R. Kelly's Daughter Speaks Out in Upcoming Documentary: 'I Will Not Take My Son to a Prison to Meet His Grandfather'

In the trailer for the upcoming documentary 'R Kelly’s Karma: A Daughter’s Journey,' Joanne Kelly discusses her broken relationship with her father

“Nobody wants to be the child of the father that is out here hurting women and children,” says Joanne, 26, in the trailer, released on Sunday, Sept 29. “I really feel like that one millisecond completely just changed my whole life,” she says, referring to Kelly’s conviction, adding of her future child, “If my son asks questions, I’m going to be as truthful as possible. After Kelly's arrest in 2019, prosecutors said in an indictment issued that he and his team — made up of his managers, bodyguards and assistants — "traveled throughout the United States and abroad to perform at concert venues ... and to recruit women and girls to engage in illegal sexual activity with Kelly" as far back as 1999.
