Ray J did not waste any time responding to the chaos that unfolded on Thanksgiving. After being released from custody, he hopped online to “set the record straight” in a video where he explained his side of the now-viral incident involving Princess Love, their children, and another man.
According to Ray J, the situation began as a regular argument inside his home. He said he and Princess were having a disagreement, but things took a turn when she decided to leave and tried to take their children with her in the middle of the night. In the video, Ray J insisted that one of the kids was asleep in his bed at the time, and he did not understand why Princess wanted to wake them up “into this grown up argument.”
In his version of events, another man entered the bedroom where his child was sleeping, which he said immediately crossed a line for him. Ray J emphasised repeatedly that the adults involved had been drinking and that he was not comfortable with anyone driving off with the kids under those conditions.
From his perspective, everything escalated because he was standing firm on protecting his children by getting his gun. “I’m going to defend my kids, and I’m going to defend my space,” he said, adding that he believed law enforcement would understand the situation once they arrived. Instead, he ended up being the one taken into custody.
Ray J described the moment as chaotic and emotional, saying the children woke up crying amid all the shouting and confusion. He maintained that he never put his hands on Princess or anyone else, explaining that the only time he reacted physically was when he felt someone was trying to remove his child from the bed.
He ended his video on a calmer note, saying he hates that the situation escalated the way it did, but stood firm on one point: he loves his kids and was not going to play about their safety.
