One of the "alleged survivors" of singer R. Kelly has claimed that he shared all the details with her on how he got his teen bride, the late R&B singer Aaliyah, pregnant. Lisa Van Allen, one of the women featured in the new documentary 'Surviving R. Kelly', has reportedly claimed that Kelly told her that he was sleeping with the late singer's mother as well. Kelly, whose real name is Robert Sylvester Kelly, tied the knot with Aaliyah in 1994 when she was just 15 years old and he was 27.

The marriage certificate, however, stated that Aaliyah was 18 at the time and Kelly's tour manager Demetrius Smith even admitted that he helped forge the documents, stated a Mirror Online report. In an interview now with Vlad TV, Lisa claimed that Kelly revealed to her the reasons behind why he married Aaliyah.
