Kirk Franklin and his wife, Tammy

Tammy recalls the moment her husband opened up about his addiction. "He sat me down, and he said, 'Babe, I want to talk to you about a problem that I've been struggling with.' He had such sincerity in his eyes—you could tell that this pained him. For me, my immediate reaction was to just support him in it."

Looking back, Tammy says she saw signs that Kirk's addiction had been affecting their sex life. "It started not to be special," she remembers. "You're not expecting to feel dirty with your husband."

"I see pornography as such a sexual act that I saw it as cheating," Kirk says. "I [was] bringing images of other women into my bedroom with my wife."
