The longstanding conflict between Ray J and Kim Kardashian has reached new heights as the Kardashian family has intensified their legal battle against the singer. Recent court filings reveal allegations that Ray J has engaged in what the family describes as a years-long pattern of damaging public statements against the reality TV star and entrepreneur.

According to court documents, Kris Jenner, Kim Kardashian’s mother, has filed a declaration accusing Ray J of “publicly terrorizing” her daughter for nearly two decades. The 70-year-old matriarch reportedly submitted this statement as part of an ongoing defamation lawsuit against the singer, claiming his recent public comments have crossed significant boundaries.

Jenner’s legal filing states that she decided to pursue litigation after Ray J made what she characterized as “outrageous and untrue” allegations that she and Kardashian were under federal investigation. The businesswoman and reality TV star explicitly denied ever facing criminal charges or accusations, calling Ray J’s comparison to the legal situation involving Sean “Diddy” Combs “a horrific lie.”

The declaration addresses specific comments Ray J reportedly made during a livestream and in a documentary appearance. In these instances, he allegedly suggested that “racketeering charges against the Kardashians would be appropriate.” Jenner’s filing characterizes these statements as false and harmful, claiming they triggered a substantial wave of negative attention and caused “significant emotional distress” for her daughter.

“My family is of the utmost importance to me,” Jenner reportedly wrote in her declaration. “It is deeply painful to watch my daughter experience the stress brought upon her by [Ray J].” She added that she felt “deeply angered, insulted, and shaken” by the accusations, expressing concern about potential negative impacts on the substantial business empire Kardashian has built throughout her career.

The filing represents an unusual step for Jenner, who noted that she has never previously sued anyone for defamation in her decades-long public life. However, she stated that Ray J’s recent statements were “inexcusable and deeply painful,” compelling her to take legal action rather than continue watching her daughter endure what she described as a “campaign of harassment.”

Kim Kardashian has reportedly submitted her own declaration in the case, expressing concern that Ray J’s allegations could potentially jeopardize her ongoing efforts to become a lawyer. The SKIMS founder and reality star also revealed that the situation has forced her to have “tough conversations” with her four children about the public controversy.

This legal escalation marks a significant development in the contentious history between Ray J and Kardashian, whose relationship has been strained since their intimate relationship in the early 2000s. Their private life became public through the release of a sex tape in 2007, which preceded the launch of “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” and the family’s rise to global fame.

The ongoing legal battle highlights the enduring tensions between the former couple, with both sides making serious allegations against each other over the years. Ray J has previously made his own accusations against the Kardashian family, creating a complex web of claims and counterclaims that has now moved into the formal legal arena.

As the case progresses through the courts, it represents another chapter in the high-profile relationship that has frequently captured public attention and tabloid headlines for nearly two decades. The outcome could have significant implications for both parties’ public images and professional endeavors.
