Relationship in the Past

In 2009, Sarah married professional basketballer Robert Henson. However, the two divorced in 2012, and Sarah claimed on her official website, sarahdhenson.com, that she feared for her safety:

Henson wrote, “I have agreed to end my four-year marriage after professional therapy and prayerful thought.” There are biblical reasons for this decision, and I have exhausted all other options, but after several infractions over the course of the marriage, and for my own and my children’s protection, I have made this difficult decision.
