Kim Kardashian and her ex-boyfriend are locked in a heated online feud over the leaked sex tape

Mar 14, 2026

New York [US], March 14: The legal battle between Kim Kardashian and her ex-boyfriend Ray J is far from over. Recently, the billionaire businesswoman asserted that she and her mother did not orchestrate the leak of the sex tape to profit from the scandal, while her opponent vehemently refuted her claims.
According to PageSix on March 13, Ray J is accusing Kim Kardashian and her mother, Kris Jenner, of lying about the infamous 2007 sex tape between him and her. In a filing submitted to the Los Angeles Superior Court on March 11 (local time), the reality TV star and her mother denied Ray J's claim that they orchestrated the release of the sex tape. The two powerful Kardashian-Jenner sisters called it a lie and completely untrue.
In a document obtained by PageSix , Kris Jenner stated: "As a mother, the notion that I staged or produced sex tapes involving my daughter, or had any involvement in creating or distributing any sex tapes, is not only completely false but also deeply offensive, damaging, and has haunted me for decades." The businesswoman said she was heartbroken, devastated, and devastated to see her daughter's most private and intimate moments exposed to the world.
As for Kim Kardashian, she stated that she had to spend money to deal with Ray J's blatant lies, including psychological therapy, working with media, legal, and strategic consultants. The billionaire entrepreneur asserted: "His claim that I planned with my mother and others to release a sex tape, deceive the public, and file a 'fake' lawsuit against the company that released it to 'gain attention' is completely false."
Following Kim Kardashian and Kris Jenner's reaction, Ray J countered that they were completely lying about everything. The singer told TMZ : "Are they crazy? The truth is, if you lie like that under oath, aren't you going to be held accountable and face consequences?" He also emphasized that his children shouldn't grow up thinking their father was involved in distributing a video that was nothing short of pornography or intentionally harming others.
On her personal page, Ray J's mother, Sonja Norwood, also spoke out in defense of her son. "I will not continue to sit idly by and watch my son be criticized and attacked on social media over this issue. While Ray J and I, Kris and Kim, and many others all know the truth," she said. Norwood also emphasized that they will go to great lengths until the truth is revealed to the public.
Kim Kardashian and Ray J dated in the early 2000s. They filmed their intimate moments while enjoying a vacation in Cabo, Mexico. Years later, the sex tape of the couple was leaked, causing a public uproar. Kim Kardashian quickly filed a lawsuit against Vivid Entertainment, the distributor of the tape. However, she soon dropped the lawsuit after reaching a settlement with Vivid for a reported $5 million, allowing them to release the tape.
A few months after the sex tape leak, Kim Kardashian and her family launched the show Keeping Up With the Kardashians, which revolved around their private lives. Thanks to the hype from the scandal, the show immediately became a sensation from the moment it aired, becoming a springboard that transformed the lives of the entire Kardashian-Jenner family. Kim Kardashian herself admitted that this scandal helped her achieve success.
In 2022, Ray J made headlines when he claimed that the sex tape leak from years ago was not an accident but a deliberate plan by Kris Jenner and Kim Kardashian to gain attention and profit. Not stopping at just making accusations, Ray J filed a lawsuit against the famous mother and daughter in November 2025, asserting that they were the ones who leaked the tape. Conversely, Kris Jenner and Kim Kardashian also sued Ray J for persistent harassment and threats through defamatory statements.
In a statement last month, Kris Jenner criticized Ray J for publicly psychologically terrorizing her daughter for nearly 20 years by repeatedly mentioning Kim with negative and false information in order to gain attention. She stated in court filings: "Family is the most important thing to me. It is heartbreaking to see my daughter endure the stress caused by Ray J, along with the hopelessness that his harassment will never end."
