Meagan Good has been promoting her new show "Deception" recently, but does not shy away from speaking about her recent marriage and how she believes God ordained it to happen.
Good, 31-year-old actress who is married to Hollywood film executive and preacher DeVon Franklin, recently appeared on "The Wendy Williams Show" where she opened up about her husband.
"DeVon is a preacher but he doesn't have a congregation. He does speaking engagements. We met six years before on a Christian film and he called me into his office and told me if I needed anything to definitely let him know," Good told Williams. "Then we met again when he executive produced 'Jumping The Broom.' And here we are."
The actress has been vocal about many details of their marriage that took place last June. While she wanted to keep some details private, Good spoke about panicking when her husband asked for her hand in marriage.
While Good said she dated Franklin for 10 months before exchanging vows, she also spoke about remaining celibate before they officially became husband and wife.

Box Office Update: Faith Titles Find Success
While the carnal "Hangover 2" grabs headlines and two other films ("POTC: On Stranger Tides," "Fast Five") surpass $200 million this summer, it's important to note that several faith-based films have garnered some success.
Most notably, "Soul Surfer" has defied expectations and is in the Top 30 for the year grossing $42 million. "Jumping the Broom" is at #38 with $37 million.
"Dawn Treader" remains in the Top 15 of DVD sales grossing over $24 million.
Two other titles are in the Top 100 - "The Grace Card" has made $2.4 million and "There Be Dragons" $1.1 million

Jumping The Broom Sweeps Up
Two wedding-tinged comedies had the misfortune of opening the same weekend. "Jumping the Broom" and "Something Borrowed," debuted closely together in third and fourth, respectively, though "Jumping" was more impressive, due to its far more modest production and marketing. "Something" made an estimated $13.2 million at 2,904 locations, while "Jumping" swept up a nice estimated $13.7 million at 2,035 locations.
The $6.6M-budgeted "Jumping the Broom" was produced by T.D. Jakes' production company. Founding pastor of The Potter’s House in Dallas Jakes told The Christian Post earlier this year that with his film company, T.D. Jake Enterprises, he hopes to change the “Hollywood machine” and widen the relationship between Hollywood and Christians, especially considering the two “haven’t spoken to each other in a while.”. This film is meant to spotlight marriage and abstinence.
Soul Surfer remained in the Top 10 at 9 and is approaching $40 million.
