Ray J is grappling with significant legal challenges following his arrest on Thanksgiving, where he allegedly pointed a gun at his wife, Princess Love, during a livestream. As a result of these allegations, a judge has extended a restraining order against him, preventing him from seeing his children this Christmas. The charges brought against him include brandishing a firearm, use of force, and child endangerment, as reported by AllHipHop.
In a video captured by The Shade Room, Ray J expressed his sorrow over missing Christmas and his son’s birthday, stating, “Man, I don’t even want to talk about it. I’m missing my kids.” His son, Epik, is set to turn six years old while the restraining order remains in effect.
Following his arrest, Ray J was released on bail after posting $50,000. He has consistently denied the allegations, asserting in an interview with TMZ that he “would never point a gun at anybody, including Princess Love.” His claims have been met with skepticism, particularly after Princess Love urged him to seek help, saying in a video, “Check yourself into rehab, because you’re more than drunk.”
While Ray J and Princess Love married in 2016, their relationship has been tumultuous, with Love most recently filing for separation in February 2024. In another livestream, Ray J described feeling threatened when Love and her cousin attempted to pick up their children, stating, “I’m going to defend my kids and I’m going to defend my space. For my kids, I’m doubling down on that.”
This situation underscores the growing tensions between the couple, as Ray J navigates both personal and legal ramifications. The impact on their family dynamic, particularly during the festive season, raises important questions about the well-being of their children amidst ongoing disputes.
As the legal proceedings unfold, the future of their relationship remains uncertain, and both parties will likely face intense scrutiny from the public and media alike.
