In a recent turn of events, Kenyan singer Avril has found herself at the center of controversy as she faced accusations of leveraging personal drama with ex-partner J Blessing for promotional purposes surrounding her latest song release.
The saga began on Tuesday evening when Avril posted distressing photos of a bruised face, later deleted, sparking concerns among Kenyans who speculated about potential physical abuse. Concurrently, J Blessing, her ex-partner, disabled comments on his Instagram posts, adding to the mystery surrounding the situation.
Wednesday morning saw Avril addressing the public response to her revelations, highlighting the mockery she faced after exposing her miseries. Surprisingly, she chose to forgive J Blessing and urged Kenyans to do the same. However, as the day unfolded, the drama took a new twist.
In a shocking revelation on Wednesday afternoon, J Blessing confirmed that he had indeed been involved in altercations with Avril, admitting to taking her to the hospital for injuries on one occasion. Despite apologizing for any harm caused to Avril or others, he also announced the separation between the two.
Curiously, amidst the unfolding drama, Avril reposted a link to her new song, the video of which had been produced by none other than J Blessing himself. This strategic move raised eyebrows, leading some to question the authenticity of the entire situation.
As the day reached its conclusion, Avril took a drastic step by deactivating her Instagram account. This unexpected move only fueled speculation about the true nature of the events, with some suggesting that the entire episode might have been orchestrated to generate publicity for her new song.
The accusations of using personal turmoil for clout are not new in the entertainment industry, and Kenyan fans are now left questioning the authenticity of Avril’s recent revelations. Whether this controversy will boost or hinder the success of her latest release remains to be seen, but one thing is certain – the drama surrounding Avril and J Blessing has taken the Kenyan entertainment scene by storm.
