During a July 2016 chat with Billboard, Fantasia Barrino reflected on Kendall Taylor reeling her in with a touching act as she prepared to go on tour. "I just knew [he was the one]. I was getting ready to go on the road, and he got on his knees and said, 'Can I pray for you? I just want to cover for you down the road.' In the time I'd been fasting from relationships, I asked God for someone to pray for me — someone that could cover me and my kids and be the man of the house. That's when I knew," Barrino shared with the outlet.
In October 2019, Barrino reiterated this point in an interview with Angela Yee's Lip Service, sharing how shocked she was at the moment. "He kneeled down and started praying. And I couldn't even get caught up in the prayer, 'cause I was like, 'Is this real?'" Barrino told the hosts. Their faith also translated to them abstaining from sex before the wedding, another positive point that has seemingly contributed to the success of their marriage.
