Ne Yo and Monyetta Shaw appeared a happy couple on “Behind The Music,” but the couple has had some tough times.
Reliving the good and bad, Ne-Yo says he couldn’t let Monyetta get away while she claims it wasn’t like meeting Ne-Yo the superstar. Instead being with Ne-Yo is like being with Shaffer Smith, a regular guy.
“It literally felt like we had known each other our whole lives,” Ne-Yo said on “Behind The Music” Sunday.
Shortly after the couple moved in together in 2010, Monyetta revealed news that she was pregnant. Bittersweet, the news was hard to take for Ne-Yo considering drama that had played out with an ex who birthed a son he thought was his. Even though it had been over three years since he had seen Jessica White and the boy he thought was his, Ne-Yo (with an extra push from his mother) asked Monyetta to take a paternity test.
“I was 100 percent terrified when I found out that “Mo” was pregnant. It instantly took me back to the whole Jessica White situation… I sat her down (and said) I just need you to know I’m over the moon happy but at the same time I’m scared because I can’t do that again. My heart can’t take that again. That was emotional for the both of us,” said Ne-Yo.
Even though she didn’t admit to feeling insulted, Monyetta said it was really hard to deal with his request.
“That hit me really hard. Like, I was shocked. Oh my gosh. I don’t like to talk about it,” she told VH1. “It definitely affected him and I didn’t like seeing him like that.”
Looking back now with two children, Monyetta Shaw went on to say “It was amazing to see him hold her (their daughter). He was so happy.”
Ne-Yo and Monyetta appeared on VH1’s “Behind The Music” Sunday.

It seems like Ne-Yo and Monyetta Shaw have been through it all. From marriage to a contentious split, the former couple has shared their story with the world. Now, they’re opening up even more in an episode of VH1’s Behind The Music series. In this revealing feature, Ne-Yo and Monyetta discuss paternity tests, love, and lessons learned on how to move forward after a difficult breakup.

For those who don’t know them personally, Ne-Yo and Monyetta had quite the tumultuous ride during their relationship. After getting together in 2009, the two would go on to get married later that year in Atlanta. But despite being seemingly happy for years, things started going downhill when rumors began circulating about infidelity from both sides. Eventually leading to their separation in 2013, Ne-Yo and Monyetta’s journey was filled with ups and downs and plenty of drama along the way.

Now, finally putting everything out there once and for all on VH1’s Behind The Music series is none other than Ne-Yo himself alongside his ex-wife Monyetta Shaw; ready to tell their full story without leaving anything out – including paternity tests results! With so much left unknown between these two until now, viewers can expect unprecedented access into one celebrity relationship gone wrong.

Relationship History

Ne-Yo and Monyetta Shaw had a tumultuous relationship that spanned over thirteen years. The two initially met at the 2006 BET Awards show and began dating shortly after. They quickly fell in love, got engaged, and were married by 2008.

The couple welcomed their first child together soon after getting married, with Ne-Yo being present for the birth of his daughter Madilyn Grace Smith. However, they faced difficulties when it came to having children, as Monyetta made the decision to get her tubes tied without consulting Ne-Yo beforehand, leading him to feel “betrayed”. Despite this setback, they welcomed their second child Shaffer Chimere Smith Jr., commonly known as “Shay”, in 2010.

At this point in time, tensions between them only increased due to problems arising from both sides of the family; not long afterwards, Ne-Yo filed for divorce in 2013 citing irreconcilable differences. As part of an episode of VH1’s Behind The Music series focused on Ne-Yo’s life story, he and Monyetta discussed how difficult it was coming to terms with their split while also attempting to remain amicable co-parents for the sake of their children. In addition to discussing topics like parenting roles following their separation and taking a paternity test (which confirmed that Shay is indeed Ne-Yo’s son), they opened up about what still remained between them: unconditional love despite no longer being together romantically.

Results Of Paternity Test

Despite the end of their romance, Ne-Yo and Monyetta were able to come together in order to provide a stable home life for Madilyn and Shay. After suspicions arose that he may not be the father of his second child, they decided to take a paternity test which confirmed that Ne-Yo is indeed Shay’s biological father. This was an important step for them as it allowed both parents to move forward confidently with joint parenting responsibilities without any doubts continuing to linger over who really fathered the child.

The process wasn’t easy, however; taking a paternity test brought up difficult emotions such as fear and anxiety due to potential ramifications if the results did not turn out in favor of either parent. Despite these challenges, Ne-Yo and Monyetta found strength in each other during this trying time. They were able to stay focused on putting their children first by creating a safe space for them where love could still exist between two divorced parents.

This experience was certainly a lesson in resilience and forgiveness for both Ne-Yo and Monyetta, allowing them to find peace while navigating uncharted waters. While they are no longer romantically involved, they have managed to establish a successful co-parenting relationship based on respect, understanding, and unconditional love – something many can learn from when faced with similar struggles in relationships.

Conclusion

I. Conclusion
In conclusion, it is clear that Ne-Yo and Monyetta have been through a lot as a couple. They faced the difficult decision of taking a paternity test to determine if he was indeed the father of their children. Ultimately, they were both relieved when the results confirmed his parentage. Despite some bumps in their relationship journey, they showed true commitment by being honest with each other and continuing to work on their shared goal of raising two healthy children together.

II. Reflection on Their Story
Their story shows us how important it is to communicate openly and honestly with our partners no matter what challenges come our way. It also highlights the power of love and forgiveness even when circumstances are uncertain or challenging. I admire Ne-Yo and Monyetta’s courage for facing this situation head-on and not allowing it to tear them apart. In doing so, they provide an example for couples everywhere about how relationships can survive despite adversity if we remain committed to working through problems together.

III. Takeaway Message
The message here is simple: never give up on your partner just because things get tough – instead, lean into those moments with communication, understanding, love, and patience; you may find that your bond grows stronger than ever before!
