About this listen

Named as Episode 4 Extended in the episode.

What happens when a marriage is just a cover? In this episode of If I Told You, we dive into the hidden world of lavender marriages—unions designed to mask identity, protect status, and uphold reputations at the cost of truth and intimacy. These aren’t just stories from Hollywood’s golden age or whispered rumors in religious circles—they’re real, modern-day agreements that often leave one partner confused, spiritually wounded, and emotionally abandoned. We explore how secrecy, sexual grooming, and spiritual manipulation collide in relationships where the truth was never part of the vows. This is not just about sexuality—it’s about deception, control, and the deep psychological toll of living inside a lie. You won’t hear this in church. But if I told you… would you listen?
