In February, the Welsh singer, widely known for her 2008 hit song “Mercy,” told fans she had chosen to be out of the spotlight for a decade to recover from the traumatic incident. InGet push notifications with news, features and more.“It was my birthday, I was drugged at a restaurant, I was drugged then for four weeks and traveled to a foreign country,” Duffy, 35, wrote. “I can’t remember getting on the plane and came round in the back of a traveling vehicle.
The singer then opened up about the impact the traumatic incident had on her life in the years that followed, recalling how much she wished she could “change my name off public record and disappear to another country.” However, throughout her recovery, she realized that was not meant to be how her story ended.
“Rape is like living murder, you are alive, but dead,” she added. “All I can say is it took an extremely long time, sometimes feeling never ending, to reclaim the shattered pieces of me.” “I am sharing this because we are living in a hurting world and I am no longer ashamed that something deeply hurt me, anymore,” Duffy said. “I believe that if you speak from the heart within you, the heart within others will answer. As dark as my story is, I do speak from my heart, for my life, and for the life of others, whom have suffered the same.”
“Knowing the mind’s science enables you to manage it. And isolation is a small price to pay for saving lives, therefore we must be strong in the face of it. This demands us all, as one, to act for each other; never has mindfulness been so vital as it is now,” she added. “If you are reading this and are sad my encouragement to you is that … to know pain, you must first know how to love. Only the absence of love causes pain. So, go find it. Seek love in everything, even in a teacup.
