R. Kelly’s live-in girlfriend has dropped more bombshell accusations against him, claiming he impregnated her twice then forced her to get abortions in his own home to prevent news from breaking out.
Joycelyn Savage, 24, broke her silence over the embattled R&B singer on Saturday and announced she’d recount her experiences with Kelly on an online subscription service called Patreon.
By Sunday morning Savage had posted three times, revealing the harrowing alleged sexual and psychological abuse and unwanted pregnancies she suffered after moving in with Kelly when she was just 19.
She alleged that Kelly got her pregnant in late 2016 and again in 2018 but was forced to get abortions both times, which were performed at his house.

On Sunday she revealed she got pregnant by Kelly twice and each time he forced her to get an abortion. She shared this screenshot on Instagram on Sunday saying she saved her pregnancy test as proof
She said that in 2016 she heard rumors that Kelly had contracted herpes and tried to use condoms to ‘protect herself’, but she still ended up getting pregnant.
‘I realized I was pregnant by this monster. Eventually, I ended up getting an abortion I was forced to get the surgery done at his house,’ Savage wrote, according to the Chicago Sun Times.
‘I never had surgery done in my life so that was really shocking and a scary moment for me. He didn’t want me going to the hospital because the news would break out,’ she added.
R. Kelly, 52, is currently in jail and faces a total of 18 federal counts including child pornography, kidnapping and forced labor.
In her Patreon posts she also revealed that the singer demanded she call him ‘Daddy’ and Master’.
She recounted on Sunday that on one occasion she called him ‘babe’ instead and ‘He grabbed me and choked me until I blacked out.’

‘I had bruises around my neck, and I was told by him to wear a turtle necks or a scarf to cover them up whenever he would take me out in public,’ she said. ‘I was frightened to tell anyone about this because of what he may do next.’
In Savage’s post she wrote that R. Kelly would often bring young girls into his home.
‘Robert would bring different girls home that stayed just like me, and they were definitely younger then [sic] me.’
‘I couldn’t talk to any of them until it was my time I had to wait in my room until Rob was ready for me or his assistant will come in get me,’ Savage posted Sunday, according to the Daily Beast, which accessed the post behind her subscription paywall.
‘I was forced to come out of my room some days I didn’t feel like being Roberts cum rag or punching bag.’
She added that in the home, she was constantly under the watchful eye of Kelly’s assistant.
‘I didn’t have any privacy at all,’ she revealed. Kelly’s ‘assistant would have to be by the door while I shower.’
‘I kept thinking to myself he just wants me to be safe, he wants the best for me he thinks someone is going to take me away from him,’ Savage posted on Sunday.
She said that Kelly used her for sex or as a ‘punching bag’ and to explore his sexual fetishes including urinating on women.
‘I’ve been peed on numerous of times I really didn’t want to say this but the truth needs to be heard.’

Savage met Kelly in 2015 when she was 17 and he promised to make her the ‘next Aaliyah’. She soon after dropped out of college and moved into his home when she was 19 following promises of a music career.
‘Robert told me soo many lies my 19 year old mind believed everyone of one them,’ Savage wrote. ‘If anyone offered you millions of dollars and asked you to be with them you’d do it.’
On Sunday she said: ‘The only time he would care for me is when the media is making him seem bad and saying that I was kept for hostage’.
After Savage started to post about her time with Kelly, the singer’s attorney Steve Greenberg hit back with a series of since-deleted tweets on Saturday.
‘It’s unfortunate that Joycelyn now seeks to make money by exploiting her long time, loving relationship with Robert,’ Greenberg said. ‘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.’
‘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,’ he added.
Savage’s tell-all posts come after two years of social media silence.
She announced this week on Instagram she announced she’d finally speak out about her time as Kelly’s girlfriend.
‘Things I am going to reveal that was sweared not to see the day of light — by NDA. I am risking my life for many others. This story is 18+ and only for mature audience, I want to make sure my story is very detailed as I can remember,’ she said.
It is the first time that Savage has spoken out against Kelly, whom she supported after his arrest in January by attending court hearings alongside Kelly’s other live-in girlfriend, Azriel Clary.
The two women appeared in a televised interview in March defending R. Kelly, and claiming that their own parents were scheming to blackmail Kelly.
In the interview, Savage and Clary both proclaimed their love for the singer, and dismissed all of the sex crime allegations against him as lies.
Confronted directly with the allegation that they had been brainwashed by Kelly, the women denied it.
In September, Kelly complained in a court filing that both of his girlfriends were not able to visit him behind bars at the same time.
Robert Sylvester Kelly is being held without bond at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Chicago pending trial.
Kelly has pleaded not guilty to federal charges against him in Chicago and New York, where he is accused of a racketeering scheme to sexually abuse girls.
His next court hearing is set for February 13.
