Meagan and DeVon say "no one is at fault" following the end of their marriage.
'Think Like A Man' star Meagan Good and DeVon Franklin have decided to go their separate ways. The couple announced their shocking split in a joint statement this week.
"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," their statement read.
DeVon, who is a film producer and minister, reportedly filed for divorce on Monday. It's unclear why they decided to end their marriage, but they stress "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," their statement continued.

Meagan and DeVon's love story began when they connected "platonically" in 2011. They were both working on the movie, 'Jumping the Broom'.
The actress revealed that God told her that he would be her husband. She was in the tail-end of a toxic relationship at the time.
"The first thing God told me was that it was time to get out of that relationship. The second thing that God told me was that it was time to be celibate. The third thing God told me was that Devon was my husband," the 'Harlem' star in a 'Love From A Distance' interview.
The 40-year-old revealed that she knew for nine months after shooting the film that DeVon was her husband before he even asked her out on a date.
The couple eventually tied the knot in 2012.
"We are also extremely thankful to God for the testimony being created inside us both and for blessing our lives with each other," they said in their statement.
