Since Lifestime’s release of the docuseries ‘Surviving R Kelly’, many have been airing their opinion against RnB legend R Kelly who is accused of sexually abusing underaged girls.

Many of his victims who are now full grown adults appeared in the documentary to share what they suffered while in a relationship with the singer. One of such is Andrea Kelly, the singer’s wife.
His daughter Joanne “Buku Abi” Kelly has finally broken her silence concerning the allegations. According to her, they also suffered their own fair share of abuse as his kids.

Read her words:

“Buku here. I just want to say a few things… Before I start I just want it to be known that I am speaking from the heart, nothing I say or do not say is to hurt ANY party reading or affected by this. To the people that feel I should be speaking up/against everything that is going on right now. I just want you all to understand that devastated is an understatement for all that I feel currently. I do apologize if my silence to all that is happening comes off as careless. That is my last intention. I pray for all the families & woman who have been affected by my father’s actions. Trust, I have been deeply affected by all of this. However, It has been very difficult to process it all. Let alone gather all the right words to express everything I feel. Anyone that knows me personally or has been following me through out the years knows that I do not have a relationship with my father. Nor do I speak on him or on his behalf. I also am not fond of dealing with my personal issues or personal life experience through social media but, I feel things are starting to get out of hand. Unfortunately, for my own personal reasonings & for all my family has endured in regards to him, his life decisions, and his last name, it has been years since my siblings and I have seen and or have spoken to him.”
