Christian influencer and former reality TV star Sadie Robertson is opening up about her and her husband’s decision to forego a physical relationship before getting married. During a new episode of her “WHOA That’s Good” podcast, the former “Duck Dynasty” star said that she and her husband, Christian Huff, decided together to live differently than they had in the past to honor God.
Robertson, 29, said that when she first got together with her husband, they decided together to pursue purity. She explained that they also got really candid with each other about what physical boundaries they were setting.
“Honestly, we kind of went a different route than just having like…if you’re talking about physical boundaries, which we can talk about other boundaries too,” she said. “I guess there’s a lot of different boundaries, but physically speaking, we didn’t say like we’re not going to do this, this and this, and we are going to do this, this and this. Like, here’s the boundary.”
Sadie Robertson Wanted To Follow ‘God’s Plan’
According to Robertson, it was important to clarify what they were doing and why because if they didn’t, she felt it would be easy for them to go right up to the boundary line before crossing it.
Robertson, a mother of three, said that she and Huff were adamant about following “God’s plan” for their lives. “God’s plan is purity and God’s plan is one-man and one-woman for marriage,” she said. “And I will say, that wasn’t what our past looked like. But we had an opportunity when we came together for our future to look different than people we dated in the past.”
Robertson went on to say that she and Huff both wanted the best for each other and wanted to follow God’s will.
“We wanted to pursue that. And so together we made a decision, ‘Hey, we’re going to do that.’ And that looks like purity and that looks like this,” she preached.
Sadie Robertson Got Engaged To Huff In 2019
Robertson and Huff got engaged in 2019 on her family’s farm in Louisiana. Huff popped the big question after nine months of dating, and according to Robertson, it was a total surprise. “I did not know it was coming. It was the most perfect thing ever,” she said, per PEOPLE.
Prior to the engagement, Robertson and Huff were planning a joint birthday bash with their closest family and friends. According to Robertson, after Huff got down on one knee, it made their night together that much better.
“From that moment, it was just like the most special engagement ever. He had letters from all of my family and all of his family and my Bronco waiting on me. And so when I got in the car, there were all these letters everywhere and our favorite song was on,” she said.
Another Christian Influencer Opened Up About Pursuing Purity After Living A ‘Double Life’
According to a previous report from The Blast, Madison Prewett, known for her Christian-themed podcast and season of “The Bachelor,” also opened up about pursuing purity after living a “double life.”
She previously told “Full House” star Candace Cameron Bure that she had become addicted to pornography at a young age by a friend and that it eventually consumed her. “And on the outside, it looked like everything was fine. But behind closed doors I was living this double life of living in constant secret sexual sin and not confessing it to anybody,” she said.
The reality star said that it wasn’t until college that she opened up about her struggles with someone else and was able to get “free” from it.
Prewett Is Learning To Not Be So Hard On Herself
Prewett went on to say that she learned after that moment that she had to not only be honest with herself, but with God.
“That was really what that journey was like for me,” she said. “Even to this day, having moments of shame popping back up, immediately just confess it and get it into the light and share it with a friend.”
