Ms Kelly also addresses the book he wrote, The Soulcoaster, where he detailed the incidents that led to their eventual divorce.
"You should have never put me in your book. And if you're gonna put me in your book, then you're gonna tell the truth in the book," she said.
"You don't get to tell people that we got divorced because I had a problem with being a stay-at-home mom.
"We got divorced because I was no longer going to sit and be violated. What he did to me was criminal."
Ms Kelly isn't the only woman to speak up against the RnB singer; he has settled many cases out of court, including one where a 15-year-old girl claimed he had sex with her. He was also acquitted of an alleged crime in which he was claimed to have urinated on a teenage girl.
The singer also allegedly married fellow RnB singer Aaliyah when she was just 15 years-old and R Kelly was 27.
