Ray J Arrested After Threatening Ex-Wife with Gun During Live Stream
R&B singer William Ray Norwood Jr., better known by his stage name Ray J, has been arrested on charges of making a criminal threat after allegedly pointing a gun at his ex-wife, Princess Love, during a heated argument on Thanksgiving.
The incident unfolded live on stream, where the couple was engaged in a fierce dispute over custody of their children. According to TMZ, video footage shows Ray J pulling out a gun and threatening to harm anyone who gets close to the door, while Love holds one of their children and claims he pointed a firearm at her. However, when confronted about his actions, Ray J denies having done so.
The Los Angeles Police Department was called to the scene after reports of assault with a deadly weapon and domestic violence were made. Ray J was subsequently arrested and charged with making a criminal threat. He was booked at the Van Nuys Station and released on $50,000 bond later that night.
This is not the first time Ray J has been in trouble with the law. In recent months, he has been involved in several high-profile disputes, including a countersuit against Kim Kardashian and Kris Jenner, whom he claims are responsible for releasing the sex tape that allegedly launched Kim's career.
The singer, who starred on VH1's reality show "Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood" alongside Princess Love from 2014 to 2019, has been embroiled in a lengthy divorce saga. The couple married in 2016 and have two children together, but Love filed for divorce – her fourth filing – in 2024.
The incident on Thanksgiving highlights the ongoing tensions between Ray J and Princess Love, who have had a tumultuous relationship over the years.

just watched this crazy livestream of Ray J threatening his ex with a gun during their custody dispute... like what even is going on with these celebs? 
anyway, the fact that it happened live on stream is wild, I mean, can't they just have a calm conversation about co-parenting or something? 
and $50k bond later, already released, already back to drama land... ugh.
. And can we talk about the double standard here? Princess Love's actions are being scrutinized so much more than Ray J's, it's like she's the villain or something. Meanwhile, Ray J gets to claim victimhood and has a whole narrative of "poor me" going on... idk, just feels like we're perpetuating toxic masculinity over here 
. And have you seen their whole divorce saga? It's like they're both just stuck in this cycle of anger and hurt... 
. and did u know that the average cost of a divorce is around $120k? 
ray J's lawyers are reportedly working on reducing his bond, but I'm thinking $50k might be a bit low considering the severity of the situation 
Ray J pulling out a gun during a live stream with his ex-wife?! What kind of sick, twisted game is he playing here?! 
I'm literally shaking just thinking about it... Princess Love holds one of their kids and tries to protect him from this psycho, while Ray J denies everything... give me a break! 
so ray j pulls out a gun on his ex wife live on stream and now he's in trouble... like what even is the point of having all that power if u r gonna use it to threaten ppl?? and princess love holding their kid and trying to stay safe meanwhile ray j is denying everything lol like who does that? 
anyway i dont really get why they need a 50k bond but idk maybe its just the system being slow or something...
... and doing it live on stream, in front of who knows how many people?! That's just sick 
.
. Ray J has a history of drama, but this is just taking it too far... like, he should be worried about his own well-being right now, let alone anyone else 
.
during a livestream arguement over custody of ther kids. like, what even is this?? he pulls out a firearm and threatens to harm ppl who get close to the door, but when asked about it, he says didnt do it 
I feel so bad for Princess Love, she's just trying to protect their kids and he's going around being super aggressive. And now he's got charges against him... it's just crazy how these celebs think they're above the law 
. But, like, what even is a sex tape doing in all this? 
.
i mean i feel bad for princess love and their kids, but come on ray j, you gotta chill 
he's been in so many drama-filled situations already, like that kim kardashian thing... and now this? it's just too much 
idk man, i feel bad for princess love too, she must be shaking right now 
but more importantly, what about Princess Love and their kids? Do they deserve to live in fear because Ray J can't keep it together 
his ex-wife princess love is basically shaking in her boots right now, and honestly, who can blame her?
