Joann Lee Kelly on father’s sexual abuse
Joann Lee Kelly in her Instagram story posted on January 10, 2019, addressed the sexual assault allegations pointed to her father, R. Kelly. The statement in her Instagram story read:
“Buku here. I just want to say a few things… Before I start, I just want you to know that I’m speaking from the heart, nothing I say or don’t say is meant to hurt ANY party reading this or affected by it.
For people who feel like I should be speaking out/against everything that is happening right now. I just want everyone to understand that devastated is an understatement for everything I currently feel. I apologize if my silence to everything that is happening seems careless. That’s my last intention. I pray for all the families and women who have been affected by my father’s actions. Trust me, I was deeply affected by it all.
…..
However, it has been very difficult to process all of this. Much less gather all the right words to express everything I feel. Anyone who knows me personally or has followed me over the years knows that I have no relationship with my father. Nor do I speak for him or on his behalf. I also don’t like dealing with my personal issues or personal life through social media, but I feel like things are starting to get out of hand.
Unfortunately, by my own personal reasoning and by all my family who have endured regarding him, his life decisions and his last name, it has been years since my siblings and I have seen or spoken to him. Regarding my mother, she has the same reasoning and hasn’t seen or spoken to my father for years. My mother, brothers and I would never condone, support or be a part of ANY negative THING he has done or continues to do in his life.
Going through everything I’ve been through in my life, I would never want anyone to feel the pain I felt. Reminders of how terrible my father is, and how we should be speaking out against him, rude comments about my family, making up me, my brothers, and the “part” of our mother, etc. It doesn’t help my family (me, my sister, my brother and my mother) in our healing process. Nor does it allow a safe space for other victims who are afraid to speak up, speak up.
….
The same monster you are confronting me about is my father. I am well aware of who and what he is. I grew up in that house. My choice not to talk about him and what he does is for my peace of mind. My emotional state. And for MY healing. I have to do and move in the way that is best for me. I pray that anyone reading this will understand that I put nothing but good intentions behind every word. It took me almost 3 days to write this. I just want everyone to know that I care and love you all. This is a very difficult subject to talk about… again, I apologize if my words didn’t come out right…
To everyone who reached out to my family and me sending good vibes and love… Thank you. You really helped us through this difficult time. The past year for my family has been very difficult, all the love and support from all of you continues to show us why we keep going. All of you supply us. Family, friends, followers, fans, etc. I love you to pieces. Your love is appreciated and will always be returned. For anyone new to my page, I just ask that when you come here, bring peace and nothing else.
Love, Buku Abi.”
