Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson and R&B singer Ciara have one of the more enviable celebrity marriages and the pair have been a model couple throughout their relationship.
Wilson started dating Ciara in 2015. They were engaged and then married in 2016.
The power couple share two young children together, while Ciara has another child from a previous relationship. They really do seem like they have a very good thing going, especially during an age when relationships have been facing more challenges than ever.
Last year, Wilson spoke to Nischelle Turner of Entertainment Tonight, revealing the keys to his so-far strong marriage.
“You got to keep it sexy, you got to keep it romantic, you got to constantly put each other first, and we have our date nights every Friday,” Wilson said. “We try to do our thing and have our one-on-one time and make sure that we spend that quality time doing something fun together. That’s one key thing.”
“Communication is key. Just constantly communicating. We’re always talking, we’re always loving on each other, making sure we’re constantly asking how we’re doing, this and that. We always want to make sure our souls are well…We’re always focused on that.
“So communication, keeping it sexy, and I think the third part of it is, as a man we got to keep competing. We got to keep competing. I think that so many times as men, I think we get so settled down on, you know, ‘OK, we’re good. OK cool.’ And I think that you got to keep that energy throughout every day, throughout every week, and throughout because it’s worth it. It’s worth it and I like winning.”
Communication hasn’t been a strong suit for Wilson on the field this season, with the Broncos getting off to a 2-3 start in the AL. That was as clear as day when he ignored a wide-open receiver to throw into coverage last Thursday against the Indianapolis Colts en route to a 12-9 loss.
Things could be even dier by the time they play current AFC North leaders, the Baltimore Ravens, in early December. Barring a sharp turnaround, the odds should lean heavily in Baltimore’s favor and Maryland sportsbook promo codes will be welcome when that fixture rolls around.
Things aren’t as worrying at home, though, which is always good. In his interview last year, Wilson stressed the importance of being helpful around the house, especially with the children.
“It’s always knowing how you can help and always being able to take care of the kids if you need to,” he noted. “It may be in those moments, in those clutch moments, where you’re like, ‘She needs an open ear.’ But also too, the sticky notes you may leave or just the subtle things you may text or a video or whatever it may be, those subtle surprises throughout the day.”
He also admitted that losing his wife is one of his biggest fears, which is why he wants to get the most out of every moment they have together.
“Somebody asked me the other day, ‘What’s your greatest fear?’ I said, ‘Losing her because she means everything to me,'” he added. “It’s one of those things that [in] life somebody’s not going to be here, this or that. And I think the reality is, is that I cherish every day with her because the days are numbered. We don’t know the number, but the days are numbered, and I want to maximize each number. I want to maximize each moment and she’s worth maximizing each moment, each day.”
The veteran QB was named Walter Payton Man NFL Man of the Year back in 2020, an accolade well deserved, and said he teared up when he heard the news.
“It brought tears to my eyes,” he recalled. “We were in Mexico and I just started to think about my dad and just how much he taught me, my mom and how much they were there [for me]. My dad is no longer living and my dad always loved Walter Payton. Brings a tear to my eye now thinking about it,” he expresses. “To be able to win the award and be honored with it, and just to be able to go through that process, was really special. But what I really thought about was all of the people along the way [that helped me].”
“I think about all of the people that have been along the journey. I think about my wife, Ciara, she has been amazing. She inspires me to do better and to do more. She is relentless, she is an independent woman.”
