Does anyone know why Denise Matthews marriage to Anthony Smith didn't work out?

I read that they were only married a year. Anyone know what happened?

She said in a recent interview that he cheated on her but although she forgave him, he still wanted to divorce her... sad

I also read some articles from the time they were married (in JET I think) that talked about them fighting a lot because she was so committed to her faith and all that.

Maybe he wondered why she had a purple wedding! I remember that. I would ask if I'm the only one who thought that was weird or reminiscent of her earlier relationship with someone purple, but somebody will tell me that I was!! LOL

Her health problems also played a role. I think he got tired of her having to do dialysis so many times a week. Yeah...it didn't help that he was cheating on her with other members of their church. disbelief He was a football player for the Oakland Raiders....she should have known dude wasn't about shit.

I'M NOT SAYING YOU'RE UGLY. YOU JUST HAVE BAD LUCK WHEN IT COMES TO MIRRORS AND SUNLIGHT!
