Ne-Yo's ex-girlfriend Sade Bagnerise has publicly slammed the singer for exposing their children to his polyamorous lifestyle. Bagnerise, who is the mother of two of Ne-Yo's seven children, took to social media to condemn the star after he admitted in a radio interview that his kids are fully aware of his polyamorous relationship with four different women.

While appearing on The Rickey Smiley Morning Show, Ne-Yo, 45, said, 'I'm not lying to nobody, not even my children.'. 'Hey, this is daddy's girlfriend, and so is that, and so is that, and so is that,' he continued as he pointed his finger in different directions.

'And she's gonna make you some cereal, and she's gonna cook lunch, and she's gonna wash your clothes. And it's all good.'. He finished, 'It's family. It's community. And that's what it's all about.'. After the interview aired, Bagnerise accused Ne-Yo of 'disgusting parenting' in a series of Instagram posts captured by Hollywood Unlocked.

'And didn't I tell your corny a** not to have that s**t going on in front of my kids, to do that cornball s**t ON YOUR OWN TIME,' she raged. Ne-Yo's ex-girlfriend Sade Bagnerise (pictured) has publicly slammed the singer for exposing their children to his polyamorous lifestyle.

The Miss Independent hitmaker recently came out as polyamorous after going public with his three lovers - who he calls his 'wives' despite not being legally married to them. 'And poly relationships aren't five "girlfriends" that party with you every night so that you can pick up more girls to hook up,' she continued.

'This is what you call an OPEN RELATIONSHIP,' she added. 'Stop giving him attention. That's why he thinks this is cute and marketable instead of hitting that booth and making a good song.'. Bagnerise's comments come just days after Ne-Yo added a fourth 'wife' to his growing list of girlfriends.

The Miss Independent hitmaker recently came out as polyamorous after going public with his three lovers - who he calls his 'wives' despite not being legally married to them. He's since added a fourth to the mix by shacking up with one his dancers, Brionna Williams.
The accomplished choreographer has already made a name for herself in the dance world by appearing on various TV shows and working with the likes of Ciara and Iggy Azalea. It's currently unclear how long she's been part of Ne-Yo's harem, but she made the romance Instagram official on December 31, when she spent New Year's Eve with the singer in Manila.
Ne-Yo recently added a fourth lover to his polyamorous relationship by shacking up with his backup dancer Brionna Williams. The 45-year-old has seven children, including two with his ex Bagnerise. Brionna joins Ne-Yo existing girlfriends: OnlyFans models Bella and Phoenix Feather, and party girl Arielle Hill.
While Brionna has proudly splashed Ne-Yo all over her Instagram page, she has yet to be publicly embraced by his other lovers. Bella, Phoenix, and Arielle all have each other listed in their Instagram bios, publicly confirming that they are indeed in a polycule with Ne-Yo, but they have yet to add Brionna.
They also haven't posted Brionna on their pages, despite regularly sharing photos with each other. To make matters worse, the original three spent Valentine's Day with Ne-Yo without Brionna. DailyMail.com has contacted Brionna and Ne-Yo for comment. Brionna joins Ne-Yo existing 'wives': OnlyFans models Bella and Phoenix Feather, and party girl Arielle Hill (all pictured with Ne-Yo).
Ne-Yo recently dined out with his original three 'wives', but newcomer Brionna was absent. Ne-Yo, a divorced father-of-seven, first came clean about his polyamorous lifestyle in an interview with TMZ last year. When asked about his thoughts on polygamy, the singer responded, 'Legalizing polygamy? I didn't know it was illegal. You should let people do whatever the hell they want to do. Can't see how it's hurting anybody.'.
He continued, 'To be honest, I don't need the government to tell me what I can and can't do in my personal life.'. Ne-Yo then warned that having multiple wives or girlfriends isn't for everybody. 'I don't recommend anything to anybody - what works for me might not work for you, or vice-versa,' he said.
In another interview with TMZ, Ne-Yo said that he has 'no cap' on how many girlfriends he can handle, saying that he's happy to have 'as many as you can afford.'. The Give Me Everything singer was previously married to Crystal Renay from 2016 until their divorce was finalized in 2023.
The former couple share three children: Shaffer Jr., eight, Roman, six, and Isabella Rose, three. He also has children with ex-girlfriends Sade Bagnerise and Monyetta Shaw. Back in April 2022, Ne-Yo and Crystal renewed their vows, but she filed for divorce only four months later and claimed that he had been unfaithful to her.
She issued an emotional statement on Instagram at the time which read, 'Eight years. Eight years of lies and deception.'. It continued, 'Eight years unknowingly sharing my life and husband with numerous women...'. 'To say I'm heartbroken and disgusted is a understatement. To ask me to stay and accept it is absolutely insane. The mentality of a narcissist.'.
