Muni Long Reveals She and Husband Split After 9 Years of Marriage: ‘I Don’t Have Time for Nonsense’
In a recent radio interview, the Grammy winner said her marriage to Raysean Hairston “just didn’t work out”
Muni Long and her husband Raysean Hairston have parted ways.
During an interview on Real 92.3’s The Cruz Show, the singer/songwriter, 35, revealed that after nine years the couple’s relationship “just didn’t work out.”
While discussing her new album Revenge, released Aug. 30, Long elaborated on her love life. As she touched on the album’s closer “Ruined Me,” she revealed the song was inspired by her split from Hairston.

“I always pull from real experiences because I’m writing from my unique perspective. I can only talk about what I know. But this is the first time I’m putting my real life in it. It’s no secret…I’ve been married for nine years…it just didn’t work out, you know?” the “Made for Me” singer said.
Long, who shares a toddler son with Hairston, added that she doesn’t “have time for drama.”
“I don’t have time for nonsense,” she said. “This is one of the most amazing times in my life, and if you can’t celebrate that with me, I’m so sorry, but I’m going to have to leave you behind. I cannot. You wake up every day mad, and there’s literally nothing to be upset about. We have a beautiful child, we’re good. We might owe some bills, but everybody has that.”
While Long loved her ex, she ultimately didn’t want to wait around for him to mature.
“I think it takes incredible strength to realize that this was the love of my life at one point — and he probably could be really good for me if he got it together — but I’m not willing to put my life, my passion, and my happiness on hold for you to catch up. Unfortunately, you might get it in a year…but I’m sorry, I’m probably already over it,” the “Pain” performer said.

In February 2023, Long praised her marriage in an interview with NPR. “We’ve been married for eight years, and I think just, like, I’ve never had intimacy before… I think everybody deserves at least once in their life to know what that feels like,” she said.
In September 2023, Long reflected on winning a Grammy for best R&B song for her sexy viral hit “Hrs & Hrs”.
“From the outside looking in you may say, ‘Well, now you’ve accomplished some amazing things you can take a back seat and let your business run’,” she told PEOPLE. “[But] it’s actually the opposite, I have to be more involved.”
