DeVon Franklin Opens Up About Divorce, Faith, and His New Audible Original Be True

by Jasawn Pryce February 10, 2026
written by Jasawn Pryce

There’s a moment in every hard season when you realize you can’t fake your way through it anymore. Healing doesn’t start with answers. It starts with honesty. That realization became the foundation of Be True: My Journey from Breakdown to Breakthrough, DeVon Franklin’s new Audible Original and one man stage show, created after his public divorce and a season that pushed him to explore his life, faith, and personal growth.

Rooted in storytelling and emotional honesty, Be True follows Franklin’s journey from a painful public chapter to a life shaped by authenticity and self-trust. The show offers an intimate look at what it means to sit with discomfort, confront your truth, and begin rebuilding from the inside out. Through candid moments, Franklin invites listeners to witness a man confronting loss, rediscovering his purpose, and learning to embrace his own humanity.

In our interview, Franklin opens up about vulnerability, lessons from marriage, and navigating life’s toughest moments. He shares insights, moments of clarity, and personal transformation, showing that growth does not follow a straight path and that facing yourself honestly is often the first step toward healing. Even in public scrutiny and personal heartbreak, it is possible to move forward with intention and courage.

For anyone feeling stuck in a difficult season, Be True is a comforting reminder that you are not alone. Franklin’s story encourages self-reflection, emotional honesty, and the courage to confront life as it is, not as we wish it would be. Watch our full conversation with DeVon Franklin and listen to Be True: My Journey from Breakdown to Breakthrough now on Audible to experience the moments that shaped this deeply personal journey.
