Wynonna Judds’s daughter accuses Mom of covering the sexual abuse of the godparents

The daughter of the legend of country music Wynonna Judd says she was a victim of sexual abuse at the hands of her former stepfather, and accused her famous mother not to protect her.

Grace Kelley, 29, made worrying statements while talking about The Daily Progress, a media with headquarters in Virginia, in July. In the interview, he said she was bothered by Dr. Roach, with whom Judd was married from 2003 to 2007, when she was 10 years old.

“When they found out about advising what I had done to me, they say: ‘Wait a minute. We are going to inform the police,'” said Kelley, according to People. “When she was arrested and came out in the news, it was when she divorced him.”

She continued observing: “So my mother is rich? Yes, it’s so rich that she could sweep my carpet and abuse me and then cover everything. I don’t want to speak badly about my mother, but we will only say she is a good performer. She was never a mother.”

A Judd representative did not immediately respond to a request for comments from News.

Judd requested Roach’s divorce, his second husband and former bodyguard, in 2007, shortly after being arrested in Abilene, Texas, for three positions of aggravated sexual assault in a minor under 13 years. Roach’s victim was never publicly identified.

According to Reuters, Judd issued a statement on his website at the time he said he was “obviously devastated” by the levels level against Roach, adding: “We will move forward with our faith, family and our friends to find the resolution of this difficult situation.”

Speaking to Ladies Home Journal later that year, the five -time Grammy winner said “I knew what I was getting in” when he married Roach and “tried to change it.”

Kelley, whose father is Judd’s first husband, Arch Kelley III, has faced a series of personal challenges in recent years. Recently, it served six weeks in jail after being accused of a greatft and driving without a license in October last year. These days, she is the mother of a 3 -year -old daughter, Kaliyah, and has focused on staying sober after moving to Charlottesville, Virginia.

Looking towards the future, Kelley told Progress Daily that he is working in a memory entitled “Pronoia” in which he will share the “difficult story” of his childhood in Nashville.

“I think it’s my time now,” he explained. “I never had a voice, and I had doubts about talking about all these things, but it doesn’t matter what is said about me, the Bible says that the truth will make you free.”
