AceShowbiz - Ne-Yo is officially back on the market, according to his estranged wife Chrystal Smith. When one of her followers asked for help to hook up with the "Miss Independent" singer, Chrystal replied, "You can shoot your shot."
Ne-Yo confirmed his separation from Chrystal earlier this month only a few days before their four-year anniversary of marriage. "It's slowly but surely becoming public knowledge that myself and my wife have decided to go ahead and get a divorce," he said.
"She's got demons just like everybody else, just like me," he added. "We realize that our demons don't mesh and until both of us get a hold of our personal demons, it's gonna be just difficult for us to stay married. With that being said, that's that, that's the end of that chapter, not the end of the book. Like I said, that's the mother of my kids and I love her to death. We're going to be family forever."
Ne-Yo, real name Shaffer Chimere Smith, and Crystal share two sons. They got engaged in 2015 and married on February 20 the following year after his split from Monyetta Shaw, the mother of his two other kids.
Their breakup came to light after it's discovered she's no longer following him on Instagram and deleted all his pictures from her page. He then took off his wedding ring while dancing to his song with lyrics, "She gave back the wedding ring, I turned it to a pinky ring."
While he confirmed the song was about their relationship, he insisted it's not a diss track.
