Joycelyn Savage Parents Plead with Her to Come Home

The parents of R. Kelly’s girlfriend, Joycelyn Savage, aren’t giving up on her and still plead with her to come home.

Timothy and Jonjelyn Savage told TMZ that they still haven’t made contact with their daughter despite Kelly being found guilty of federal sex crimes and awaiting sentencing.

They want to let her know that her grandfather passed away and her grandmother from cancer, Complex reported.

“We tried to reach out to Joycelyn when my father passed,” her dad said in a video. “We have to always reach out through [Kelly’s] camp.” He explained that they also had to do the same for the death of Jonjelyn’s mother. “No response, whatsoever. … Everybody wants to say she’s grown. Let me hear from a grown woman. I want to hear from my daughter. … I don’t want to hear from no third party. I want to hear exactly from Joycelyn Savage, period.”

“We would like to have a one-on-one discussion with you as a family,” Jonjelyn said. Timothy added, “Listen, Robert is locked up. All these enablers need to move aside. Joycelyn, I need to see you at that funeral. It’s just that simple.”

Joycelyn continues to stand by the singer’s side and has gone to court for fighting the singer’s ex-girlfriend, Azriel Clary.

Clary recently interviewed Gayle King to discuss her 2019 interview with King. During that 2019 interview, Clary and another woman defended Kelly. Clary—who has since testified against Kelly in court—also revealed that she and others were coached before the interview.

In 2020, Jonjelyn approached her daughter following a court hearing for her alleged assault on Clary. Video shows the mother pleading with Joycelyn to speak to her, but unfortunately, her daughter wouldn’t budge.
