Actress Meagan Good and her husband, religious leader and author DeVon Franklin, are splitting.
Divorce papers were filed Monday by Franklin at the Stanley Mosk Courthouse in LA; the couple were married in 2012 and have no children together.
Good, 40 and Franklin, 43, released a statement to People saying, “After much prayer and consideration, we have decided to go into our futures separately but forever connected. 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.”
The couple met on the set of the film “Jumping The Broom” in 2011. They were engaged in May 2012 and got married in June 2012.
“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,” said the statement.
The couple also worked on a book together titled “The Wait” in 2015. In the book, Franklin reveals that prior to their marriage he had been celibate for 10 years and Good had been celibate for one.
The “Harlem” actress told a publication back in 2016, “I no longer wanted to be a girlfriend, I wanted a husband.”
“Me being married to a man of ministry, people saw me as a first lady of the church, and said I should now conduct myself in that manner,” she said. “[But] I have been acting since I was 4, so wearing sexy dresses on the red carpet is never going to change.”
