Hey guys for Complex News, I'm Natasha Martinez.
R. Kelly is a textbook romantic crooner but he's also a textbook homewrecker according
to one Mississippi man who is suing the Bump n' Grind singer for breaking up his marriage.
Sheriff deputy Kenneth Bryant knows a lot is wrong with a little bump n grind because
he's claiming the singer had a years-long, ongoing affair with his wife, Asia Childress.
The reports say that Childress made Bryant aware that she had been involved with Kellz
before their marriage but that it was over.
However Bryant is claiming that just months after getting married in 2012 the affair continued.
The first question that comes to mind when hearing this story is, why is this not on
daytime television with an audience, and how is this an actual lawsuit?
Well Mississippi is one of only a few states where spouses can sue someone for breaking
up their marriage, so this could legit go to court.
According to Bryant, Childress was not so subtle about her affair.
The lawsuit stated,
"Each time R. Kelly would have a concert in a nearby state, Childress would disappear
to unite with her lover.
R. Kelly cuckolded Bryant, with blatant disregard for Bryant's and Childress' vows."
She even suggested that she and Bryant move to Atlanta for the ulterior motive of tending
to her adulterous relationship with R. Kelly.
And if this whole story wasn't awkward enough the suit also says that Kelly gave Childress
chlamydia…
R. Kelly has yet to respond to all of this but Byrant is aiming for both compensatory
damages and punitive damages.
Not sure how you can punish a man for breaking up a marriage but the lawsuit states their
desire to "deter him and other similarly situated defendants from engaging in such
adulterous conduct in the future.
In theory you would think having an option to sue the one who's responsible for breaking
up a relationship would be a good thing but in Bryant's case, his wife wasn't cheating
with some joe schmoe.
Not to make light of cheating but unless Bryant can swoon her with a performance of 'I believe
I can fly', I don't think this lawsuit can do much to help his marriage.
