Meagan Good reveals it was DeVon Franklin who “left” her, resulting in their 2022 divorce.
The actress appears on an upcoming episode of Zeus’ The Jason Lee Show, and in the clip below, indicates that her ex-husband initiated the split. Good, 43, and Franklin, 47, were married from 2012 to 2022.
“What I can say is, it’s not that anybody did anything wrong. I can’t say that he fucked that up and I can’t say that I fucked that up,” Good explained.
“We grew from it,” she continued. “I don’t think that any time was wasted. I think that everything in life, every single season, you do learn so much, and you do grow so much, and you give so much, and you do get so much.”
The former Harlem star shared that she was “thankful” for her time with Franklin, which she said changed her “perspective” on moving forward. “It’s my conscious mind in every single season to choose what best serves my quality of life and best serves the other person’s quality of life,” she said.
The exes connected on the set of 2011 rom-com Jumping the Broom and tied the knot after dating for less than a year. Good and Franklin also released a self-help book called The Wait, which encouraged readers to practice celibacy until marriage like they did.
“My divorce shook me to my core,” Good reflected on Club Shay Shay last year, around the 3-minute mark of the video below. “Lord, you asked me to be celibate, and I was; you told me to marry, and I married that person. I tried to do everything to the best of my ability, and no, I didn’t do everything perfect, but I don’t know if I could do anything differently if I’m being honest.”
She added, “My greatest fear was that my husband would leave me after 10 years of marriage, similar to my dad leaving my mom, and that’s exactly what happened.”
The actress tied the knot with Jonathan Majors last month in a private ceremony. Last December, Franklin announced his engagement to fitness trainer Maria Castillo, 28.
