Ciara had no qualms about abstaining from sex with Russell Wilson. During an interview with Cosmopolitan South Africa, Ciara complimented Wilson for putting them on the path to celibacy. “I have to give credit to my husband for sharing those views,” she said (Via E! News). “It’s awesome how it all worked out.”
She went on to add, “Guys see us from an exterior point of view — that’s something I learned along the way as a woman … You shouldn’t feel like you have to give your body away to get someone to like you.”

While appearing on “The Meredith Vieira Show,” Ciara shared more about their decision to stay celibate until marriage. After Vieira noted how ironic it was that Ciara and Wilson’s vacation photos were full of sex appeal, given their celibacy pledge, Ciara revealed how their decision came about. “You know, it was really a teamwork kind of … effort,” said Ciara. “And I have to say, it was also awesome because he was also a leader in the process of it.” Though their faith influenced their decision and strengthened their resolve, though, Ciara admitted that it was hard to stick to their vow.
