In an emotional interview with Drea O for Revolt TV, which has garnered millions of views since its original upload, has resurfaced on social media amidst growing concerns over a rising HIV outbreak in Chicago.
Davis opened up about moving to Atlanta, falling in love, and the shocking revelation that her boyfriend knowingly passed the virus to her.
“He told me he didn’t know he had HIV,” Davis explained. “But then I found out he knew. He was born with it.”
Her candid recounting revealed not only the betrayal she experienced but also the emotional toll of grappling with the deception.
“How do you wake up next to somebody every single day, knowing you have HIV, and this person has no idea?” she said through tears.
Davis described the profound betrayal and heartbreak of discovering that her partner had hidden his diagnosis throughout their relationship:
“From the day he told me to roll my window down in that car, from the day he moved into my house… He knew, and I didn’t.”
The interview, initially aired on Revolt TV, has struck a chord with viewers, shining a light on the harsh realities of living with HIV and the importance of awareness, communication, and prevention.
In re-sharing the interview, Drea O stressed the significance of Davis’s story, particularly given the increase in HIV cases in Chicago.
