It seems like forever since Jennifer Hudson and her fiancé, wrestler David Otunga, got engaged in 2008. And since then, rumors have flown that the pair had split and that they would never walk down the aisle. And though the couple has remained relatively mum about their hindered nuptials, a new report claims that Hudson allegedly put a hold on her marriage because she got cold feet.
According to RadarOnline, sources claim that the tragedies of Hudson’s personal life began to take a toll on her romance with Otunga, and she was unsure if she wanted to marry him.
“Jennifer started feeling like it just wasn’t right,” the source said. “So many bad things have happened since they got engaged in 2008 that have prevented them from finally getting married, and she was worried that she was just trying too hard to make something happen that wasn’t meant to be.”
As many know, one of those bad things was the murder of Hudson’s mother, brother and nephew at the hands of her sister’s jealous ex, William Balfour.
The source claims that Hudson had a breaking point around the time of Balfour’s murder trial, in which he was found guilty, and she even returned her engagement ring to Otunga.
“Jennifer and David quietly called off the wedding a few months ago and she even returned her ring to him,” the source explained. “She was extremely stressed out and processing a lot of emotions about the murder of her family after the trial ended, and she just cracked.”
However, after taking some time apart to do some soul searching, Hudson finally came to the conclusion that she wanted to make things work with Otunga and marry him.
“After things settled down, she realized that he was her rock and that she wanted to spend her life with him and keep building their family together. She is more sure than ever now that she is ready to get married.”
Hudson and Otunga are now in “wedding planning mode,” but are keeping quiet about the ceremony.
Well, it’s good that Hudson and Otunga are finally planning to tie the knot, but unlike them, the couples below just couldn’t get over their cold feet and decided to call it quits. Check them out below. – nicholas robinson
