DeVon Franklin Reflects On ‘Painful’ Reality Of Life After Divorce From Meagan Good: When we said ‘I do’ there was never a moment when we were thinking ‘I don’t’.
DeVon Franklin is opening up about life after divorce.
In the latest episode of Red Table Talk, the 44-year-old producer and author explains the “painful” nature of being on the
“other side of a marriage that did not work.”
DeVon Franklin explained,
“It changes everything… I just bought a piece of property, first piece of property. In the contract: ‘DeVon Franklin, an unmarried man.’ I might as well broken down. Because I never saw this moment.”
He continued,
“When we said I do, there was never a moment when we were thinking ‘I don’t. So to live in the ‘I don’t,’ you don’t know what it’s like until you do.”
The new episode of Red Table Talk comes nearly a year after after Franklin and Good, 41, filed for divorce after 9 years of marriage.
As previously reported, after almost a decade of marriage Meagan and DeVon shocked everyone after announcing their split back in December of 2021. Collectively, they shared a joint message via their social media explaining that “no one is at fault,” and they are just moving forward towards different paths but will “forever be connected”.
Meagan Good and DeVon Franklin said:
“After much prayer and consideration, we have decided to go into our futures separately but forever connected.”
Good and Franklin continued:
“We celebrate almost a decade of marriage together and a love that is eternal. There’s no one at fault, we believe this is the next best chapter in the evolution of our love.”
They added:
“We are incredibly grateful for the life-changing years we’ve spent together as husband and wife. We are also extremely thankful to God for the testimony being created inside us both and for blessing our lives with each other.”
While together, Meagan Good and DeVon Franklin wrote the bestselling book The Wait: A Powerful Practice for Finding the Love of Your Life and the Life You Love, documenting their romantic journey.
After announcing their divorce, an insider told People Magazine that Good and Franklin’s breakup was “a long time coming.”
“Their work schedules often kept them apart, and they just haven’t been spending a lot of time together this past year. When they did have time in their schedules, it’d often just be hours that they would be able to spend quality time together.”
The new episode of Red Table Talk premieres Monday (Dec. 5) and features dating coach Matthew Hussey, author Stephan Labossiere, reality tv star and Will Smith’s ex wife, Sheree Zampino, and podcast host Lewis Howes.
