“S urviving R. Kelly” premiered in January and since then R. Kelly has been charged with 10 counts of aggravated sexual abuse for allegedly assaulting three underage girls and one adult woman. One of the women who accused Kelly of abusive in the docuseries was his ex-wife Andrea Kelly , who was married to the singer from 1996 to 1999. Now it is being reported she will go back to reality television. See Also: Lifetime Blames R Kelly For Gun Threats That Stopped Premiere Of Docuseries About Women Accusing The Singer Entertainment Tonight reports Andrea Kelly will join the upcoming season of “Growing Up Hip Hop: Atlanta” on We TV. In the new trailer, she says, “I don’t know what it’s like to be R. Kelly’s child. I only know what it’s like to be his ex-wife.” T-Boz, Waka Flocka and Tammy Rivera will also be on this season. See below: Andrea Kelly also appeared on “Hollywood Exes” back in 2012, but she will surely get some criticism for joining another reality show. Shortly after “Surviving R. Kelly” aired, a video resurfaced of Andrea on Facebook Live singing R. Kelly’s 2004 song “Happy People.” She referred to him as her “baby daddy” and said “happy people, not you old, irritating ass people.” Meanwhile on Facebook a couple months ago, Andrea Kelly was like…….. pic.twitter.com/tkzMO2zLSH — Dr. Esco (@Esco079) January 5, 2019 While the caption on the video claims it is from three months ago, other reports says the video is from 2017. Andrea responded via her reps to TMZ , saying, “This (video) in no way should be perceived as an extension of support for R. Kelly, but should be viewed as a statement of her strength and not having been defeated.” In “Surviving R. Kelly,” Andrea detailed extreme abuse. The 44-year-old said she nearly miscarried her son Robert Jr., explaining, “I was under so much stress that when I went to the OBGYN, they couldn’t find his heartbeat. And I remember getting to the emergency room and I remember coming through the door and…people were grabbing me and putting stuff in my arm. I went through the labor and I just remember falling so in love with little Rob because he came here so strong. I was in that much stress.” Executive produced by dream hampton , the docu-series detailed accounts from people in Kelly’s circle, including the singer’s brother, Bruce, who outwardly said Kelly had a “preference” for young women and singer Sparkle (the aunt of the 14-year-old in the sex tape) who testified against him in court.

Source: Robin L Marshall / Getty Pastor John Gray and his wife Aventer made headlines when it was revealed their holy matrimony was tainted with infidelity. While Pastor Gray assured fans it was only an “emotional” affair, recently discovered audio recordings paint a different picture. A woman, who remains anonymous, detailed a relationship with John Gray during an interview with Larry Reid , in that was surely not just emotional. According to the woman, John Gray booked her room in the same hotel as his wife one time, but Aventer had found out. He left the woman a voicemail warning her Aventer had read their text messages. The nameless woman also claimed John Gray would speak in tongues after ejaculating over facetime. She also revealed they indeed had sex. John Gray and the woman were reportedly friends for years, but their friendship changed after the woman went through a domestic violence incident that left her vulnerable. “It started with him—he likes to say—breathing life into me. So he was just there as far as talking to me, pretty much pastoring me, ministering to me. And I called on him to do a favor to a person that I knew that was struggling with some addiction issues. And so I called upon him to help with that. It was an employee of mine. That employee actually wound up speaking with him and it got him on the straight and narrow. So I sent him a text message telling him thank you. And he said, ‘Whatever you need.’ And I was like ‘Well thank you.’ And he said, ‘I’m talking about you.’ John Gray allegedly offered her financial help when she fell on hard times. “He would say, ‘The Lord told me that you need some money so go ahead and check your cash app. I already put money in your account. Then he’ll be like, ‘What color panties you got on? Let me see your nipples.’ … He likes to jack off on the screen and he comes and when he comes, he speaks in tongues. No joke. When we slept together, he jumped up!” He also allegedly confided in her about he and Aventer’s marriage and claimed she didn’t sexually satisfy him. “I ran into an issue financially and he was just like absolutely. and it was a big deal. It was a really big thing. From that moment on, it started from there. It snowballed into ‘I just love you so much. I always loved you. I always thought about you. I always cared about you.’ Then he was going through the stuff with his wife and he was saying how he didn’t like her, didn’t love her, that he was never attracted to her, that he only married her because she looked good on paper. His exact words were, ‘She don’t suck. She don’t f*ck. She ain’t never washed a pair of my drawers.” The woman also had voicemails of what seemed to be John Gray’s voice. “When you get this message, delete it. My wife saw our text messages from Friday. She knows you were in the same hotel as me and she does not know that I went to your room. She doesn’t remember me leaving. She’s got your number,” he said. This woman’s narrative was completely different from John Gray, who simply said he was inappropriate because he carried on an “emotional” affair. Clearly there’s more to the story.

Still doesn’t excuse Kirk but we can’t wait to hear all the details about that.
