Never is the negative form of ever:
I have never been in Paris.
I have not ever been in Paris.
These two sentences mean the same thing.
"Never ever" in your sentence above just emphasizes the "never."
So, for example:
Parent: "Would you ever do that?"
Child: "No, I would never ever ever do that!"

I have never ever been in Paris is a stronger way to say you have never been there. If someone does not believe you when you say never, then we say "never ever".
