Black Twitter is still dragging retired NFL player Channing Crowder for saying Ciara Wilson only married “square” Russell Wilson for his money.
The semiretired 36-year-old singer shares two children with Russell, 33, who recently transferred from Seattle to the Denver Broncos.
They began dating in 2015 and got engaged less than a year later. The pop singer and the former Seattle Seahawks quarterback tied the knot on July 6, 2016 at Peckforton Castle in Cheshire, England.
Crowder, is among the observers who don’t believe that Ciara and Russell’s marriage is so picture perfect.
During an episode of his online series, The Pivot Podcast, Crowder referred to Russell as a “square,” and said Ciara only married him for his money.
Crowder says women like Ciara – who are into bad boys – don’t usually switch up.
“If Russell ain’t have that bread, Ciara ain’t gon’ be with him,” Crowder said. “Russell’s square. Russell’s square. Ciara had a — she has a good situation — but you’re not gonna leave Future and get with Russell Wilson. You don’t leave Future and get with Russell Wilson… Everybody has a type.”
In response, Russell quoted scripture on social media.
“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.”
Galatians 5:22-23 NIV.”
Black Twitter dragged Crowder, but others noted that Ciara would not have married Russell if he wasn’t a rich NFL quarterback.
Horrible opinion about singer Ciara… But just remember you wouldn't be married to the woman you married if you wasn't in the NFL little ??. ?

People are mad at you because you show that marriages can be happy and healthy. They’re convicted of their sin of meaningless sex, and treating their partners badly. Frankly, it hurts them to see what they don’t have. God bless you Russell. Us fans are here fighting for you.

Nailed it!! The non-committal, narcisstic ones tend to hate on Russell. They want him to also be a deceptive dude sneaking & snaking around on the women. He's what they cannot be: a good man/Husband & Father. Therefore, the envy turns to hate + name calling. Love is none of that.

@OfficialCrowder is an out of style athlete with nothing going on. He is a black hearted man that needs attention. Who wakes up with Russell & Ciara on their minds? He is like a pair of BK trying to make a come back. Nobody knows him but his Mama & Google.

Channing Crowder has daughters and he's making fun of Ciara for choosing to be with Russell Wilson instead of future. A pure dumb ass nigga

All Russell Wilson do is play ball, be a good husband to Ciara, be a father to his kids, and somehow; he’s got these goofy dudes on the internet with his name in his mouth every other day.
Channing Crowder sounds like he wants to be in a relationship with Future.

Everybody is killing Channing Crowder for calling Russell a square.. but the funny thing is y’all keep making it about him treating her well and taking care of his family, that’s not why ppl call him a square , we were calling Russ a cornball before Ciara ?
