Ciara told “Entertainment Tonight” that her marriage has turned out like she dreamed it long ago.

Wilson echoed Ciara’s sentiments.

“Every day I come home from work, and it’s late at night, it’s after film and practice and all that, and me and Ciara are together, and we just smile from ear-to-ear in the kitchen because we realize that our family is a beautiful blended family but it’s also, you know, our family. It’s us.”

• A third person said “I think Russell said the prayer. ”
