R Kelly’s fiancée Joycelyn Savage says her family’s telling a bunch of lies about her, insisting she’s not a victim or sex slave despite their concern, TMZ reports,
According to the report by TMZ, R Kelly’s Fiancee Joycelyn Savage released a video denying the claims Sunday evening … hitting back at her family after they told us they don’t support R. Kelly’s pardon push ’cause he’s never taken accountability for his actions, and she’s still under his thumb.
R Kelly’s fiancée Joycelyn says she and R. Kelly have been together for 10 years — engaged for the last three — and, they want to get married and start a family together.
Joycelyn is asking everyone not to believe the “lies” her family is telling … putting it in plain English by saying, “I am not held against my will. I am not a sex slave. I am not brainwashed or any of those crazy lies that were told on me.”
Savage asks fans to continue to pray for R. Kelly while he remains incarcerated … sharing her own hope that he will be released from federal custody soon.
Joycelyn’s family — through their attorney Gerald Griggs — claims they haven’t heard directly from Joycelyn in years — and, she says that’s because she just doesn’t want to talk to them. Nothing nefarious, just a fractured family relationship.
R. Kelly was convicted of racketeering and sex trafficking in 2021 — and then convicted for child pornography and enticing minors for sex the following year. Last week in prison, R. Kelly alleges there was a plot to kill him that landed him in the hospital.
