On cross-examination Tuesday, she testified about friendly letters she wrote to Kelly in which she recalled happy memories with him. In one letter after they separated, she wrote that she could no longer be so closely associated with him in the wake of the January 2019 "Surviving R. Kelly" TV series, which examined his alleged abuse of women and girls.
“I will have to support you privately, not publicly,” the letter said. “And I will always love and support you, Bear. … Just know I’m always here, I have no bad feelings, Bear.”
The trial will continue Thursday but will take Friday off, according to U.S. District Judge Ann Donnelly.
In her testimony Tuesday, the witness "Jane" identified herself as one of two women living with Kelly at his Chicago Trump Tower condo until the end of 2019. She said she made her first public appearance concerning Kelly when she participated in an interview CBS anchor Gayle King conducted with Kelly. At the time, King also interviewed two women identified as Kelly's live-in girlfriends.
