The secret settlement aimed to put the ordeal to rest once and for all. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe parties have agreed to enter this agreement addressing all past, current, or future claims, disputes, causes of action, defenses, and alleged losses, including without limitation, all claims and defenses arising out of or concerning the subject matter of the sex tape,\u201d stated the legal document.<\/p>\n<p>The document even ensured major companies like Hulu and Disney were not liable for any claims as well, especially as the streamer airs \u201cThe Kardashians.\u201d Despite the settlement\u2019s signing, the two unfriendly exes have <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.blackenterprise.com\/ray-j-accuses-kim-kardashian-and-kris-jenner-lawsuit\/\">regained the spotlight<\/a> for new claims regarding their taped encounter. <\/p>\n<p>News of the settlement came to light amid Kardashian and Jenner\u2019s defamation lawsuit against Ray J. The legal issue stemmed from the  \u201cI Hit It First\u201d singer claiming that the mother-daughter duo were under a federal investigation, an assertion both women have denied.  <\/p>\n<p>In response, Ray J filed a counter-suit, denying Kardashian\u2019s story that their sex tape leaked to the internet without her consent. He also confirmed that he got a $6 million check in the effort to silence him from speaking on the Skims founder and the 2007 tape. <\/p>\n<p>The sex tape arguably catapulted Kardashian and her family to mega-stardom. The interest on the Hollywood socialite and her multiple siblings led to their reality show \u201cKeeping Up With the Kardashians,\u201d which ran for 20 seasons on the E! Network. <\/p>\n<p>While he was legally obligated to not speak on the sex tape, Ray J says that his part of the deal became void after Kardashian and Jenner discussed the video on their reality show. Now, the near decades-old tape has found new life as the ex-lovers-turned-adversaries continue their legal battle. <\/p>\n<p>RELATED CONTENT:  <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.blackenterprise.com\/ray-j-reflects-on-turbulent-year-promises-major-personal-shift\/\">Ray J Grows Up After Turbulent Year, Promises Major Personal Shift<\/a><\/p>\n<p>      <!-- CONTENT END 1 --><\/p><\/div>\n<p><script>\n    !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n    {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n        n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n        if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n        n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n        t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n        s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window, document,'script',\n        'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n    fbq('init', '709767812947612');\n    fbq('track', 'PageView');\n<\/script><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.blackenterprise.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Nahlah Abdur-Rahman March 29, 2026 The two famed exes remain in a legal and public battle over their recounts of the sex tape&#8217;s release.
