Ray J is making it very clear, both publicly and now legally, he isn't ready to give up on his marriage with Princess Love ... asking the court to once again throw out his divorce.
According to the legal docs obtained by TMZ, Ray filed docs Thursday in Los Angeles asking a court to dismiss his divorce from his estranged wife.
If you've been following along, there's been a ton of ups and downs between the two over the years, but now, it looks like they may be attempting to work things out once again.
You'll recall, Princess and Ray J celebrated his 42nd birthday back in January in Vegas ... despite the fact they were going through the divorce. At the time, RJ said he was looking forward to being a happy family and starting "fresh" with Princess.
TMZ broke the story in October 2021 ... Ray first filed for divorce from Princess and cited the usual irreconcilable differences. We spoke to PL a short time after the docs were filed, and she didn't seem like the door was completely closed.
Looks like it's officially still open.

Prince Harry & Meghan Markle Hit The Town For The First Time Since 'Spare' Release
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are pushing through any public pressure to avoid the spotlight -- they were all smiles as they went out for the first time since the release of Harry's infamous memoir.
The couple went out in L.A. Tuesday night ... as Page Six reported, hitting up celeb hot spot San Vicente Bungalows for a date night and they didn't seem bothered by the pouring rain or all the recent pushback they've gotten over his book "Spare."
BTW, the restaurant is part of a very private members-only club so perhaps the night out was an ease back into the public scene.
As you know, Harry's memoir sent shockwaves all over the world as he took direct jabs at members of the royal family.
Prince Harry Says Brother William Attacked Him After Taking Shots at Meghan Markle
You'll recall, he opened up about a ton of things ... at one point, he accused his brother Prince William of physically attacking him and at another point, he got candid about his frostbitten penis. Of course, the book didn't sit well with everyone -- especially folks across the pond.
Perhaps coincidentally, King Charles is reportedly booting his son and daughter-in-law from Frogmore Cottage, formerly the couple's UK home. Adding insult to Harry and Meghan's injury ... the British reports say disgraced Prince Andrew will be moving into the cottage. 😬
As we reported, there's been so much fallout Harry now will be chatting with renowned trauma expert Dr. Gabor Maté this weekend and the whole thing will be live streamed.
Remember, the creators of the show "South Park" even mocked the couple in a recent episode.
Regardless of it all, seems like Meghan and Harry aren't letting all the drama keep them down and out.

Larsa Pippen and Marcus Jordan have reached the "meet the parents" level of their relationship ... which means Scottie Pippen's ex-wife spoke face-to-face with Michael Jordan about dating his son -- and apparently, the G.O.A.T. is totally cool with it.
48-year-old Larsa opened up on going full BF and GF with Marcus, 32, on the "Tamron Hall Show" on Tuesday ... and she said Marcus' mom and pops have no issue with them coupling up -- despite MJ's well-documented beef with his on-court wingman over the years.
Larsa added both families are happy and fine ... and when pressed on whether she's gotten His Airness' blessing, she's adamant Michael isn't intervening and trying to sink their ship.
"Yeah, I feel like we're great, yeah," Larsa told Hall. "I feel like -- we've spent holidays together and it's good. We're in a great place."
Larsa also spoke about the 16-year age difference with Marcus ... and she believes age doesn't determine one's maturity -- and all that matters is that she's happy.
As for why she's dating MJ's son of all people, Larsa said she doesn't care one bit about how Scottie feels about the Jordan clan ... and their relationship wasn't something that was planned.
Larsa said she first met Marcus four years ago at a party in L.A. ... shutting down any notion she knew her man as a kid when they both lived in Chicago as MJ and Scottie racked up championships with the Bulls.
When asked if they're in love ... Larsa said, "I think so. We're in a really good place."
Sorry, Scottie.

Jennifer Hudson and Common aren't doing a good job of defusing all the buzz that they're a couple -- they hit the town together for what certainly looks like a romantic date night.
They were out in Malibu Wednesday night for a dinner at celeb hot spot Nobu -- and they didn't exit with a group of friends ... so it's got all the markings of a cozy night out for 2.
While they avoided any PDA ... their outing won't be a big surprise to fans who've been speculating for months they're a thing.
J Hud and Common have been spending more time together after connecting on the set of the upcoming flick "Breathe."
Back in November, Jennifer was seen riding shotgun with Common after he picked her up from a long day of filming at her talk show studio.
It's been a minute since either was publicly linked to anyone -- the singer and WWE wrestler David Otunga called off their 10-year engagement back in 2017 ... and the rapper famously split from Tiffany Haddish back in 2021.
If they are dating, they're dangerously close to being entertainment's first-ever EGOT couple! Jennifer earned hers with a Tony Award last year, and Common is just a Tony shy of the honor.
Maybe that's the hold-up on going public.😂

TRAVIS BARKER FLEXES BRACE On Finger ... After Drumming Injury
Travis Barker is doing all he can to heal himself before Blink-182's upcoming tour -- he's already wearing medical hardware after suffering from a gnarly finger injury.
Travis and his wife, Kourtney Kardashian, were seen Monday walking hand-in-hand -- gently, we hope -- through the streets of WeHo. Both were slurping iced matcha drinks, so Trav seemed pretty relaxed ... not at all freaking out about his banged-up digit.
If you look closely, you can see his left hand, or at least the damaged finger, is wrapped in a brace.
As we reported ... Blink-182's drummer shared a nasty pic Sunday, showing the bone in his ring finger nearly popping out of the skin.
Travis confirmed the severity of the injury earlier today ... sharing an X-ray, and it's clear his finger is either broken or dislocated.
Of course, this comes at a bad time for TB ... as Blink is set to begin its reunion world tour in less than a month.
We asked Travis about the upcoming tour and his status, but he was mum on the situation.
