof to the media.
Christina Renay and Ne-Yo’s dating history
Renay and her former husband first started dating in 2014. At first, they kept the relationship hidden from the media and fans as they did not want to reveal all their private stuff. In the interview, he admitted that being straight to her was the key to winning her heart.
He revealed that there wasn’t any beating around the bush. He told her she was beautiful and smart and wanted to know if she could handle any fame. He also asked her to reveal everything about herself, including her past relationships and why men she previously dated left her.
According to him, she did that and also revealed everything she did not like about him and wanted him to change. He thought the conversation at first was uncomfortable, but he never lost hope. After that conversation, there was no need to impress anyone as the first date turned into a second, third, and more.
Just a year after their first date, she revealed on her Twitter that she was expecting a child. He also shared publicly about her, revealing he was about to be a father. At the same time, they also got engaged, which he shared with his fans on his Twitter account.
He tweeted, “Clearing the air..@mscrystalrenay and I are ENGAGED to be married next year. And yes we are expecting” with the hashtag #FromTheHorsesMouth. This tweet cleared all the rumors from the artist and their fans thought they were in a healthy relationship.
In February 2016, the pair tied the knot in a huge ceremony among their loved ones, families, and friends. Currently, the couple is co-parenting three children: Shaffer Chimere Jr., 7, Roman Alexander-Raj, 5, and Isabella Rose, 2.

The Bachelor’s Aly Jacobs Gets Engaged to Longtime Boyfriend
The duo has been dating since early 2023.
Congratulations to Alyssa Danielle Jacobs, also known as Aly Jacobs, who recently got engaged to her longtime boyfriend, whose identity is yet to be revealed.
The 28-year-old former contestant of The Bachelor revealed her engagement to her boyfriend in a romantic Instagram post on Monday, August 5, 2024. She shared a series of pictures alongside her future husband while flaunting her engagement ring.
In the first picture, she was seen sitting in her fiance’s lap, as her partner delivered a sweet kiss on her cheeks. Jacobs seemed to be donning a red outfit; however, it isn’t clear as she had covered herself with her fiance’s coat.
On the other hand, her mystery fiance wore a white shirt with a navy blue suit. The second picture showed the newly engaged couple passionately kissing each other on the lips, as Jacobs upheld her hand to flaunt her stunning diamond engagement ring.

Similarly, the third and last picture she added was a selfie her now-fiance took on their first date at Bones Restaurant in Atlanta. To accompany those memorable images, she wrote, “from first dates to forever, the easiest yes.”
Moments after she made the big engagement announcement, her Instagram post was filled with congratulatory messages from friends and well-wishers. For instance, one Instagram user and a friend of the couple wrote, “I knew it!! Congrats, Aly!! So happy for you two.”
“OMG!!! Yay Aly!! You deserve it all. So happy for you!” wrote another friend of the former Bachelor contestant, with one Instagram user following up with, “Congratulations!!! Such an incredible couple, so so happy for y’all!”

Likewise, one Instagram user commented, “Over the moon elated for you both!!! So happy you found your person, and above all, to see you receive the love you are so worthy and deserving of. Congratulations lovey!!!”
Jacobs and her boyfriend-turned-fiance officially began dating on February 3, 2023. However, the exact details of how they met as well as all the details about her future husband currently remains unknown, as the reality star prefers to keep them under the limelight.
That said, the first time she featured her then-boyfriend on her Instagram handle was on June 21, 2023. She shared a series of pictures with her partner from their vacation in Amelia Island and captioned it by writing, “keeping this one to myself.”
Since then, she has frequently featured her boyfriend on her social media handles. In December 2023, they spent Christmas together, and a couple of months later, on February 3, 2024, they marked their first dating anniversary.
Fast forward to August 2024, Jacobs and her partner have taken a big step in their relationship and gotten engaged. Once again, congratulations to the love birds!

Jenn Tran Responds to Hurtful Racist Message She Received over Instagram
“You’ll have to try a little harder.”
Jenn Tran, the first Asian American Bachelorette, recently addressed a racist message she received, expressing her dismay and resilience. This incident highlights the ongoing challenges of racism and the importance of standing against hate.
As The Bachelorette Season 21 – featuring Tran – continues to air weekly, Tran has been taking to her Instagram handle to bond with her fans, by asking them to send her which Taylor Swift song they believe applies to that week’s episode.
After going through all the suggestions, she picks one and officially names the one song as the “song of the week” after the episode airs. Some of Swift’s songs that have been picked during the past few weeks are ‘Sparks Fly,’ ‘Karma,’ ‘State of Grace,’ and ‘Jump Then Fall.’
On Monday, August 5, 2024, the fifth episode of The Bachelorette Season 21 aired, and as custom, Tran took to her Instagram story to ask her fans which Taylor Swift song applies to this week’s episode. However, one particular response wasn’t what Tran was expecting.

It’s because that response was targeted toward Tran’s ethnicity. This hateful and racist response targeted the reality star’s Asian roots, mentioning the shape of her eyes and her ability to “see” if they are “barely open.”
Tran immediately decided to shut down this racist message and clapped back via her Instagram story. First, she wrote, “First of all, not on Taylor Swift song day!!! How rude!” She then followed up with, “Second of all, if you’re gonna make a racist comment to hurt me, you’ll have to try a little harder than with something I’ve been hearing since I was a kid.”
Despite the hurtful message, she remains focused on her journey as the Bachelorette. She continues to approach her role with positivity and determination, demonstrating resilience in the face of adversity.
As the first Asian American Bachelorette, Tran has faced unique pressures and responsibilities. In an earlier interview with Bachelor Nation, she discussed the significance of her role, expressing her desire to be a positive role model.
In the interview, she shared her thoughts on the pressures of being the first Asian American Bachelorette. She acknowledged the weight of expectations but emphasized her commitment to staying true to herself and her story. Jenn expressed gratitude for the opportunity to represent her ethnicity and inspire others.
She stated, “Of course I feel pressure. A lot of it actually comes from me wanting to be a good role model and do it ‘right,’ whatever that means. At the end of the day, I tell myself that it’s just about being myself and telling my story the best that I can.”
Her journey as the Bachelorette is not only about finding love but also about breaking barriers and promoting inclusivity. Her grace and strength continue to inspire many, and her stance against racism sets a powerful example for her audience and beyond.

Shanae Ankney and Future Husband Nate Ebner Celebrate Second Anniversary
Congratulations to the two!
Shanae Ankney is relishing all the days before she officially becomes a wife to her boyfriend-turned-fiance Nate Ebner.
One such day was Ankney and Ebner’s second dating anniversary. On Tuesday, July 30, 2024, the Bachelor in Paradise alum took to her Instagram handle to mark the special occasion.
She posted a PDA-filled picture of herself and her partner, where they were sweetly kissing each other. The image was taken on the sidewalk, in front of what seems to be a small restaurant or a diner.
It means that the love birds went to get some alone time and celebrate their special milestone. Alongside the picture, she wrote a sweet caption, reading, “Love is spelled T-I-M-E. Happy two years my love. I can’t wait to share your last name.”
Some moments later, friends and well-wishers took to the comment section to pour congratulatory messages. One Instagram user wrote, “You were our favorite ever from the bachelor franchise, sooo happy to see you found your happily ever after!!!”
“So happy for y’all. May God bless you and your little family,” wrote another Instagram user. Similarly, a friend of the engaged duo commented, “Yay!!! Can’t wait to hear all about it!!”
Likewise, one doubter, who didn’t believe Ankney and Ebner’s relationship would last this long, took to the comment section and wrote, “I can’t believe it lasted this long. I was wrong. I thought he would leave within 3 months.”
Well, while there might have been some doubts about Ankney and her boyfriend’s relationship during its initial phase, those doubts went away as their bond strengthened. One of the main reasons behind their relationship’s strength was when they welcomed a baby.
Speaking from the start, the 32-year-old Ankney – whose birth name is Shanae Irene Ankney – officially began dating Ebner on July 30, 2022. However, she initially kept their relationship a secret and also didn’t feature him on her socials.

On November 11, 2022, she soft-launched her relationship with the former NFL player. She had posted the same picture as the one in her second dating anniversary post, except only Ebner’s arm was visible in the 2022 Instagram post.
On April 10, 2023, she officially hard-launched their relationship via Instagram. Less than a year later, on October 23, 2023, Ankney took to her Instagram handle to announce that she was pregnant with a baby girl and her due date was April 2024.
On April 11, 2024, she gave birth to an adorable daughter, whom the couple named Maven Jane. She publicly announced the good news on April 15, captioning her post, “Maven Jane 🤍 4•11•2024 🤍 you were worth the wait my sweet girl.”
A month after welcoming their baby girl, the boyfriend-girlfriend duo got engaged. On May 16, 2024, The Bachelor alum revealed that Ebner went down on his knee and proposed to her, to which she gladly accepted.

She shared a picture of her holding her baby girl, while flaunting her engagement ring, and wrote, “I can’t wait to do it all with you Nate, you make me the happiest girl alive. Here’s to FOREVER. I love you!”
As mentioned earlier, Ankney and her partner have been together for a little over two years. In the time they have spent together, they have welcomed a baby and gotten engaged. And the wedding bells might also be ringing soon. We wish the couple nothing but the best!
