Singer and actor Ray J was seemingly arrested by the police following a concerning altercation with his wife, Princess Love, in Los Angeles this week. The couple had been amid their divorce proceedings while the detainment took place on March 13.

The reality star had filed for a divorce for the fourth time when Ray J came back from tour and, according to the star, became aggressive. Sometime during their confrontation, Princess called the police and claimed that her husband was possibly under the influence and was acting aggressively and creating a ruckus.

After officers arrived at the scene, they handcuffed the singer to defuse the situation and placed him in their squad car to figure out the situation. Realizing that Ray had committed known crimes and after talking to both the parties involved, the charges were dropped, and Ray J was free to go.


Ray J and Princess Love's turbulent marriage

The couple has had a rocky relationship since their marriage in 2016 with Princess filing for divorce for the first time in 2020 after a fight in Las Vegas. Through the years, the pair has had numerous breakups, with Ray filing for divorce in September 2020 and then again in October 2021. The most recent filing was done by Princess in February 2024 after their brief reconciliation in January 2023.

When the most recent divorce was filed in 2024, the Love & Hip Hop: Miami star stated,

"It is with heavy hearts that we share the news of our decision to divorce. After much reflection, discussion, and counseling, we have come to the difficult realization that our paths have diverged, and it is in the best interest of both of us to part ways."

The One Wish singer asked for joint legal and physical custody of their children in April 2024 and requested that he and Princess Love pay for their own legal fees, too after splitting their assets down to jewellery and personal items.
