The problem seems to be not getting over for R&B singer R Kelly.

According to The Independent, a mother of three has accused R Kelly of paying her for years to ensure an alleged underage sexual relationship between them was kept secret.

Woman named Jerhonda Pace, 24, shared that she met the R&B superstar at his 2008 child pornography trial when she was just 15 years old and a superfan.

The 50-year-old musician was later acquitted of all 14 charges of making child pornography after a videotape emerged allegedly showing him having sex with a 14-year-old girl.

Ms Pace, who was then known as Jerhonda Johnson, told a website that the pair embarked on a sexual relationship when she was only 16 years old.

She also alleged that the ?I Believe? hit-maker was controlling and abusive to her and he would film their sexual encounters without her granting permission.

Ms Pace said she decided to end the relationship after they had an argument and Kelly caught her texting a friend.

?I was slapped and I was choked and I was spit on,? she noted.

The singer has denied the allegations launched against him.

A representative for the singer said, ?The allegations against Mr Kelly are false, and are being made by individuals known to be dishonest. It is clear these continuing stories are the result of the effort of those with personal agendas who are working in concert to interfere with and damage his career.?

Adding, ?Mr Kelly again denies any and all wrong doing and is taking appropriate legal action to protect himself from ongoing defamation.?

This follows a recent spate of allegations Kelly was brainwashing women in a cult-like setup.

Earlier this month, police said there have been no ?criminal allegations? and there will be no police investigation.

District Attorney Paul Howard said in an emailed statement that the Fulton County District Attorney's office was also ?not investigating? Kelly.

Kelly was twice arrested a decade ago over claims he was involved in sexual activity with an underage girl, when no charges were brought.
