She continued: “He was my everything. For a long time, I didn’t even want to believe that it happened. I didn’t know that even if he was a bad person that he would do something to me.”
Jennifer Bonjean, a lawyer acting for Kelly, said he “vehemently denies” the allegations.
“His ex-wife made the same allegation years ago, and it was investigated by the Illinois Department of Children & Family Services and was unfounded,” she said in a statement to People magazine.
“And the ‘filmmakers’, whoever they are, did not reach out to Mr Kelly or his team to even allow him to deny these hurtful claims.”
Ms Bonjean has separately been approached for comment by The Telegraph.
Kelly, 57, was convicted of racketeering and sex trafficking charges and sentenced to 30 years in prison in New York in 2021.
The following year, he was convicted in Chicago of child pornography and enticement of minors for sex, and was sentenced to 20 years.
The judge ruled that Kelly’s two sentences would be served concurrently, meaning he will be eligible for parole by around the age of 80.
In 1994, Kelly married his first wife, Aaliyah, a 15-year-old singer. The New York court heard that the marriage certificate had been faked to record her age as 18.
