However, let s take a look at what led to their separation in detail.
Why did Kevin Durant and Monica Wright separate?
After separating, a year after getting engaged, Kevin Durant and his ex-fiance Monica Wright decided to part ways. Wright mentioned Kevin s unchanged lifestyle after being engaged as well as her Christian faith.I was engaged last year and it kind of changed that relationship big time because I was going in a direction that unfortunately a lot of people aren t willing to sacrifice their lifestyle for. I had to decide to compromise myself as a woman.she said.
On the other hand, Kevin held himself responsible for it and talked about not loving her the right way.I had a fianc e, but I didn t know how to, like, love her, you know what I m saying? We just went our separate ways.he said. The two however had their reasons for separation but the real reason was, however, unsure.
As of today, the two are happy and have moved on, and focusing on their own lives. Kevin Durant is currently playing for the Pheonix Suns and advanced to the next round in the playoffs. Monica Wright on the other hand is currently hired as the General Manager for the WNBA team, Pheonix Mercury.
