I’m going through a divorce that has shaken me to my core. I prayed, “Lord, you asked me to be a celebrant. I followed your guidance and married that person. I did my best, even if I wasn’t perfect, and I honestly don’t know if I could have done anything differently.”
It’s interesting how Tyler Perry’s divorce coincided with high-profile divorces among Black Star actors, like Megan Good, Cory Hardrict, and Richard Lawson. Megan has been especially prominent in the news, with discussions about her ex-husband, whom some describe as a toxic religious figure. She also criticized Cat Williams for calling her current boyfriend, Jonathan Majors, unattractive. If Jonathan is considered ugly, then maybe ugly is the new handsome. Did anyone notice Jonathan’s expression when Megan gave Michael Ealy a long hug?
This is passionate love, real love, absolutely. Megan, what’s good, baby?
There’s definitely a lot going on with Megan lately. Let’s dive into what she said about her divorce from Devon and whether some of you were right in calling Devon a toxic religious person. Megan’s greatest fear was that her husband would leave her after 10 years of marriage, just like her parents did, and that’s exactly what happened.
For some background, Devon and Megan were married for nearly a decade. They often made headlines because Devon was constantly defending Megan from backlash from the Christian community about her style and fashion choices. Maybe he got tired of it, because in December 2021, Devon filed for divorce. Later, they released a joint statement confirming their split: “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. We are incredibly grateful for the life-changing years we’ve spent together as husband and wife.”
Devon later shared that he cried himself to sleep every night after the divorce, describing the experience as truly devastating. He said, “There are nights when I’m crying myself to sleep. There are moments when I’ve been angry, but I’ve allowed myself to feel whatever I felt in order to heal. Because in my experience, when I’m not facing what I’m feeling, then I’m trying to find something else to help me get through the pain.”
Megan, during a recent sit-down with Shannon Sharpe, called Devon a beautiful human being despite their split and expressed gratitude for their time together. She spoke highly of him, although many people were skeptical. Megan and Devon have been discreet about the details of their breakup, likely out of respect for each other, which is commendable. However, after Megan’s latest interview, people still remarked that it was evident they had very different personalities and lifestyles.
One issue that kept coming up was how Megan presented herself. With all the backlash she was facing, the criticism likely made it even harder for her and Devon to navigate their conflicting personalities. Another big topic was Megan’s reluctance to start a family with Devon. Despite their denials, many believed this choice played a role in their divorce.
There were also allegations about Devon’s behavior during their marriage. Even though he’s a pastor, some people said he was very toxic. Someone once claimed they overheard Megan in a restaurant washroom, reporting her every move to Devon, suggesting he might have been a control freak. Others noted that after they split, Megan landed more acting gigs, which hinted that Devon might have been holding her back while they were together. Given Megan’s history as a child actress, her relative absence from work during their marriage seemed unusual. Additionally, there was a rumor that Devon pressured Megan into bleaching her skin. Even though Megan hasn’t publicly criticized Devon, many think his toxicity contributed to their divorce. It’s possible their divorce agreement included a clause preventing them from speaking negatively about each other.
What surprised people even more was Megan moving on from Devon to Jonathan Majors. Megan started dating Jonathan while he was in court fighting allegations from his ex-girlfriend, Grace Jabbari, who claimed Jonathan injured her during an altercation caught on camera. Grace testified that the incident happened after she saw a text on Jonathan’s phone that read, “Oh, how I wish to be kissing you.” She said she tried to grab the phone from Jonathan, who then pried her finger from it, grabbed her arm and right hand, twisted her forearm, and struck her head to get the phone away from her.
During that time, Megan stood firmly by Jonathan’s side, even accompanying him to court and holding his hand through it all. She sat through Grace Jabbari’s testimony and endured the prosecution’s arguments, feeling frustrated by what she saw as unfair attacks on Jonathan’s character. Megan was especially bothered by the text messages between Jonathan and Grace that kept surfacing in court, convinced that Grace had been manipulative and controlling during their relationship.
According to Cat Williams, Megan’s striking appearance may have played a role in reducing Jonathan’s charges, jokingly saying, “Did you see that beautiful woman get half his charges cut? Thank you, Megan Good, for swooping in.” However, Cat didn’t hold back on his opinions about Jonathan’s looks, teasingly poking fun at his appearance. Megan quickly defended Jonathan, asserting, “To me, my man is sexy. Very sexy, okay? Let’s be clear on that.”
As for the video where Megan hugged Michael Ealy in front of Jonathan, there was talk about Jonathan’s reaction. Some witnesses noted that after the hug, Megan glanced at Jonathan to see how he was taking it, but he didn’t return her gaze, looking visibly upset.
Initially, it seemed like Michael was ignoring Jonathan and only hugging everyone else, but a longer video showed that he actually acknowledged Jonathan before giving Megan a big hug. Regardless, Jonathan’s expression was priceless—did you catch that look on his face? It was hilarious. Megan herself responded to the comments, jokingly saying, “So are we just going to edit out the part where Jonathan and Michael exchanged a big hug and spoke kindly to each other before he hugged me like a big brother? LOL, SMH.” She expressed frustration at how people jump to conclusions without knowing the full story.
What did you think? Did Jonathan still look annoyed to you? Also, Megan addressed the speculation about her partner, affirming that despite what was said, she finds him attractive. And her recent comments on her divorce—what’s your take on that? Join the conversation in the comments section below.
