Kim Kardashian and Kris Jenner are facing a new legal setback in their long-running dispute with Ray J after a Los Angeles Superior Court judge reportedly denied their request to keep portions of a 2023 settlement sealed from public view. According to reporting from outlets including Rolling Stone and Yahoo Entertainment, the judge ruled that the pair did not provide enough evidence showing that public access to the agreement would cause them harm.
The settlement is tied to Ray J’s claim that he was paid $6 million in 2023 to remain quiet about the infamous sex tape controversy that helped catapult the Kardashian family into global fame. Ray J has argued that the agreement was meant to resolve all outstanding issues between the two sides, while the newly unsealed details are now bringing fresh attention back to one of pop culture’s most talked-about feuds.
The legal fight has played out across multiple filings, with Ray J previously alleging that the Kardashians were trying to silence him and Kim and Kris pushing back against those claims. For now, the judge’s ruling means more of the settlement record is open to the public, and the saga that helped shape reality TV history is once again back in the spotlight.
