R. Kelly is the defendant in a lawsuit filed in Mississippi by a man who claims the singer broke up his marriage. According to court documents, Kenny, a Mississippi sheriff’s deputy, alleges that his wife, Asia, carried on an affair with R. Kelly for years.
The lawsuit says Asia told Kenny she had seen R. Kelly before the couple married, but that she assured him the relationship was over. The couple married in July 2012. The filing alleges the contact picked back up that October and continued for about five years, including meetups in several states along with phone calls and text messages. Kenny also claims Asia pushed for the family to move to Atlanta, and he says the move put a serious financial strain on him.
Kenny is seeking damages and says the singer’s conduct caused him “emotional, psychological and financial loss.” Everything described here comes from the allegations in a civil lawsuit, and none of it has been proven in court.
R. Kelly had not publicly responded to the allegations when this story was published.
