Kim Kardashian & Kris Jenner
Wrote $7 Million Demand Letter to Ray J
Over Sex Tape Deal
Published
Kim Kardashian and her mom, Kris Jenner, demanded Ray J pay them $7 million for breaching their secret 2023 deal over the infamous sex tape … TMZ has learned.
TMZ obtained the legal letter, dated October 3, 2025, from Kim and Kris’ legal team to Ray J.
The letter claimed Ray J violated the deal, which had a non-disclosure clause provision barring the parties from talking about the sex tape or making false claims. But the docs don’t stop there …
Per the 2023 deal, Kim and Kris initially agreed to pay Ray J a total of $6 million … with payments were broken down into installments of $3 million paid within 30 days of the deal being executed, another $1 million paid by April 2024, another $1 million paid by April 2025, and the last $1 million payment due in 2026.
But in May 2025, Kim and Kris’ lawyers sent Ray J a letter demanding the return of the $5 million that had been paid to Ray J to date … plus an additional $1 million for Kim and $1 million for Kris for his alleged breaches of the NDA.
“My clients take this matter very seriously and unless your client complies with the foregoing, the Kardashians will file legal action to enforce their rights,” the letter read.
The legal team sent Ray J another letter in October 2025, which alleged Ray J had violated the deal again by talking about the sex tape deal on a live stream.
Kim and Kris said that due to Ray J’s breach, they were not on the hook for the last $1 million owed in 2026 and again demanded he immediately return the $5 million he’d already received under the deal.

As TMZ first reported, late last year, Kim and Kris sued Ray J for defamation over his comments that they were the subject of a federal criminal racketeering investigation. Ray J countersued, denying that his statements amounted to defamation and claiming the mother-daughter duo broke their secret 2023 agreement by talking about the sex tape on their Hulu reality show.
