She thanked her sponsors and all her fans for supporting her.

“I truly loved and enjoyed travelling all over the country to showcase my talent. Most importantly to you my supporters and fans, thank you so so much for the love you have shown me without you there wouldn’t have been Judy Jay,” wrote Judy.
The musician said she has been thinking about taking this decision for a while.
“As sad as I am while I pen this down, it is truly necessary for me to have taken this decision both for my well-being as well as my own personal reasons. I have thought about it for the longest time now and I keep on reaching the same conclusion. This is goodbye from me,” she wrote.
Even though her fans on Facebook and Twitter were disappointed, they showed her love.
Twitter user Mfundo Ofentse wrote: “As heartbreaking as this is, your peace and well-being come first so please do not think you’ve disappointed us. If anything this is the bravest thing ever so you take care of yourself and rest assured we’re behind you whatever decision you make. You’re incredible, don’t forget that.”
Another user, Malome, said Judy must look after herself.
“You taking time away for your own well-being will never be a disappointment to us. This absolutely sucks, but look after you, and I really hope that one day, when you’re in a good place, you’ll be well enough to come back and continue where you left off,” he wrote.
