Israel's ex wife tweeted in support of Adrienne thanking her for being so great to their kids. They have respect for each other which wouldn't happen if one relationship began before another ended. Adrienne is a genuine person. Wish them all the best.
Can see his ex-wife not wanting negativity hanging over her children's father. She seems to be a true Christian, who has stayed out the limelight and made no comments concerning his cheating and having two children outside their marriage, so can see her doing that.
Celebrity couples especially newly married couples need to not give interviews and just live in their own bliss. They end up eating their words not too long afterwards. Israel doesn't have a good track record when it comes to marriage so he needs to hush.
It was in the best interest that this interview not be done . They have answered and confirmed what I have known. By Israel's own confession he cheated 5 years ago so he was in fact dealing with Adrienne and another woman he had 2 additional children with. My heart breaks for his 20 year marriage to Maleasa. It doesn't matter how they spin this...it was wrong. I love his ministry btw..and they have to live with their choices.
@@jag8492 so true. He's forgotten HOLINESS. When money is involved and Yah has made your name great and your gifts have made room for you, I guess the straight and narrow doesn't matter now. Do as you please and live how you want to. Wow! This saddens me. Some of these gospel artist, leaders, etc. within body have forgotten the old path. The Ancient of Days.
Don’t speak ill on the ex, learn your faults in the relationship and own them. We do not know what Israel put the other woman through, and Adrienne needs to be wise because hunny your now the wife. He will repeat what he did not learn in the first marriage. This video felt worldly, but who am I to say.
Israel is so distasteful to shade the mother of your kids which you invested years in. Compliment Adrienne without having to step on your past relationship
wow.just wow. i really hope his ex wife never sees this video..how disrepectful! i attended Lakewood and Israel used to get on stage and talk about his amazing wife. now he is saying he was "tolerated"...wow
I like Adrienne. I like Israel. But for some reason it seems like they are trying to convince others that they are genuinely in love with each other and happy. That's not necessary, because if you are it will show. Adrienne come across as proving to prople. I also feel that Adriene comes across as a little more in charge. I understand Israel is probably more laid back. But Adrienne please allow him to speak for himself. You seem like you are putting more in the relationship and making it to appear to be more than what it is. Love should flow. It's not a puzzle where you put the pieces in the right place. Let love do what it suppose to do. It should be mutual with a husband and a wife.
I think because they are constantly judged for their relationship. People keep asking about their relationship so they always take the opportunity to explain how they got together. One day hopefully they won't have to explain themselves anymore.
SHES FULL OF SHIT.....SHE IS LIEN.....THAT WORLDLY ASS...IS JUST JUSTIFYING HER SO CALL LOVE...SHES JUST INTERESTED IN HIS MONEY.....WE SEE IT....A....GO SIT B.C DOWN.
This man of God, minister, gospel artist with a whole audience/following cheats on his wife of years the mother of his kids and allegedly has kids with this other woman. So dude live’s a double life for who knows how many years and was ministering to people about Jesus at the same time.... how is this okay? God’s grace and forgiveness gotcha. But then comes gets a divorce because of his adultery. Find himself a beautiful woman like Adrienne moves on with his happy life and now he is celebrated by the world because of his beautiful new marriage...continues with his happy life with his stage and following. I understand God is a God of second chance but the last thing this man deserves is a platform. I’m not buying it or celebrating this foolishness. My heart God out to his ex wife that has to see this praying for her healing. I really hope it goes well in new marriage nevertheless. But my discernment say it ain’t love, it’s lust... and lust is blinding.
Thank God your opinion and judgement doesn't count. So easy for us to hide our own sins and condemn others until you are passing his judgement. Am greatffull God isn't some of you, if not grace and mercy will be far fetched.
Ugh Israel you make me like you even less than i already do. "Its the first time in a relationship I feel celebrated not tolerated." Thats just a lie and you know it. Stop trying to excuse your cheating on your wife. Just accept you made a mistake and move on but stop dragging down your poor ex wife and make her look like the bad guy.
WEALTHY 570 ... yeah you are right, mother's love are supposed to be unconditional but not all mothers have that kind of heart. My dad was the one with that Golden Heart... He loved us more than a mother should and died in the process of fighting for us....
Yes I get that, because I always felt like my ex didnt quite treat me like family, that's a very important feeling in a relationship, someone who treats you like your thier very own..
When your wife is a liar and u just sit there tryna look all like it's true that could NEVER be God! It was also very low for you to throw shade at your ex-wife like that. #Shameful
Adrienne is a beautiful woman and Israel's music really ministers to the spirit. Whether their relationship is "right" or "wrong" we have a responsibility to LOVE and PRAY for them bc God will judge us all one day. If you personally don't feel their relationship is godly then don't pattern yourself after them and keep your criticism to yourself. Real love is concerned and prays for people. 😊
I like when he said he felt celebrated not tolerated. I've heard negative things about their getting together but as we all know no one knows your business like you know your business so I wish them the best. I loved their union from the beginning. Be blessed and happy you guys.
Interesting when they talk about what makes them special to each other, they don’t talk about the individual traits/ character they posess, just how they make THEM feel... just an observation
Yeah usually that makes them narcisissts in most cases but Adrienne was mistreated and cheated on in her past relationships sp Israel was the first to really appreciate her.
Israel you had a powerful ministry ground breaking albums why did you have to go in this 'celebrity' direction? No offence but this doesnt feel right. Its like Jesus is not the centre like your song says. I pray you both go in a ministerial direction.
I thought it was interesting that he said they read the book "The Wait" to help them date. Uhhhhh, since he sings gospel music, I would expect him to say the BIBLE was the inspiration for them remaining celibate.
I wish Adrienne would keep some stuff between her an Israel and not share them with the world.Like the details!you are just giving people more to say and the detectives evidence lol
So true she justify a lot, like she did something wrong being with a cheater...the funny thing what happened to the secret kids with the other women, I don't get it, she says he is celebrated, of course he is happy
@@carolinedavis7228 there is no denying thay they look and seem happy and in love.It's just that so many people are waiting for them to say more to use it against them.Me personally I would keep certain things private.I am not them so whatever suits them.
I'll let everybody else comment on here, Adrienne wanted to be married very bad as she should, sad to say ex wife tryna move on in spite of, This interview is BS, tryna convince us why they need to be together, lots of hidden secrets here🤔🤔 my final thought, , Israel had lust for her , he had eyes on her all along , ( e.g movie - I'm in love with a church girl) and for some reason they dont compliment each other, something isn't right here, time will tell, the absolute truth will come out
Congrats to you both! Your story and theirs sounds completely different though. There's doesn't seem as cut and dry. It includes much more mess. You two sound great!
My husband and I got married 4 months after we started dating lol. We actually only went on two dates before we got engaged. But God willing, we’ve been married for 16 years. I knew I was going to marry my husband after the first date. I wasn’t wrong lol 😂 Every love story is different
My husband proposed two weeks after us meeting each other. I told him he was crazy! 😄 But, I knew he was the one, I just didn’t want to rush things. Six months later we were married, & now after ten years of an extremely happy love life, he still leaves me love notes everyday & calls me from work a couple of times a day to say he loves me. I am truly blest. 💖
A wife and mother is very different from being a wife with no kids. You want to be celebrated by your mate wait untils there is a baby in the house. She will struggle to celebrate herself let alone you.
This whole interview is a total BS! Bring me two ppl who have been through a rough time in their relationship but managed to stick together n make it together, that would be inspirational, but with all due respect this woman have lots of self love and self esteem issues! Besides what’s inspirational n genuine about a story of a man who’s been married for 20 years n who’s left his wife n got together with a woman who was already in a relationship! Not hating but form here interviews this woman has issues!
That's not life, dear. Some relationships don't work out. Y'all kill me with this foolishness. Life ain't perfect. Go have real experiences and then come back here and post.
He said the same thing about his first wife! All of this is very interesting. . . It's like he was never married to anyone before this. These women think their life is gonna be better or different when they marry men who cheat and lie. Like you are the magic pill. SMH. I'm sure his first wife was just as happy to be with him and wanted to have his kids too. She probably never imagined that her family would be broken up because of his infidelity and I'm also sure his mistress thought she might marry him (especially after having 2 babies). And I'm NOT hating, but I just don't get these women thinking they can change a man. He's clearly charming or he wouldn't be able to keep getting women to trust and talk to him. Get a clue, ladies! The best predictor of future behavior is past behavior - a fact - We'll see where they are in 10 years. We have all seen so many people get into new relationships and just love each other so much until the "feels" where off. I could be wrong, but let's just give them some time. And, did anyone "catch" her say they were living in the same building? I personally feel like we aren't ever gonna get the complete truth out of these two and I'm tired of people getting false hope from couples like this. Marriage is hard work and it's a journey to be enjoyed, but when they present it like it's a fairytale that's not truthful or good for others.
Dear Jane You make some very accurate points. I do pray they have a long and blessed Union; we are all worthy of love, forgiveness, and redemption. Only time will tell. Love cannot exist with a tally. With that being said, I personally am challenged with this. Charm can be so deceptive and time shows the truth. The problem is some men really know how to wait it out before you see it all. A lot of people are chasing the Honey moon phase but a relationship is about that plus being responsible and accountable to another person. It can be a labor of love and folks are scared to work. Lastly, you can’t change a man or grow him up. I follow my fathers advice and I do not make excuses for a man either.
Something is odd because first the story was they met on her film "Im in love with a Church girl" which he produced and she starred in with Ja Rule, then it was they were all friends while he was married to his ex, now its they lived in the same building. This was never mentioned before this being neighbours thing. Something feels off.
Adrienne and Isreal I pray you overlook each and every negative comment and know that there are people who genuinly are proud and happy for you two me being one of them I am so excited for what the future holds for you both. Ade you look so beautiful and you are wearing that dress! Come through hips! And Izzy as always you look polished and Clean. Stay blessed. #LoveconquersALL #RoadtoDemaskus #TheytalkedaboutJesus
They talked about Jesus because of His righteousness and that He was counter-cultural. They're getting talked about because of obvious sin issues and questionable integrity. All of our actions have consequences, but I'm sure they have a way to deal with it. I'm sure fans like you help them in that regard. 🤷🏾♀️
why are they always trying to explain their relationship and trying to justify their being together............too bad for his faithful Loving Ex wife.....your wife cared for you and your children for all those years at least show some gratitude in your testimomies of her Isreal comeon!!!!!!!!!!!
I love that their relationship has been shining as a positive one considering all the backlash and negativity in the beginning. They are still in the honeymoon phase obviously, but are progressing TOGETHER despite all of the hate and negativity and that to me is worth celebrating. I also love the light that was shed on them waiting until marriage as well to have sex. Also...Beautiful! Madame Noire, kudos for this one!
i hope they never lose this connection they hold... i don’t think they will, Adrienne is literally the definition of unconditional love i swear. she loves with all of her being and you can see that she loves him! she’s had her fair share of filthy relationships and she found a MAN that will treat her like she DESERVES and vice versa. he found his soulmate in a woman he met after he did many stupid things... everyone can change but it takes a strong person to change themselves but it takes an even stronger person to stand by somebody going through the motions. i wish y’all nothing but the best in this life. love to the ends of this earth and never let go of anything that makes you happy... love makes the world go round. 💙 good luck
I believe she's crazy for him..but I don't feel it's mutual..that man know he gave up ALOT..and he shows it..because he always looks very uncomfortable with her..I believe he really didn't want to be married..or married AGAIN..but I'll keep watching them..but I'm not convinced in this couple's "so in love" act
@@CassyPalmer yeah I heard that part. But her saying that she was annoyed when they didnt like him...and her friend pointed out since she likes him so much she should go out with him. They're still saying that was 5 years ago when she was setting him up.
P Smith I’m assuming that was after she left Lenny. It’s easy to fall into the oh something doesn’t add up situation but they are a really nice couple everyone including Lenny and Israel’s ex wife seems really happy for them. I wouldn’t literally go and tell every single detail so it’s just the rumors that make us think twice sometimes. Don’t feed into it . 🙂
@@CassyPalmer Adrienne and Israel are cool, but I'm not a super fan like that to just go along with everything I hear. If I'm confused ... I'm just confused lol. Stop doing interviews if you don't want people to say anything. 😊
P Smith yes she was dating Lenny but it wasn’t until 2015 she went on a date with Israel. Hence why she was trying to set Israel up with her friends at first because she wasn’t interested at first.
I don’t buy it. There’s something a little off about this relationship that I question weather or not they really are legit believers. Every time Adrienne speaks on the REAL it’s 90% inappropriate. And this guy sounds like he went after the sex.
Being a freak isn’t wrong since sex is natural for every couple. I think it’s inappropriate to be so OPEN about that when it regards a worship leader with a platform and then the female is screaming out Bible verses and Hallelujah in the show. Which is it? Respectful or foolish?
I respect that but I honestly disagree. The reason why sex is still a taboo, especially in churches is because someone made it something so secretive that people could not discuss it. God made marriage, sex... etc. It's neither foolish or respectful in my opinion, it is just this great thing called sex. The pastor in my church tells all the time to have sex with our spouses. Pastors are leaders in the church but also sexual human beings, which is what God made us. You want to inspire us with how your marriage is full of sex and y'all are so happy and preach about bible verses at the same time? By all means. It is all by God.
I understand your response as my spouse is a co-pastor at my church and he does encourage intimacy between married couples ALL THE TIME. However, there is no need to go into detail about what goes on in the bedroom with a gospel leader. Especially when they discuss becoming drunk from alcohol. People look up to him. It’s just not the best thing to do on tv if you say you serve God. I like his music and I like her personality. I said they look foolish because their words don’t match their actions.
1 Corinthians 6:9-10 9 Or do you not know that the unrighteous2 will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: xneither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality,3 10 nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.
I truly feel their love for each other. Their love story has brought me to tears. I'm so happy for them. They are an inspiration to me. I hope to one day find love like that.
I dont know if its the way he is dressed, but he reads scam artist. And phony. Maybe Adrienne really is in love, but this man seems like he is trying to make his first wife seem like less than enough by the constant comparisons.
Well when you've been in a marriage before you'll definitely try to do things differently because you have experience!!! Don't talk about not being celebrated when clearly your ex wife was the one that had to deal with all the flaws! You're perfect for her because she doesn't get to experience the "real" you.
Isreal how many relationships have u been in! I'm curious with the statement! The first relationship that made u feel celebrated! How old r u! Ok u been w your wife 20 yrs! U nvr felt celebrated n 20 yrs! So b4 ya wife how many relationships???? And she came right after ya wife! So u must have started dating at 10 yrs old if u had a ton of relationships and still managed to b faithfully married for 20 yrs bro! This storyline ain't adding up!!!!!
Yeah... I have no idea why people keep acting like there is this huge age difference because there isn’t. She is a grown woman...in her mid 30s it isn’t like she is 22
Wow! "It's the first time in my life I feel celebrated not tolerated" "I come home and there's just that welcome home, that feeling, a guy will break his neck just to experience that feeling and I would do anything for her coz she makes me feel like that". Talk about shade. 😑
Awww i sure didnt like the way Adrian told Israel shut up. A woman of God should never say that to her husband especially in front of the 🌎 World. Israel is such a nice person and deserves respect.
They have the guts to be happy in their wrong ......anyway I can't throw stones we all have our skeletons!! But sin should never be celebrated rather exposed
YEA SHE THINKS SHE A BIG DEAL. FAKE ASS...LOOK WOMEN THIS IS WHAT A JEEZEBEL LOOKS LIKE....GOLD DIGGER FAKE....MORE WORLDLY THAN HOLY......SHE HAS TO SHOW HER RING WHEN SHE TALKS...LIKE PUR UR HANDS DOWN. STOP FAKING....I KNOW YOU.....TRUST ME UR SO FAKE
I can't watch them because they just seem messy to me. Happy people are happy, you don't have to broadcast it constantly. Unless you're trying to send a message. To whom are you sending it? True love will show!! Plus, Adrianne you may have not been the "cause" of his marriage failing, but you played apart in it not being restored. A Separated "godly" man, is still MARRIED! According to the reports, his divorce was not final when y'all started dating. He should have presented your relationship better. He didn't cover the character you're claiming, but rather you both were exposed and that's when you came out claiming this undying love. Israel needs to be sure that if he truly repented for cheating on his ex- wife again and again; then he needs to also be sure never to shame or shade her in any way.
Why are all these comments so negative. Y’all are reading weird meanings into this. Let’s be happy for them and stop being judgemental. They’re a beautiful couple. Wishing them all the best
They trying to force feed us this relationship. If it's built on truth it will stand and you ain't gotta keep telling us about it. Shout out to the first wife for staying in the trenches. All other parties are completely delusional, superficial, and downright tacky to be flaunting this.
His ex-wife could have dragged him but did not. She has stayed out the limelight and made no comments concerning his cheating and having two children outside their marriage. Now that's a true Christian and a lady.
@@deemichelle Amen. Adrienne is going to dig her ditch. NOTHING good ever come out of this people. I don't care how long they last Jesus says No. Wait till Judgment Day. Sad
News flash, you don't always like your mate. Rookies. You will argue, you will disagree, but you should never struggle to say what is you love about each other.
I pray that as we continue to grow in CHRIST...men and women listen. It is not your mates job to make you feel a certain way. Marriages go through things. Was the woman celebrated and not tolerated as well?? That is why we both need to be 100 percent whole before marriage. Not broken and wounded. Healing from wounds the Godly way takes time. Twenty years is a long time. Your heart does not snatch away that fast. The same for me. You have to know where your place is with your marriage even when that person may not tell you they love you often. When kids come, life changes. You are still married, but this innocent person, your child... who needs building, needs to be celebrated, needs both parents for guidance. Remember if Israel cheated, his wife did tolerate him from a place of hurt. How do you celebrate adultery?? Forgiven yes, but do not say that this was your only relationship where he felt this way. I pray the best for them both. However, speak truth completely. Maybe something like this..."I was tolerated because I hurt my ex. My ex could not celebrate me because she couldn't trust me. When I left home she didn't know what I was doing."".... tell the whole truth...please!! The world is watching those of us representing Christ. I am divorced as well and I teach at times. I can not and I do not act as though a new relationship is so much better. I share my mishaps as well. Not just the mistakes of my ex. I did not choose to be divorced either. I was left behind when spouse chose to move on. I learned a lot. I learned a valuable lesson. We share kids together. I have to watch my words and yet tell the truth. I praise my God for the newness and the freshness of a new beginning. I praise Him for healing me first. That is when healing has happened. I do not have to make you look bad in order for me to look good or my relationship look so much better. I hope I made sense....This hit me..
Stanley Chaney you not going to change her mind and I pray that you get touch my God in a great way. He sure do exist He have physically heal me when doctors could not .
Natasha, you make a lot of sense. It hit me too and I'm not divorced or ever married. When he said it, I wondered how his ex wife felt. It wasn't a kind comment. Real talk, I don't believe Israel is healed from his past at all. He made a bed with Adrienne and now he's acting as if he's comfortable. It's a sham. He willingly married an unbeliever because he has a JLo fetish and fantasy. There's something highly disingenuous about Adrienne. She's playing a role of a Holy Christian woman who was never that before Israel.
Y'all are crazy. Imagine hearing the truth from the two people involved in this relationship and y'all are calling them liars? Damn, y'all need help. One person even says they are trying so hard to seem happy. LIKE, WHAT!???? They are happy. Just say you can't see it. Damn, humans. Exhausting.
@@psmith5988 I love them as a couple... but alot of secrets. I think they both had a crush on each other for a longggg while, but they were both in "situations" so they just hung onto each other, but it looks like Israel was like, look A!! Lenny aint gonna marry you, my marriage, I'm trying to keep it together for the "church", but ain't nothing going on. After year 5, he's like, Times up!! If we can't be together. Damn, I'll settle for being your neighbor!
If your heart isn't capable of loving and or falling in love with something or someone that your eyes don't find beauty in, then you could be missing out on something grand one day.
I understand why he doesn't want to be seen. I'm sorry but he looks sugary sweet and old..and she needs to move that wig back. This was a man of God caught on a lovers vacation and got the boot from his church. He has kids all around and cheated on his ex wife. But hey if they want to continue this tour of a "love' story..by all means.
Even if this was true, why empty someone's laundry like that? or does't he deserve a second chance? n who told you that he cheated ? where you there? any proof? he has come out n said it again n again that he didn't but it seems like you want to continue to paint this man badly. Even king David, a man after God's own heart (not my words, but God's) what did he do? he slept with a married woman and then had her husband killed so he can take her for himself but yet God was merciful. You all really need to stop this negativity or jealousy and simply enjoy life and be good. serve your God n drink your water. Cheating and spreading lies about someone you have never ever seen in your life is as bad as whatever you believe him to have done. Relationships can fail because we are humans but thankfully, with Grace we can move on and have pursue happiness again. Isreal's wife is such an awesome friend with Adrienne and she is not even mad at her of what they got cos she knows the truth. Be careful on the info you spread, they aren't Godly
Ok....First of all who are you to them to know if truly they're lovers vacation or whatever that you believe they are????? who are you to think that this is some sort of a tour "love story'? like u're saying on your comment? who are you to them? are you related to both or either of them? are you? I'm most definitely sure that you're not so...... even if he looks old or sugary or whatever you think guess what? they're obviously very much in love and happily married and I'm sure you're not and if you're married you must be miserably married or something, for you to write something so negative, so mean, so false, so wrong and so bitter about two gorgeous people in love and happily married you MUST be miserable if not then you MUST not have a life.... I can tell you where to find one....Find Jesus Christ because you need him. just by reading your comment I can already see/feel the hate, jealousy, bitterness and misery coming out of it. You can't talk about people like that, you clearly don't know them like that, never met and would probably never meet them once in your life. just because you read it somewhere on social media now you think you know them?? and you think it's true? most things written on social are false.... even if they're true who are you to judge? he's a man of God, yes we all know that, we surely love his music and low key I'm sure you're one of his biggest fans... and he made a mistake like all of us do, so what? are you a saint? are you holy like GOD or JESUS? Absolutely NOT.... get a life in Jesus and stop judging ppl you don't know and quit believing everything you read on social media period
Mark 10:11-12 11 He answered, “Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery against her. 12 And if she divorces her husband and marries another man, she commits adultery.”
I'm confused. So now we can get a divorce and remarry like whenever we want to? Forget the principles in the Kingdom just do it the way you want to do it? Correct me please if I'm wrong! If he and his 1st wife didn't divorce for infidelity, doesn't this make her an adulteress? Where is the standard of HOLINESS?
I've always loved Israel but I question his Belief System now and I find it hard to support Men who are Unfaithful in their Marriage. I met Meleasa in Australia and she is Great and the way she supported you wow now you say that you didn't feel Celebrated. She prayed in the front while you sang interceeding for you. So be Gracious and don't put Meleasa down.
Imagine thousands of people were speaking destructuon and negativity over you and your marriage. .... even if this union was birthed in "sin" God is a redeeming God! Let them try and live their best lives moving forward #2ndchance #onlyGodcanjudge
