Terry Crews’ Wife Gives ‘Praise and Glory to God’ for Restoring Marriage
By Movieguide® Contributor
Terry Crews’ wife Rebecca credits her faith for getting through tough times in her marriage.
“First and foremost, I always have to give all praise and glory to God…forgiveness is not easy,” she told BlackAmericaWeb.com.
Fourteen years ago, Terry admitted to infidelity as well as a pornography addiction.
“Pornography…really, really messed up my life in a lot of ways,” he said of his struggle. “I believed that I was more valuable than my wife as a human being because I was a man. And when you believe that you are more valuable than another person, you kind of feel like they owe you. And I was wrong.”

“It was hard…a lot of tears, a lot of fighting. We threw things, we broke things, but we knew we wanted this family to make it,” she explained. “We fought for it…both of us fought for it with equal commitment.”
In an interview with The Christian Post, Rebecca said, “Today, I look at my husband, and I always say he’s a better man than me. He took hold of the Word of God, and he took hold of the Scriptures, and he just ran with all his might. He said, ‘God, I don’t want to be like this anymore.’ And he amazes me every day. He really is the kinder, gentler version of Terry Crews because he let God do a work in his life.”
“We are by no means perfect, but I love the relationship we have today,” she concluded. “It’s free from fear.”

Rebecca also spoke about juggling motherhood, her musical career and her new clothing store, saying, “What I did was I just separated those two paths.”
“I remember something, I believe Michelle Obama said it…that you can have it all, but not all at once,” she explained. “I focused on my children for many years and worked sporadically. Once they were growing up, I just started going after my own dreams, doing the music, doing television, all that.”
Rebecca shared that she has “some music sitting in the can…so hopefully this year I can put that stuff out.”
