<p id=”par-2_50″><a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/ne-yo-says-his-life-is-bright-and-he-doesnt-need-reality-tv.html/”>Ne-Yo isn’t shy</a> about sharing his relationship style with his fans. He introduced his four girlfriends in a March 2025 <a href=”https://www.instagram.com/p/DG9DrDYy_m4/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Instagram</a> post, referring to the arrangement as his “pyramid.” Ne-Yo assigned each partner a unique nickname: Cristina (“Pretty Baby”), Arielle (“Twin Flame”), Moneii (“Phoenix Feather”), and Brionna (“Sexy Lil’ Somethin’”).</p>
<p id=”par-3_44″>In September 2025, Cardi B spoke to Fat Joe and Jadakiss about <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/cardi-b-spills-prepping-early-little-miss-drama-tour.html/”>her upcoming album, tour</a>, and Ne-Yo’s personal life. The three hip-hop legends talked about how Ne-Yo makes dating four women look “easy,” but Cardi B doubts how simple the process really is.</p>
<p id=”par-4_26″>“I don’t think it’s that easy,” she said. “I don’t care what he says. … He’s making it sound easy, and I know it’s not easy.”</p>
<p id=”par-5_45″>Cardi B noted that having physical intimacy in several relationships at once likely isn’t as glamorous as it sounds, as at least one person in the romance will feel unfulfilled. “That s*** makes you want to argue,” she claimed. “… There has to be turbulence.”</p>

<p id=”par-6_21″><a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/ne-yos-stage-name-was-inspired-by-keanu-reeves-and-the-matrix.html/”>Ne-Yo’s</a> fans are curious about his four current relationships, particularly since he was previously married and in a monogamous relationship. </p>
<p id=”par-7_94″>Cristina, an OnlyFans model, has been in a relationship with Ne-Yo since at least May 2023, according to <a href=”https://people.com/who-are-ne-yo-girlfriends-11694986″ target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>People</a>. Arielle Hill, a photographer, also joined the relationship around the same time. Moneii, another OnlyFans model and aspiring cosmetics entrepreneur, joined the group in July 2024. Brionna Williams, a dancer and mother, entered the polyamorous relationship in December 2024. The women do not live together but reside nearby and occasionally join Ne-Yo on tours. They have been seen together during public outings, such as a shopping trip to Kim Kardashian’s SKIMS store in West Hollywood.</p>
<p id=”par-8_30″>“I think one of the most important things about this is understanding that these are four individual women that need their individual time,” he said while talking to <a href=”https://www.instagram.com/p/DHBa3PKs3q2/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Real 92.3</a>.</p>
