Joycelyn Savage returned to Instagram this week after a two-year social hiatus to share a post announcing she created a page on Patreon, the paid membership platform generally for artists and creators, to share her story about life with an alleged boyfriend, R. Kelly. Savage said she would reveal new “chapters” about her life with Kelly every day on her Patreon blog, adding that she is “risking [her] life” with the blog because some of the details she will share are protected by non-disclosure agreements.
In her first Patreon post, Savage explained how she met Kelly at one of his concerts in 2015 and how she thought he would help her become a model and singer. Savage went on to explain that Kelly would buy her clothes and give her money and that she “had everything I needed.”
“I didn’t have nothing to worry about at the time,” Savage wrote, according to The Hollywood Reporter. “We also did a couple of songs together in his studio which he promised me he would release on his platform. Which never seen the day of light, Robert told me soo many lies my 19-year-old mind believed every one of them.”
Savage shared that her relationship with Kelly changed after a few months of living with him. “Robert started giving me commands and making sure I call him by certain names like ‘Master’ or ‘Daddy’ which I didn’t really care for at the time. If I wasn’t getting paid or pursuing my dream I would’ve went home, but all of that didn’t stop just yet. But it started getting worse by day by day, he would raise his voice at me if I didn’t call him by those two names. If Robert called me I would have to reply with ‘Yes, daddy’ or ‘Please daddy’ he was so controlling.”
Kelly’s attorney, Steve Greenberg, responded to Savage’s claims in a statement to Variety. “It is unfortunate that Jocelyn now seeks to make money by exploiting her long time, loving relationship with Robert. Obviously if she were to tell the truth no one would pay so she has, unfortunately, chosen to regurgitate the stories and lies told by others for her own personal profit,” Greenberg said. “We know the real facts, and it was not until the money ran out that she decided anything was wrong. Hopefully people will see it for the obvious profiteering it is.”
