All about Avril’s startling statements after being abused by partner, J Blessing


Kenyan singer Judith Nyambura Mwangi aka Avril has pleaded with her fans to forgive her baby daddy J Blessing after he allegedly assaulted her.

In a candid revelation on her Instagram stories, Avril, famed for her song “Chokoza” acknowledged there had been struggles in her seven-year relationship with J Blessing.

She also noted that her heart was so heavy so much that she had to tell the world her business as she is normally a private person who would not talk about anything she is going through even if she was being tortured.

“I forgive you J, please find it in your hearts to forgive him too. Everyone is deserving of forgiveness in this life,” read part of her statement.

Additionally, Avril noted that she and her baby daddy recognised the need for change and are committed to seeking help and learning healthier ways to communicate and resolve issues.

“Our mutual goal is to create a more positive and supportive environment for each other, fostering understanding and growth.”

She also dismissed claims that she was clout chasing when she showed her bruised face on social media.
“No, it’s not me looking for sympathy, it is just me being human and deeply understanding that everyone is deserving of humanity, especially in these times where we should all be kind to one another regardless of whether you receive kindness or not, you should strive to give it, and give it abundantly,” she wrote.

On November 14th, 2023, Avril shared and quickly deleted photos showing her bruised face on her Instagram stories which she captioned, ‘J Blessing unikome…’ followed by explicit language.
The photos were quickly circulated on social media birthing an array of opinions and concerns from netizens.

When Nairobi News contacted J Blessing for a statement, he laughed it off hinting that if he chose to address the issue he would do so through his social media platforms.

Later, after her apology message went viral and received online backlash, Avril quickly cautioned her fans against taking the wrong message out of her statement saying that she does not condone nor justify a single thing.

She wrote, “Speaking out is the only way out and no one should make you feel ashamed for it. For men or for women. Matters are with the relevant authorities and I am doing okay. Just don’t want my heart laden with an unforgiving weight on it.”
