Ups and downs. While Ne-Yo and Crystal Renay’s romance seemingly hit a snag after she publicly accused her spouse of infidelity, they initially fell in love very quickly.“The first thing I said to her was that ‘I am aware that you are a beautiful woman, that you are smart, that you are driven and I’m aware that I can handle all of this [fame] stuff,’” the “So Sick” crooner recalled to Essence in October 2020. “I need to know that I can handle all the stuff that I’m not aware of.

I need to know every reason that a man has ever left you or anything that you feel like a man will leave you for. I need your track record.

I need it all right here, right now.”He continued: “She laid out her dirty laundry, I laid out my dirty laundry [and] after this very uncomfortable conversation, the air in the room got lighter so to speak, and we didn’t feel like we had to work as hard to impress each other.

After that conversation, I had a laundry list of dos and don’ts in regard to being in a relationship with her and I took that list and turned it into a song and that song is ‘Good Man.’”Less than one year after their first date, the pair announced they were expecting their first child and were engaged.“Clearing the air..@mscrystalrenay and I are ENGAGED to be married next year.
