He began the story by explaining what it takes to get a prenup drawn up and how many times he had to ask his ex-fiance, Imani Showalter, to sign it.<\/p>\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/mPOdN1F8UCg\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe planned to get married in Houston. So, newsflash for all 530 of y\u2019all here. In order for a prenup to get drawn up, both the husband the wife, the bride and the groom have to agree on the prenup before it can even get written up. I take care of a lot of people. I\u2019m never letting one woman control of all the hard work I\u2019ve done in my life. None of these muhf*ckas was in the gym with me. So I told myself whoever I\u2019m married to, they signing a prenup off top. It\u2019s not even a second guess.<\/p>\n<p>So we get the prenup back at least 3-4 months before the wedding. This is all true y\u2019all. I give it to her. When I give it to her, she shouldn\u2019t be surprised by it because me and her sat down and agreed upon the prenup. A month passed, two months before the wedding, I\u2019m like we need to get that prenup signed, so when we get down there to Houston, we ain\u2019t gotta worry about it. I tell her that like two or three times.<\/p>\n<p>But Jackson noticed a second twist when he wanted his childhood pastor to officiate the wedding, but his fiancee wanted another pastor at the altar, although he was just a recommendation from a friend and someone she never actually met. But eventually, he obliged.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-484 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/untamenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/stephenjackson.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/untamenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/stephenjackson.png 600w, https:\/\/untamenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/stephenjackson-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/untamenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/stephenjackson-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/untamenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/stephenjackson-75x75.png 75w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI spent about $400,000 on the wedding, y\u2019all. Pastor don\u2019t matter to me. I just want to marry you. I don\u2019t even give a damn. Now, we at two weeks before the wedding. I\u2019m like, \u2018Look bruh why I got to keep asking you about this prenup. It ain\u2019t like you don\u2019t know what\u2019s on it. What motives?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jackson says that even down to the day of the wedding, the prenup still being signed was all he could think of, and it all came to a head when the preacher, that his fiance wanted so badly, spoke to him hours before the big event.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe in the backroom and the preacher come in with his assistant and my nanny come in with a spooked look on her face. She pulls me to the side and she like, \u2018She still ain\u2019t signed it.\u2019 So, I said, \u2018I ain\u2019t getting married then.\u2019 Steph was like, \u2018She ain\u2019t sign the prenup, what we even here for?\u2019<\/p>\n<p>The preacher steps up, remember the preacher? He says, \u2018Hold on, now I know you love this girl. Don\u2019t make a drastic decision. I think you should just let God handle it.\u2019 I said, \u2018Huh?\u2019 He said, \u2018As the pastor, I don\u2019t believe in prenups.\u2019 Now I know why she was fighting for you. You don\u2019t believe in prenups. Damn what you believe in. I put everything in God\u2019s hands, and God is telling me to put the pen in her hand and make her sign this gotdamn prenup. That\u2019s what God tellin me. So God tellin you and me two different things.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Randomly, Jackson mentions that Bobby Valentino was in the building to sing at the wedding before explaining how he felt after making the tough choice not to get married.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is when she showed her true colors. So the wedding off. Wedding\u2019s off. We not doing it. We getting undressed. When we first get back to the room, I break down crying. Honest to God\u2019s truth, I was hurt. I wanted to marry her, bruh. I break down crying for like twenty-thirty minutes. I\u2019m hard down crying.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Eventually, Jackson decides to talk to her once the wedding is called off, but Showalter tried to make things right. Jackson was educated enough by his inner circle that signing a contract under duress doesn\u2019t count, so he knew the jig was up.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSoon as I get in the room, she hard down crying. \u2018I\u2019ll sign it. I\u2019ll sign it.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cListen, I was born at night but not last night. Anytime anybody signs anything where they\u2019re crying, under any type of stress, that shit can get thrown out. I was already told that by my folks, so I was already on game. So the sh*t she tried, thinking I was going to buckle so it could get thrown out. No sweetheart. You chose your decision. Claim under distress that\u2019s what it\u2019s called. Soon as we get to downstairs, Stephon Marbury was in the DJ booth. Guess what the first song they played. I\u2019ll give y\u2019all a second.\u201d\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Of course, it was Kanye West\u2019s \u201cGold Digger.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But the best part of the story is how he got revenge that very same night, and it just so happened to involve one of her friends.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis the sickest part of the whole thing. After we had partied in the hotel, me and partners was getting ready to go out. Two of her main squeezes that was with her, was with us that night. And I\u2019ma keep it funky, I downed one of \u2018em. Ya feel me. But that\u2019s her friends though. Yeah I did it. Shole did. If ima trick $300,000-$400,000 Ima get some get back. They couldn\u2019t wait.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Listen to Jackson\u2019s entire sermon below:<\/p>\n<p><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/mPOdN1F8UCg\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Stephen Jackson Left Fianc\u00e9 At Alter Because She Would Not Sign Prenup Retired NBA star Stephen Jackson recently recounted when he would not marry his fianc\u00e9e, Imani Showalter, after she refused to sign a pre-nuptial agreement.
