Brandy just filed a $5 MILLION lawsuit against Boyz II Men’s Wanya Morris, accusing him of 𝐒.𝐀. when she was only 15-16…

Wanya himself admitted on camera he 𝐬𝐥𝐞𝐩𝐭 with her as a teen — while laughing it off.

The silence is over. Brandy has lawyered up and is suing Boyz II Men’s Wanya Morris for $5 million—alleging sexual assault stemming from a relationship that began when she was just 15 years old and he was 22.

For decades, the public viewed their connection as a secret romance between two young R&B stars. Now, Brandy is calling it something else entirely: grooming.

“For years, I struggled with how I was treated in this relationship,” Brandy wrote in her new memoir. “I saw a 15-year-old girl with rising fame and admiration for his talent, and I believe he deliberately took advantage. This was a 22-year-old man who I believe knew exactly what he was doing when he pursued an underage girl.”

The two first crossed paths in 1994 when they worked together on the hit single “Brokenhearted.” Brandy was 14 or 15 at the time. Morris was 22. By 1995, when Brandy—then 16—landed a gig as the opening act for Boyz II Men, the biggest group in the world at the time, the relationship had already turned physical.

“Looking back, it seems like he chose this moment carefully,” she wrote. “Reaching out to me when I was young, newly successful, and vulnerable to the attention of someone I idolized. At the time, it felt like a fairy tale. Now I see it as the beginning of a calculated courtship of a teenage girl by a grown man.”

Brandy grew up in a strict Christian home in Carson, California. She was sheltered, insecure about her looks, and often teased. “Only thing I had going for me was the fact that I could hit a couple notes,” she once said. By age seven, she was obsessed with Whitney Houston’s voice. But her teachers at Hollywood High Performing Arts Center refused to send her to auditions, convinced she wasn’t good enough.

She signed to Atlantic Records at 14. Her debut album was a hit. She joined the cast of “Moesha” and became a music and television superstar. But behind the scenes, she was reportedly bullied by co-stars, battled an eating disorder, and eventually suffered a nervous breakdown that landed her in the hospital.

Her mother, Sonja Norwood, kept pushing her to keep going.

“I just wanted someone to listen to me,” Brandy told Oprah years later. “To see me as a human being. It seemed everyone treated me as if I were an item. I was too embarrassed to tell my mom about some of the things I was experiencing because of the good girl image that had been created for me.”

Oprah asked: “What things are you talking about?”

Brandy answered: “When I was 15, I fell in love with someone who was 20. When I tried to talk to my mom about it, she said, ‘You’re not in love. You don’t know what love is.’”

According to Brandy, her parents had no idea about the relationship with Morris. “I wasn’t in over my head. Sneaking around with Wanya and lying to my parents had become a constant,” she wrote. “They barely liked the idea of me dating at all. Telling them about us was out of the question.”

She added that both she and Morris understood that public knowledge of their relationship would “ignite scandal, potentially threatening everything we both worked for.” So they opted for what she calls “elaborate fiction”—pretending to wait until her 18th birthday before pursuing any romantic connection.

But behind closed doors, the relationship was already physical. Brandy alleges that Morris took her virginity. And because she was a minor, she is now framing that as sexual assault.

“The shame ends here,” she wrote. “The silence ends here. I was not a fast girl with a crush. I was not a dramatic teenager who couldn’t handle rejection. I was not an unstable, obsessive fan. I was a child, and he was an adult. And it’s time the world understood the difference.”

Morris, for his part, has spent years denying that Brandy was underage when they were together—while simultaneously slipping up and admitting the truth.

In a resurfaced interview, when asked about dating a young Brandy, Morris laughed.

“They were saying she was really young when y’all dated,” the interviewer said.

“Yeah, she was,” Morris responded. Then, catching himself: “Not that young. Hold on. That’s why I stopped it and said she wasn’t that young. I don’t want y’all to think—”

“She said she was 15 and she had to keep it a secret,” the interviewer pressed.

“No, no, no. We did the thing when she was like 16, 17 around that time,” Morris said. Then added: “She was old enough to get it.”

The comment has resurfaced as part of Brandy’s legal case.

Morris has also claimed that Brandy’s parents were not only aware of the relationship but actively involved. During an Instagram Live in January 2021, he addressed the situation directly.

“Brandy and I were friends in the beginning,” Morris said. “Her mother reached out to me. Her mother and father were a part of our relationship. They allowed me to guide Brandy and to help her through her career. They understood that we had grown close.”

Brandy’s memoir tells a different story—one of secrecy, lies, and a teenager sneaking around because she knew her parents would never approve.

To make matters messier, Morris was allegedly cheating on Brandy at the time with another singer, Adina Howard, who was also in her twenties. In a resurfaced 2019 clip, Howard laughed off the drama as “two young ladies allowing their egos to get in the way and going through it about a guy.”

Neither woman was the adult in that scenario. Only one of them was a child.

Brandy is now reportedly in the process of filing a $5 million civil lawsuit against Morris for sexual assault. With Morris on tape admitting to being intimate with her before she reached the legal age of consent, legal observers say the case could be a slam dunk.

“The way he talked about it was super disgusting,” one commentator noted after reviewing Morris’s interview.

Brandy’s memoir makes her position clear: “I was not a fast girl with a crush. I was a child, and he was an adult.”

Morris has not publicly responded to the $5 million lawsuit filing. His past statements, however, are now evidence. And as Brandy’s legal team prepares to take this to court, a question that has lingered for nearly three decades may finally get an answer.

What did Wanya Morris know about Brandy’s age? And what did he do anyway?

“The silence ends here,” Brandy wrote.

It just cost $5 million to break it.
