Television personality Evelyn Lozada made the shocking decision to give up on sex before the marriage.
The Basketball Wives star explained that it was due to the negative effect of previous love affairs that made her turn her mind around.
According to her own words, Lozada has suffered for each of the heartbreaks in the past more than she realized at the time, and she even stated: “I’m done with premarital sex. I felt like… [in] those relationships, I lost a piece of me, every time I had sex [out of wedlock].”
She went on to say: “There are things that happen on Basketball Wives that obviously, I’m only in control of myself and how I respond to somebody saying certain things to me. I’m going to keep it all the way one hundred when I was in Miami I didn’t care. I did crazy stuff, I said crazy things, and I moved on with my life, and I didn’t have a conscience about it. But even with filming last season, you walk away, and I process things. I think about things, and I’m like ‘oh my gosh, maybe that wasn’t the right way to handle that situation.’ Or ‘What is my daughter going to think when she sees this.’ I always know that I need to do better.”
She added: “As a woman, a mother, somebody that’s trying to accomplish things at life, I know I have to do better with how I respond to certain situations. This season whenever we start filming, whenever that is, it’s supposed to be at the top of the year. It’s going to be the real true facts because me getting baptized and really wanting to do it for God in the right way, it’s going to be not easy. But I’m determined to pass the test.”
The 43-year-old mother of two chose to dedicate herself to celibacy after her recent announcement that she was baptized.
The reality TV star shared a picture of her baptismal ceremony at Freedom Church on social media, on which can be seen how she is standing in a pool with a peaceful smile on her face.
Those acts of atonement come after a very tough season of Basketball Wives, where Lozada is one of the central cast members.
In the previous episodes of the series, she was throwing drinks at people, fighting and shouting to her colleagues, and at one point she was even accused of using the n-word without being black.
Lozada has also stated that she wanted to show a better side of herself in the upcoming season of Basketball Wives.
She admitted to making crazy and reckless mistakes in her past, and maybe she could have reacted better on some of the occasions.
Ppl can NOT be playing with God like that.

The Basketball Wives star also expressed the desire to do everything right according to her newly founded faith, and even if it was very hard, she was determined to pass this test.
Shaunie O’Neal is very happy for Lozada, but Ogom “OG” Chijindu shared the shady tweet above.
