Singer Duffy has opened up about being raped, drugged and held captive for weeks in the past,
saying she is sharing her harrowing “dark” story to help “others who have suffered the same”. The Welsh pop star shared her ordeal via a post on her verified Instagram page, said a report. The singer said she was drugged at a restaurant on her birthday before being held captive in her own home and taken to a foreign country. The 35-year-old Welsh singer, whose full name is Aimee Duffy, first revealed her ordeal in February and revealed more details of being kidnapped on her web page. Duffy said she was sharing her ordeal because “we are living in a hurting world”. Duffy added that she was at “high risk of suicide” following the ordeal and has spent “almost 10 years completely alone”. Now, she feels she can “leave this decade behind” and thanked her psychologist for helping her through the trauma. She said she hopes to release “a body of work some day”, but added: “I very much doubt I will ever be the person people once knew.” (IANS)
