As suspected the Patreon account that was created, said to be Joycelyn Savage, indeed wasn’t really her.
R Kelly‘s girlfriend broke her silence in a video obtained by TMZ that refutes the abuse claims stated on Patreon and she said she had nothing to do with that account.
Patreon shut down the alleged Joycelyn account after it couldn’t authenticate the owner’s identity — and according to Joycelyn, she and R. Kelly’s other girlfriend Azriel Clary still supports him.
Meanwhile, R. Kelly is still behind bars … and dealing with multiple federal and state sexual abuse cases, but Joycelyn says she still sees him regularly.
Joycelyn’s family responded to their daughter’s video.
The Savage family attorney, Gerald Griggs, released a statement from Joycelyn’s fam saying … “We’re saddened and disappointed to learn that Joycelyn Savage has said that she was not the person operating the Patreon account.”He continues … “We deeply desired to hear her story and in her own voice outside of the presence of Robert Sylvester Kelly or anyone associated with him. For nearly three years, Joycelyn Savage has not been able to speak outside of a controlled environment created by Mr. Kelly. Her video today was not any different.”Griggs adds … “Although we can now verify that it wasn’t her account, the allegations still remain. These are allegations that our own independent investigation found to be accurate and closely match the details listed in four indictments against Mr. Kelly.”The statement continues … “We are also concerned about who gained access to Joycelyn’s personal Instagram account to mislead the public and her family.”And, it ends with this … “But there is no deception in this fact, for three years, Joycelyn’s family has spent the holidays without their daughter. They love her and long to embrace her once again.”
Hmm… what do y’all think about situation. Leave us a comment below.
