Congratulations Andrea Lee Kelly, you are no longer married to the R&B crooner. But now he is free and single (a sort of scary prospect, if you ask me). Anyway,People Magazine reports that the two finalized the divorce, filed in 2006, recently. I guess they held out to see how that child pornography case turned out and since the singer was acquitted they can all move on.
We haven’t heard much from Andrea, who kept a low profile for years and years waiting for this trial. She did file that emergency protective order claiming that there was physical abuse a few years back. Mysteriously, as is all the things that surround R. Kelly, she rescinded the order. I’ll just say that one doesn’t ordinarily imagine physical abuse. And she gave a rare interview to Essence two years ago letting us know that although she had been through hell she was not the kind of person that was easily broken.
Andrea, a dancer and choreographer, has spent most of her adult life with R. Kelly (since they married when she was 20). And they will have joint custody of their three children. But here’s to hoping that this sister can have a less drama-filled life (free from alleged abuse) from now on.
