Ne-Yo & Crystal Renay Tie the Knot in Los Angeles: Soon-to-Be Parents are Finally Married!
Ne-Yo is a married man! The singer and his longtime girlfriend, Crystal Renay, tied the knot over the weekend in Los Angeles. The soon-to-be parents said their "I Dos" in front of family and friends on Saturday, February 20.
Besides waiting on the arrival of their son, Ne-Yo revealed to People Magazine that he is excited about spending his life with his new wife. "We can't wait to start our life together. We're looking forward to just being each others' best friend," he shared.
Before proposing, the singer said that he knew quickly that Renay was a special lady. "I kind of knew right away," he admitted. "From that first encounter, I knew there was something different about her, something special."
Ne-Yo and Renay's first child together is due any day now, and both parents were a bit nervous about the little one's due date. "When I went to my first fitting, I had actually just found out the day before that I was pregnant, so from the beginning of the whole dress process, we knew that it would be a growing belly," Renay explained.
Ne-Yo has two other children from a previous relationship; one son, Mason Evan, 4, and one daughter, Madilyn Grace, 5. Their mother is Atlanta Exes reality star, Monyetta Shaw. They were not in attendance at their father's wedding.
Both Ne-Yo and Renay admitted that they were a bit nervous about their wedding day. Renay didn't want to "fall on her face" and her husband didn't want her to go into labor because she is, after all, nine months pregnant.
"I'm more concerned about her making it all that way down that aisle or if the water breaks or something," the "Religious" singer said.
Ne-Yo, who was once engaged to Shaw, claimed that his marriage to Renay will be forever. He said there will be ups and downs of course, but the 36-year-old said he wants his marriage to last.
"This is big for me. I'm not doing this again, so I'm happy that my family and friends are able to be there to share this moment with us," he claimed. "We're human being, so we're gonna bump heads on different things, but we've agreed that this is gonna be a marriage that lasts."
Congrats! MStars News can't wait to see more photos of the unforgettable weekend.
