Actress Meagan Good and actor Jonathan Majors are celebrating a significant milestone—their first year as a couple.
This relationship emerged following major life changes for both individuals. Prior to the pair's whirlwind romance, Good had ended her nearly decade-long marriage to producer and motivational speaker DeVon Franklin.
Meanwhile, Majors faced his own struggles. In March 2023, the Creed III star experienced a turbulent breakup with actress Grace Jabbari. This split led to Majors' arrest and subsequent charges of assault and harassment. Two months later, in May 2023, Majors and Good sparked dating rumors when they were spotted together. Their relationship captured public attention mainly due to the actor's legal troubles.
Throughout this challenging period, Good remained a pillar of support for Majors by regularly attending his court hearings and speaking positively about their relationship in public. Majors, in turn, expressed deep appreciation for the Harlem actress by praising her often for her unwavering support and affection. Despite their scrutiny and obstacles, the couple have maintained a united front, strengthening their bond in the face of adversity.
Recently, while backstage at the 2024 BET Awards, Good seized the opportunity to share insights about her relationship with Majors during an interview with Entertainment Tonight.
Meagan On Her One-Year Anniversary With Jonathan Majors
When asked about the couple's one-year dating anniversary and how they celebrated the special day, the 42-year-old revealed that their main focus was on remaining present and savoring that moment together.
“I don’t really know what to say except for, I celebrate it by being present, and being thankful. Being grateful. Learning, growing, accepting all that God is bringing without any fear… I’m happy, and I’m thankful. Like I feel free, which is a beautiful feeling,” she said.
Meagan On How This Love Is Different
Toward the end of the conversation, Good shared how her romance with Majors differs from her previous relationships.
“I think this love is different because I just don’t have any fear anymore,” she stated. “I guess that’s one of the things about divorce is, when you feel the worst has happened, you go, ‘oh okay, well I survived.’ Which means you just get freer and so I just feel complete freedom. That's a really, really, really wonderful place to be.”
Good's recent revelations about her relationship with Majors come weeks after publicly offering advice on navigating life after a breakup. Tyler Perry's Divorce in Black star emphasized the importance of gratitude for past moments and maintaining faith that something greater lies ahead. This sentiment appears to resonate in Good's current union with Majors, as she is experiencing a different kind of love she encouraged others to anticipate.
