Kelly wrote about being sexually abused as a child by an older woman in his autobiography.
In his 2012 memoir “Soulacoaster,” Kelly wrote about being sexually abused as a child by an older woman, who he referred to as a relative.
In an interview with GQ, Kelly said the abuse went on from around age 7 or 8 to 14 or 15 and occurred every other day or week.
He has been accused of sexual misconduct several times.
He married a 15-year-old Aaliyah in 1994, faking her age in a falsified marriage certificate.
The late singer Aaliyah Haughton, who died tragically in a plane crash at age 22, met R. Kelly when she was 12 years old.
In 1994, after the two formed a close partnership, Kelly, 27, secretly married 15-year-old Aaliyah using a falsified marriage certificate in which she lied about being 18 years old.
Eventually, Aaliyah’s family found out about the controversial marriage and the two ended the union with an annulment.
Kelly and Aaliyah also began recording the album “Age Ain’t Nothing But a Number” in 1993.
He was sued in April 2017 for an alleged affair with a deputy’s wife.
In April 2017, Kelly was accused of being involved with the wife of Kenny Bryant, a deputy in the Mississippi Hinds County Sheriff’s Department.
Asia Childress, Bryant’s wife, lied about ending the relationship with Kelly when she and Bryant married.
Eventually, Childress convinced Bryant to move to Georgia for his career, but “the ulterior motive … was to foster her relationship with R. Kelly,” the lawsuit read.
Bryant said he went through “grievous mental and emotional distress” and “financial ruin.”
He married Andrea, his former backup dancer, in 1996. The couple has three children.
They divorced in 2009 after almost 13 years of marriage.

In July 2017, Kelly was accused of forcing girls to stay in an ‘abusive cult.’
In May 2018, the ‘Women of Color’ branch of the ‘Time’s Up’ movement called for a boycott of Kelly’s music and performances over the many allegations against him.
The boycott was accompanied by a social media campaign called ‘Mute R. Kelly.’
On March 6, 2019, Kelly was taken back to the ‘Cook County Jail’ after failing to pay $161,633 in child support. On March 9, 2019, he was released after someone, who didn’t want to be identified, paid off the child support.
Kelly’s music has been used in many film soundtracks, including ‘American Reunion,’ ‘The Hangover Part III,’ ‘Ice Age: The Meltdown,’ and ‘Fun with Dick and Jane.’
He has also been featured in video games, including ‘Grand Theft Auto IV.’ Many hip hop and R&B artists have sampled his music.
