African Violets

I have 3 African violets that I inherited from my Mom. I watched her care for them so when they became mine I did exactly how she cared for them. It’s been 16 months without an issue but now they look like this. I have thought reporting but not sure how since I know you can touch the leaves. Please help. It’s very important to me that they stay alive.

It is OK to touch the leaves, but you should never let water splash on the leaves. Repotting may help, and make sure they are not overwatered.
