Meagan Good and DeVon Franklin are looking ahead to a new year after announcing their decision to divorce last month.
Franklin, 43, rang in 2022 with a tearful throwback selfie that he said captured his emotions on New Year’s Day.
“I took this picture a few months ago, I’m not much of a crier so in a moment of deep pain and peace, I took this picture. It captures best how I feel,” the preacher wrote on Instagram.
“I share this with you because it is the most honest way to start this year. … So often I’ve come into a new year with all the things I hope to do better and I would carry around this feeling of ‘I didn’t do enough last year‘ or ‘I’m not enough so I must do…more,'” he added. “I’m breaking my addiction to the ‘new’ and working on being fully committed to what’s ‘true.'”
“I am fully in pain and peace as we start 2022 and that’s the truest place for me to be. Thank you for your prayers, I feel each of them and I’m praying you…here’s to the true (whether old or new) Happy True Year!” Franklin concluded.
Meanwhile, Good, 40, celebrated New Year’s Day with her own uplifting message, sharing photos of herself in a stunning green, one shoulder dress, accessorised with a flower in her hair.
“2021…You brought me the highest life changing affirming highs.. And the lowest gut wrenching soul breaking lows.. Although I’m grieving… I’m also in glorious awe and thankfulness to you God. They say all endings are also beginnings,” Meghan Good wrote on Instagram. “2022, I’m choosing to be excited about what the beginning of this next act of life brings. Lord I trust you.”
Meghan Good married Franklin in June 2012 in Malibu, California, after they met on the set of the movie Jumping the Broom in 2011 when he was working as a studio executive.
They announced their split in a joint statement in December, six months after celebrating their ninth wedding anniversary. “After much prayer and consideration, we have decided to go into our futures separately but forever connected,” they said.
