Personal Life
Jonjelyn met the love of her life, Tim Savage, in the 1990s; after dating for some time, the two lovebirds decided to exchange their wedding vows in the presence of their family and friends.

Jonjelyn and her husband are parents to three beautiful daughters, Joycelyn, Jori, and Jailyn. They love their daughters and will do anything for them to ensure they lead comfortable lives.
Losing Her Daughter to R Kelly
Jonjelyn was aware of R Kelly’s behavior and scandalous past and did not want her daughter to get involved with him, but things did not work as she expected as her daughter fell for the singer. Jonjelyn had moved with her family from Memphis, Tennessee, to Atlanta, Georgia, to help her daughter Joycelyn, an aspiring singer, establish herself in the music industry.
While in Atlanta, Georgia, R Kelly and his team approached Joycelyn to help in her music endeavors. After working with Kelly for a while, he allegedly presented a record deal to Joycelyn, but it was never signed. Jonjelyn and her husband saw it fit to enroll their daughter in a college to study liberal arts. Initially, R Kelly and Joycelyn’s meetings were supervised, but after she left college, they kept in touch. R Kelly even rented a room close to where Jonjelyn’s daughter studied.
Upon her close interactions with Kelly, Joycelyn started having feelings for him and later dropped out of school. Her parents tried to talk to her to reconsider her “love” for Kelly, but their pleas were ignored.
