Amid the health crisis, Ne-Yo and Crystal have created fun moments with their children, including eating good food together at home and posting trendy videos on TikTok.
Coming back to her and to their family has been Ne-Yo's best decision. He said the pandemic has impacted his relationship with Smith adding that they love each other despite the difficult times.
