EXCLUSIVE: EMANUEL "Da'TRUTH" LAMBERT & BRI BABINEAUX-LAMBERT Invites Us Into Their Love Journey

[@ulyssia.dennis]

Prayers up for God’s blessing on Emmanuel and Bri’s marriage. Also, prayers up for Emmanuel’s first wife. I can only imagine what it must be like for her after 21 years of marriage, raising children, supporting his art and standing by him after his infidelity. May she also receive healing and her redemption love story.

[@tellme26]

I know this won't be a popular comment, but I make it in an effort to think critically - not just criticize for the sake of criticizing. I think sometimes conversations on platforms like this can unintentionally glamorize certain scenarios. Scripture is a bit more stringent on the subject of divorce and remarriage than our culture is comfortable with accepting at times. It's hard to reconcile someone saying that they love God AND the institution of marriage, yet they were *unfaithfully* married for 21 years; realized the lessons they needed to learn (but seemingly didn't use them to change their behavior and stay married), is still fairly recently divorced, and went on to "privately" remarry (in this case someone much younger) and call that remarriage redemption as they didn't want to be alone. It seems like being alone was not the problem. We're all broken in different ways. Scripture doesn't tell us we need to be perfect (or completely healed) to marry or stay married to someone we have sinned against or who has sinned against us. But scripture it does tell us how to conduct ourselves so that either our singleness or our marriage makes us more like Christ, and reflects His relationship to the church. I think if we publicly tell this fairytale portion of the story, it's fair to question whether or not there was true, Biblical repentance and effort put into reconciling and restoring the first covenants that were made - not just, "I was broken so I made a mess over there...but come, look at how beautiful this other thing is that I just did." This is a complex topic. This is a complex scenario. I genuinely wish these two God's best.

I hope yall know that divorce is not an overnight process. It can be months to years to become legally divorced depending on the status of the person. Although their divorces were both finalized in 2023, the healing from those marriages could have taken place long before the divorce became official. Everything isn’t shady! Stop trying to pick apart the time line and just celebrate that God gave them both a second chance at love.

[@aerdnanosna]

So true. That's my story. I received the decree April 2024 and the process started 2019. I started believing love isn't possible anymore.

[@DanielleTRushin]

He said “ when I was in my single space I was really low…” That one statement makes me scared for Bri. I pray to God that this is the beginning of a lifetime of purpose and happiness for her. To come out of a 21 year marriage and get remarried so soon after, seems way too fast of a “detox” period for a healthy single period. I know Anything is possible with God and He can definitely move things fast. I really like Bri and I really hope she is now in her ordained purposeful marriage and not another toxic situation. God bless them both. I really mean that. ❤

[@mysticmonkey6738]

i was thinking the same thing... because he said he got divorced 2023. that is very soon but no judgement but just makes you ponder. Especially when he said he didn't like being single.

[@cjmorris6101]

I think it's been said, but it's possible his divorce was just 'finalized' in 2023. It's quite possible he and his ex separated way before then and he started the healing process. That was true for me and my ex. It took 2 yrs or so before the paperwork was finalized but we weren't living in the same house and were working to heal. Cases just get backed up in court. Especially when you have assets, children, etc... Anytime it's rescheduled, it could be MONTHS out.

Thanks for sharing this comment! You just gained a new subscriber. I’ve walked through divorce and it needs to be talked about more.

[@Dayo_kid]

I thought this was a beautiful chat but please let’s not discuss chats like this as though they should be the norm more than maybe an exception or something to go to God about. I mean if we are to talk about remarriage it would be important to discuss Matthew 5:31-32 & 19:3-9 ; what does our spirit and the word say about remarriage and not even in judgement because we are flawed and weak but I think it’s because we don’t acknowledge we’re going too fast from one thing to the next that Jesus is also like hey, that shouldn’t be a norm either . Just because it’s marriage doesn’t mean that remarriage should be looked at so lightly. We shouldn’t look to another lover and go where’s my next, where’s my next, where’s my next . I would think that God is a lot more intentional with who you really should be with.

He didn’t take responsibility for the adultery he committed throughout his 21yr marriage. That is a major red flag! Not discussing children from first marriage another red flag. New love is exciting. The only way you can know if you’re being lovebombed by a repeat offender is not getting “hooked on a feeling” and seeking GOD concerning the matter.

[@melissas_heart]

After listening to this episode on Apple Podcast, I came over to KZbin to post a comment because I felt every part of this episode to my core. From start to finish, I cried, cried some more, laughed, high fived Bri on several points (including not giving a man my phone number, having a Mr. Sandpaper in your life, and seeking therapy to help me desire to respect and honor my future spouse), and rejoiced when I heard how God wrote a love story that encourages and inspires many. I love Bri’s songs, especially I Will Wait, the anthem to my single season. Emmanuel’s collab with Kirk Franklin the song I used to teach my children to see themselves when they were littles (now they are in their 20’s and they still sing it). Like Bri, I never thought that love would happen for me. So I paused the episode and cried an ugly cry from my soul. At 50, I have only ever given my heart and complete trust to one man at the age of 21. He cheated one time and produced a child. The broken woman in me would not forgive him or move past it, while he literally spent the rest of his life trying to fix it. Only for him to be killed by the woman he got pregnant, because he expressed to her that he loved me and was going to marry me. I was informed by his best friend that his father found the engagement ring he planned to give me when he would propose on the day he died. He asked me the Friday before to page him so that we can meet up and talk. I agreed. Then on Sunday, I refused , in order to teach him a lesson. Stubborn. Foolish. She killed him around the time I was supposed to page him. I lost him… and I lost me in August 1995. Since then, I never felt like I deserved a second chance, even though God promised me to give me a love that I have never known. I have been with others and have four children, but I never married one of them. I became a runaway bride, because I never felt like I deserved love again. It took 29 years for me to see how foolish I have been in my relationships. I need r to learn the lesson, and this was my punishment. Until… I heard this episode. I stepped away from social media weeks ago to do a deeper work. I finally “buried” my first love on Christmas Day 2024 (I never attended his funeral, and retrieved my heart only to give it to God fully to heal. This episode gave me hope as I grieved what was not, and I faced myself fully for the first time. I am heading back to therapy to work on broken parts of that story so that when love steps in again, I will take his hands and trust me to be ready to honor and respect him all the days of my life. Thank you Bri and Emmanuel for trusting Laterras with your inspiring story. Thank you Laterras for continuing the work and loving well the love of your life. All of it inspires hope. 🙏🏾💜

A beautiful prayer point to have, Lord let my spirit be sensitive to my spouse so I know when he/she is bothered/burdened. It really touched me when she said every time she was down, even when he wasn’t physically present, he sensed it and checked in. That’s more than an emotional connection. God’s presence is strong because we have not an high priest that cannot but be touched by the feelings of our infirmity (Hebrews 4:15-16) oh how He so loves us that He checks in when we feel down through the people we love and are safe with. May God bless their union. Love, maturity, discipline, willingness, respect and Biblical principles are what maintains Christian marriages.

One of THE most SEASONED interviews I’ve watched…this one brought real tears to me from every emotion. I loved their transparency and joy for each other. I rejoice in seeing the Lord’s hand move on their behalf; as He provided them with the unconditional love and life He already prearranged and made ready for them both to live. #GodSpeedToALongHealthyMarriage #gotnext

This was sad no matter how much giggling and sprinkles they're attempting to put on this.

[@abawitx]

This 💯

[@hi127]

Yeah

[@bobbywilsonfunfaithfamilymusic]

Shalom, WAKE THAT MIND UP! Thanks for sharing this conversation with " Da 'TRUTH" and BRI, their story is interesting and inspirational. Emanuel' and BRI' comments and transparency on the good, bad and ugly and success is spot on. "Da 'TRUTH" & Bri, thank you.

[@CassandraChaPaul]

Let me preface this by saying I am happily married for 29 years. I have many different roles and responsibilities. Including Therapist. I say/ask respectfully. I wish after interviews like this, the exes of these people had an opportunity to have THEIR perspectives heard. 21 years is a long time. And my heart aches for this woman that has endured her husband cheating multiple times on her. Happy for Bri, but as a woman in a long term relationship, I would want to hear the heart of the former wife. Is she happy and congratulatory?? Especially to hear her ex husband speak so well of marriage-NOW. I don’t know the details. That is why I would love to hear THAT side. Prayers for this couple. Congratulations!

[@nicholeellington4855]

Sometimes people have requested not to be spoken of. He could be respecting their wishes to keep them out of the public eye. Not everyone wants to share or be seen. This may or may not be his situation. But, honestly it’s not my business.

[@demetria7076]

I will be married 30 years next month if God allows us to live. I feel the same way. All the heartache that was endured and the wife never got a reward for it. But as a wife I understand your heart can be heartened to the point of no return. This marriage relationship is as complex as the sun.

[@CassandraChaPaul]

@ whewwwww!!!

[@melaniejohnson158]

Great point and great idea.

[@mrschosen]

ON POINT

[@benita001]

Thank you for giving us hope. People don’t understand why divorce happens until it knocks your door. I was so happy to see you both restored and together. You guys were just made for each other. ❤

[@lavondahawkins]

I love how the last 2 podcast show the importance of having real conversations.

[@pksensation]

Thank God for a father. She has her daddy to talk to. 😢

[@Prophetic_AJ]

I remember seeing her in early marriage- the first one, and I was relating to her In spirit like 🤦🏾‍♀️ not another sister in Christ! I could just feel that spirit taking on marriages that were not good for his daughters! Because I was going through it myself. I knew and recognized that struggle. It was a season of strengthening His chosen ones. He ministered to Isaiah 40:31 during that time of hurt and deception of my marriage. God bless you and your new union and thank you for always being vulnerable. May the Lord bless and keep you, sister in Christ! Prayer is going up for it all. God can restore!

[@cherylmosley7990]

Right around 1:35:35 💕 The entire interview was so enjoyable, but this segment, is relatable. Thankful for their transparency

[@taylorsmith2691]

This was good. I appreciated it all - the candor, laughter, ministry, and getting to know Bri's personality! I truly enjoyed it. As an upper 20's, divorced mom of 3 young kids who does hope to get remarried - this was inspiring and encouraged me. Thanks to all of you! Keep up the amazing work Laterras.

[@edgarsimpokolwe2132]

Too early for these confessions, such accolades should be awarded after a lifetime. But love Da Truth just the same, amazing human being.

[@deejulien572]

Thank you for your transparency and authenticity!!! ❤ This truly encouraged me. Redemption...dat part.🙌🏽🙏🏽

[@TishaCW]

OMG ! This is the most inspiring, motivating, and show God glory throughout this union. Love their story. Bri voice is truly anointed. Can't wait to hear new music from her. Emmanuel music is incredible. I never forget he said, " bri is his redemption." That's a powerful statement. May god continue to bless their union. ❤🙏🏻

[@jasmineedwards8019]

No disrespect, but could it be the age difference that made his approach so unique to her? Especially if she’d never dated a man older than her

[@Genie2386]

Good point! He has 17 yrs of life on her and 21 yrs of marriage prior to being with her. He seems more experienced in life overall

[@EmpressQueenB]

That is it

[@chameljackson4512]

Yep! That is exactly what I was thinking.

[@DanielleTRushin]

@@Genie2386omg 17 years????? 🤦🏽‍♀️

[@zazenglow349]

Wow

[@celestesosa01]

I'M SOOOOO HAPPY FOR BOTH OF THEM. MAY THEIR LOVE GROW AND GROW! LONG LIVE LOVE. ❤🎉

[@r.jasmine8299]

I pray they make it forever 🫶🏽 ♾️

[@ImKnotMyHair]

This bless me so much ❤❤❤❤ I too felt like Bri where I see all these successful relationships and felt like it wouldn’t happen to me. This gives me hope and so much encouragement. I thank them for their transparency and willingness to let us in on their union.

[@vonnab185]

❤❤so beautiful to speak of your purpose person they way they did. I love love❤❤ Blessings to these two!!

[@mariemuhammad7983]

Absolutely loved their journey and them as a couple. I love he proposed and they were married afterwards 30 days later. He said, what are we waiting for. 🎉🎉⚓️

[@aleseyaaa]

Beautiful story. ❤ Once Laterras said Da Truth it all came back to me! When I first started walking with Christ in college, Flame, Da T.r.u.t.h, Thi’sl and Bizzle were the main artist I listened to. It’s was clean and spreading a good message and not secular but similar to the rap they were playing on campus. Thank you sooo much Da T.r.u.t.h for helping me get through my college day enjoying good clean music. I’ve put a lot of people on to gospel rap by listening to it loud and proud! 🫶🏽🙏🏼 I love you all. Peace and blessings!

[@darcyraboteau6067]

"Sandpaper!" 🤗 Oh my God, such a beautiful and blessed couple and testimony! May the Lord continue to bless their marriage, family, and ministry for His glory!

[@dineomatsekoleng1932]

Thank you for the encouragement in healing from the past, being genuine and holding eachothers hands through the process of getting it right. Thank you so much..

[@ladyvkay]

I would love to know more about the age gap. She just turned 30 and I believe he is 47. I know age is "nothing but a number" for most, but in today's world - our generational gaps are so vast. How did this impact them? (sorry if my comment is early...commenting as I view)

[@nerissas8056]

Wow that’s a huge age gap. Good question

[@TheNOchick]

Nope you're on point I couldn't believe this when I heard it I said wait ain't I older than her and have known of da truth when I was child..so I had to find out about the age but immediately my spirit already knew..this is nothing but a guy who saw a young pretty Thang same way as the world there is no difference..it actually happens most in the church so yeah

[@Tanniab09]

That was my first thought. He is much older than she is, but only God knows.

[@evemcclure2]

Truth is old skool smooth holy playa.. he’s great with his words🙏🏾

[@monicalouis8333]

I said in a previous comment that for older people to want to get involved with a younger person is for them. They are actually robbing the younger person of the opportunity to grow with someone their age. They will be okay for now but it becomes very challenging when her energy stays up and his begins to fade . She will either slow down with him or he will try to keep up with her energy and vitality. With age gaps it will work as long as there is give and take. Years ago a guy was interested in me he was in his 20s I was 40ish. I told him to take that energy into finding someone your age that can go through life WITH you. I’ve already discovered what you haven’t been through yet I would be cheating you out of your journey. And he found his person! There are challenges with age gaps..

[@alicetheegreet]

I've never heard of either of these two until now. I'm going to look her up and give her songs a listen.

[@praizeyah]

You're going to be blessed. Go find her viral KZbin videos before the albums. You'll be blessed.

[@Yukia76]

[@alicetheegreet]

Thanks for the tip. @@praizeyah

[@sibiltaylor-thomas5956]

I really enjoyed this interview. I do remember Bri on social media singing that song and I followed her and I’m so happy that she found her person and she’s happy and whole again.

[@sheritasmith1111]

They are very transparent which I appreciate because this social media perfection in a person or a couple is just not always realistic for everybody.

[@casandrawilliams5141]

My heart is so full right now😢 this is what Gods love looks like. The Ending: Why has God purposed them? 🙌🏾 Thank you men of God for showing us that a man after Gods own heart do exist🤍

[@luvmemore220]

This is the best episode yet. This couple truly looks happy despite of the adversities that they’ve been through & the fruit shows!

[@saraw7050]

Their story is beautiful. Your letter is powerful. "Amen" to its fulfillment.

[@nw33965]

I thoroughly enjoyed this…. All that I discerned about her was that and more… exceeded. I can identify with much of what she expressed. There was so much in this episode to unpack and I appreciated being able to view this ! Continued blessings to them… loved it!❤️❤️📯

[@ISaidiCould]

“Because what are We Waiting For” That’s the Part!!!!!!

[@MsRhonday]

Bri, you are so beautiful, your Glow, the effervescence of you! your candid personality and your realness! Love you Bri! We all deserve the best as long as we can get out of our own way! Also, to be blessed with a partner with a high tolerance and patience a man who sees us! Growth is inevitable when your partner inspires, encourages & uplifts you Bri! We as women must get out of our own way. and allow our helpmeets to ascend on us.

[@Iamlonndanicole]

Laterras, if I ever doubted that God was prophetic in my life, I can’t doubt because of this episode. This episode hit closer to my life than I am comfortable with or at liberty to speak right now. Thank you Bri and DaTruth. ❤

[@DearFutureWifey]

Thank you. God has shown me that several times through the journey of Dear Future Wifey. This movement is for the glory of God and to restore the covenant of marriage.

[@nicholeellington4855]

Lord, this is encouraging. It gives permission to be hopeful. Thanks all and thank you Lord for arranging this in such way to bless others. I am others. 💜

[@SeannettaHarris]

When you are in an unhealthy relationship and lose yourself in the process, you become extremely masculine. When you have the right person, that is God ordain, you can rest in your feminine. 🙏🏽

I am divorced, and this was very encouraging! I believe the Lord will introduce me to the right person.

[@veronicahickman5634]

Thank you this was absolutely wonderful and very inspiring! May God continue to bless their union.

[@IssaColeworld3]

This episode has done something to me and I’m not really sure how to put it into words. I have a lot to process. Having recently divorced in 2024 after 22 years of marriage and hearing Bri say she don’t think a certain type of love was for her just sent me into tears. I need to flush that out in therapy session this week. Regardless of what anyone thinks or says, I see God using their story as a sign of redemption, mercy and healing. Some thing we just won’t understand until it hit our door steps and even then it’s not your story it’s there’s. When Emmanuel said he asked God to give him one more chance I felt that. I said I would never ever marry again if I had to get a divorce and I was only saying that as a defense mechanism, when in reality I love love and love everything that marriage represents. This episode is more confirmation that I just need to wait and trust that God will not withhold anything GOOD from those whom he loves. 🥹 Dear future husband, I will wait for YOU. 🥹🥹😭 Thank you for this podcast.

There story has giving me hope in relationship and marriage to God be the glory and bless them double for their honest....In Jesus Name Amen
