Pjevačica je uznijela kako je danima bila zatočena kao i da ju je nepoznata osoba drogirala i silovala.

Sada se, kaže, oporavila, pa je odlučila javno iznijeti sve traume kroz koje je prošla.

Na Instagram profilu objavila je tekst o tome šta joj se dogodilo te je od fanova dobila brojne poruke podrške.

Duffy je 2011. najavila da će uzeti pauzu od javnih nastupa. Iste godine objavila je posljednji i svoj drugi album.

Izuzetak je nastup, održan 2013, zajedno sa brojnim drugim pjevačima na koncertu u New Yorku u čast Edith Piaf, a 2015. glumila je američku pjevačicu Timi Yuru u filmu "Legend" u kojem je glumila Tom Hardy. Za taj film snimila je i soundtrack.

- Nema jednostavnog načina da vam ovo kažem. Mnogi među vama pitaju se šta se sa mnom dogodilo, gdje sam i zašto nestala? Puno sam puta razmišljala o tome kako da ovo napišem i kako bih se nakon toga osjećala. Nisam u potpunosti sigurna zbog čega mi se čini da je sada pravo vrijeme za to i da će me razgovor o tome osloboditi. Sigurno se pitate, zašto nisam odlučila iskoristiti svoj glas da bih izrazila bol. Nisam željela pokazati svijetu tugu, ne znajući kako ću pjevati slomljenog srca. No, ono je postepeno do sada zaraslo – napisala je Duffy.

You can only imagine the amount of times I thought about writing this. The way I would write it, how I would feel thereafter. Well, not entirely sure why now is the right time, and what it is that feels exciting and liberating for me to talk. I cannot explain it. Many of you wonder what happened to me, where did I disappear to and why. A journalist contacted me, he found a way to reach me and I told him everything this past summer. He was kind and it felt so amazing to finally speak. The truth is, and please trust me I am ok and safe now, I was raped and drugged and held captive over some days. Of course I survived. The recovery took time. There’s no light way to say it. But I can tell you in the last decade, the thousands and thousands of days I committed to wanting to feel the sunshine in my heart again, the sun does now shine. You wonder why I did not choose to use my voice to express my pain? I did not want to show the world the sadness in my eyes. I asked myself, how can I sing from the heart if it is broken? And slowly it unbroke. In the following weeks I will be posting a spoken interview. If you have any questions I would like to answer them, in the spoken interview, if I can. I have a sacred love and sincere appreciation for your kindness over the years. You have been friends. I want to thank you for that x Duffy Please respect this is a gentle move for me to make, for myself, and I do not want any intrusion to my family. Please support me to make this a positive experience.

Šta se tačno dogodilo, nije željela precizirati, ali zato je napisala:

- Istina je..., i molim vas, vjerujte da sam sada dobro i na sigurnom. Više su me dana silovali, drogirali i držali u zatočeništvu, no preživjela sam i trebalo mi je puno vremena za oporavak - dodala je Duffy.
