He recently had his say during an episode of Bunnie Xo’s Dumb Blonde podcast, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, his late father once had to stand trial at age 9 for the murder of his own father, and he would always get so mad at his dad growing up because he’d freak out whenever he heard a loud noise.
Kelly added that his dad and grandma were eventually discharged and acquitted once the matter got to court.
His words, “The story that was always told to me was that their dad dropped the gun, and his head essentially blew off.
All happened in the room with my dad at 9 years old. So him and my grandmother were tried for the m*rder. They were both acquitted.
I would be like, ‘Youβre supposed to be a man, dude. Why are you acting like this?’ and it just made me hate him. And then, you sit there, and you think about a kid who was on trial at 9 years old for the murder of his father… I had a very interesting talk with him on his deathbed about that moment.
In my situation with my father, he was so tormented from some of the most insane s*** that I can imagine a kid can go through that he had to figure it out, but with almost every possible bad circumstance going against him, too.
It’s almost like the expectations are too high. Because we think that they know everything because we grew up looking up at them. But we’re all just lost and trying to figure it out.”
WOW.
