Cam Newton Says ‘The Bible Ain’t Mention No Honeymoon’
*Cam Newton recently sat down with Bishop T.D. Jakes for an episode of the “NXT Chapter” podcast, and let’s just say—he had *thoughts*. Released around January 5 (2026), the interview touched on marriage, faith, fatherhood, and relationships.
And in true Cam fashion, the former NFL quarterback didn’t hold back.
“Yo, the Bible ain’t never mentioned no honeymoon. The Bible ain’t never mentioned the ring. The Bible ain’t never mentioned spending millions and thousands of dollars on a marriage celebration.”
Cam Newton Thinks Modern Weddings Are ‘Worldly’
According to Newton, weddings today are more about Instagram aesthetics and “Bridezilla” budgets than biblical commitment.
“The Bible didn’t say a lot of these things, but if we’re going off of the Bible’s accord, there’s a lot of worldly things that have crept into it.”

He also said he was inspired by Pentecostal couples he saw growing up, who centered their marriages on faith instead of flash.
“I want to know without a shadow of a doubt, for better or for worse.”

Not Anti-Marriage, Just Anti-Fake Conviction
To be fair, Newton clarified that he’s not against marriage itself—just the pressure to jump in for the wrong reasons.
He questioned whether people really understand the weight of “for better or for worse,” especially in a world where fame, ego, and trust issues get in the way.
Basically, if you’re not ready for the storm, maybe don’t book the yacht.
Internet to Cam: ‘Sir, You Have Nine Kids’
While Newton was busy quoting scripture, the internet was busy quoting… receipts. Critics were quick to point out he has *nine children* with multiple women and has never been married.
That includes two kids with current girlfriend, comedian Jasmin Brown. Social media wasted no time calling it out.
“So rings are ‘worldly,’ but baby showers aren’t?” one user quipped.
Some Say He Has a Point—Even If He’s Not Living It
Not everyone came for his neck, though. A few defenders said Newton wasn’t wrong about weddings being over-commercialized.
Biblical marriages in ancient times were often simple agreements—no $10K floral arches, no $5K cake. Just a covenant… and maybe a goat.
This Isn’t Newton’s First Relationship Rant
If you’ve watched Cam Newton’s “Funky Friday” series, you know this man stays on brand. He’s previously grilled women on loyalty, submission, and “earning” titles.
In short, he’s not new to stirring the gender wars pot—just very, very comfortable in the kitchen.
T.D. Jakes Mostly Let Cam Cook
Throughout the episode, Bishop T.D. Jakes nodded along, offering light commentary but mostly letting Newton drive the sermon.
Clips from the convo quickly spread on social media, especially via accounts like @ArtOfDialogue_ and various blog outlets.
Why Cam Newton’s Comments Still Hit a Nerve
Cam Newton’s marriage comments touched a bigger nerve about tradition, religion, and modern relationships.
Whether you think he’s preaching or projecting, the conversation reveals how faith and culture continue to clash—especially when the messenger has a complicated résumé.
