Kim Kardashian and Ray J signed a secret “Confidential Settlement Agreement and Mutual General Release” in 2023 regarding their infamous 2007 sex tape, aimed at resolving ongoing legal disputes and ensuring confidentiality.

The agreement involved Ray J reportedly receiving $6 million to keep silent about the tape and related issues. The agreement was sealed with signatures from both their mothers.

The settlement included a strict non-disparagement clause, preventing either party from making negative comments about the other’s reputation.

Despite the settlement, Ray J filed a countersuit in 2025, claiming that Kim and Kris violated the agreement by discussing the tape in their Hulu series, “The Kardashians.”
