    “I just want her to have the time of her life and remember it as the best day in the world,” Ray J told the outlet before their nuptials. “Even when I wasn’t with her, I told my friends ‘She the one, she the one.’ It was just something about how I felt when she was around me.”

    “He’s the only person I’ve ever been with that I couldn’t see myself without,” said Princess.

  • Here Comes Baby

    The couple welcomed their first child, a daughter named Melody in 2019.

  • Four Times The Fun

    Then their family expanded by one more in 2020 with the arrival of their son, Epik.

  • Two in One

    There was also trouble in paradise for the couple in 2020. In May, Princess filed for divorce from Ray J.

    In March 2023, Ray J called off his divorce from Princess. That same year while speaking to Entertainment Tonight at the BET Awards, Ray J noted the ups and downs in their relationships.

    “I mean love is hard. It’s never easy but it always works out. And that’s what it’s supposed to be, right?” he said. “Becoming best friends and doing things that she loves to do that I love to do and just hanging in there. For me, it’s just compromising more and listening and trying to understand how we can make it right, and what I can do to be better too.”
