R. Kelly’s fianceé Joycelyn Savage claims she’s pregnant, one of several bombshell revelations in her shocking new book “Love and Joy of Robert.”
The 26-year-old mother-to-be writes in her tiny tell-all — only 11 pages and out Friday on Amazon — that she found out she was expecting months after disgraced R&B singer-songwriter Robert Sylvester Kelly sent an engagement ring to her home the day after he was sentenced to 30 years in prison for racketing and sex trafficking.
“Months later, I began expecting severe morning sickness and was unsure what was wrong with my body. I thought I had contracted COVID-19, but the most amazing news of all was that I was expecting,” Savage writes in the book.
“It was a happy day but an incomplete time in my life. Today I am grateful to God for giving me the most precious gift. Robert is extremely excited about the news that I am having a baby and feels sad that Robert will not be able to be here with us.”
In an email to The Post, Savage said a photograph of the ultrasound was the only picture Kelly would allow in the exposé.
“I couldn’t convince Robert to allow photos in this book, I told him it felt empty without photos of us but I couldn’t convince him,” Savage wrote in the email. “We did include a picture of my ultrasound which he wanted everyone to know, I am expecting.”
The Post has contacted reps for Kelly for comment. It remains unclear how far along Savage is in the pregnancy.
She also told The Post that there will be a second volume of her memoir released next year.
The short, yet jaw-dropping read is Savage’s version of the events leading to her living with the troubled R&B singer. She wrote that life prior to meeting Kelly at 19 years old was emotionally and mentally draining, and alleged that “family members” touched her.
“Family members touching you despite knowing you were aware of the situation felt as if it was okay for them to do so,” Savage wrote. “It felt normal to me that I was unable to voice my feelings to my parents when all they did was ignore my pain.
