DeVon Franklin Breaks Silence on Divorce from Meagan Good
*DeVon Franklin recently spoke out about the moment he first seriously considered divorce from Meagan Good. In a new Ted Talk-like video, he revealed how their nearly 10-year marriage shifted. The clip also went viral on social platforms like X, stirring strong reactions.
Franklin, a minister and Hollywood producer, said the idea of divorce started during a painful realization. He didn’t share a specific incident, but noted the relationship no longer aligned with his expectations. Despite trying therapy and pre-marital counseling, he felt the marriage had reached its limit.
Divorce Shook His Faith and Identity
Their split was finalized in June 2022 after Franklin filed for divorce in 2021. He previously described the process as shaking his “belief system,” especially as a man of faith. He opened up on Nick Cannon’s “Counsel Culture” podcast, stressing emotional honesty over image.
“It wasn’t about who was right or wrong,” Franklin has said in interviews. He emphasized that love was still present, but growth required separation. His message encourages others to face grief and healing with vulnerability.

The Franklin-Good marriage was once viewed as a model for faith-based dating. They co-wrote “The Wait,” a book on celibacy and intentional love, in 2015. Their 2022 divorce shocked fans who saw them as a spiritually aligned couple.
Both have taken the high road, offering kind words and mutual respect in public. They’ve said their split was not rooted in conflict, but in evolution. Now, each is remarried and focused on personal growth.
