According to a recent interview with Billboard, Fantasia claims it didn’t take long for her to realize that her husband Kendall Taylor was the one.
In fact, it only took her three weeks and she claims the whole process was a spiritual one that included celibacy:
At the same time, back home in Charlotte, she was experiencing a whirlwind romance with Taylor, 35. “Everything changed when I met him,” she says. The connection was instantaneous: Just three weeks after meeting at a local club, the pair wed in 2015. The brief courtship was intense, fulfilling — and celibate; they didn’t consummate the relationship until their wedding night, she confides. “I just knew [he was the one]. I was getting ready to go on the road, and he got on his knees and said, ‘Can I pray for you? I just want to cover for you down the road.’ In the time I’d been fasting from relationships, I asked God for someone to pray for me — someone that could cover me and my kids [Dallas, 4, and Zion, 14] and be the man of the house. That’s when I knew.” A year later, she says she’s never felt stronger.
After what just happened with Keshia, I really hope this works out for Fanny.
I second that.
I think people shouldn’t rush into marriage but for all we know, these two may actually last. It’s not always the length of time people have been together that causes their divorce. I think it’s more of a character flaw, like with Keshia and Ed. Ed has proven time after time that he doesn’t take relationships seriously. He also seems like a user.
I don’t know why these black women with money keep marrying the same kind of men. Just to end up with egg on their faces later. And that’s all I have to say.
Fanny is my girl but she always is so impulsive when it comes to men.
Does celibacy even count if it’s only three weeks?
Oh hell no. That was the only reason why they married so quick. She ain’t fooling me.
Three weeks? She better be careful. And I won’t lie, I am side eyeing that let me pray for you line he gave her. A lot of men use religion to game women.
A disaster waiting to happen. I hope she made him sign a prenup.
Not everyone needs years to figure out who they are meant to be with. Some people just know pretty quickly. I wish them the best.
