Actress Meagan Good recently shared insights into her past marriage with DeVon Franklin during an appearance on The Jason Lee Show. The episode is set to premiere on April 13, 2024, and delves into Good’s journey through her divorce and her new life with husband Jonathan Majors.
Good was married to Franklin, a producer and motivational speaker, for nearly a decade. They first crossed paths on the set of the romantic comedy Jumping the Broom, where Good showcased her acting talent, while Franklin took on the role of producer. Reports from People indicate that their romance began professionally in what would become a significant personal journey.
During their relationship, Good and Franklin made a notable choice to remain celibate until their wedding day. In a joint appearance on the Tamron Hall Show in December 2019, Franklin shared insights, stating:
“Relationships are so hard and, truth be told, there’s not a lot of guidance out there, so we wanted to share our truth and that waiting to have sex was a critical part of the healthy foundation of our marriage and relationship.”
The couple tied the knot in July 2012 but announced their decision to part ways in December 2021. In a joint statement to People, they reflected on their marriage with fondness:
“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. We are also extremely thankful to God for the testimony being created inside us both and for blessing our lives with each other.”
Reflections on Her Journey
In her candid discussion on The Jason Lee Show, Meagan Good offered a deeper understanding of her relationship with DeVon Franklin, emphasizing that he initiated their divorce. However, she described the separation as a mutual decision characterized by mutual respect, noting:
“It’s not that anybody did anything wrong, and I can’t say that he f****d that up, and I can’t say that I f****d that up.”
Good expressed profound gratitude for the time shared with Franklin, acknowledging the growth and lessons learned during their relationship:
“We grew from it, I don’t think that any time was wasted. They were only here for this amount of time, and I got to be that close to them, and I got to give this much to them, and they got to give this much to me. Be really, really thankful for all the time you had.”
Now in a new chapter of her life, Meagan Good has married Jonathan Majors, as reported by People. The couple tied the knot in March 2025 after a two-year courtship, marking a hopeful new beginning for the actress.
