In July 2016, Ciara and Russell Wilson got married at the stunning Peckforton Castle in Cheshire. Recently, the couple enjoyed a romantic meal in West Hollywood, still basking in the joy of being newlyweds. For their date at Catch LA, Ciara, 32, embraced her natural beauty by going makeup-free and looked gorgeous in a form-fitting floral minidress that accentuated her curves.
Ciara and her husband, Russell Wilson, were spotted enjoying a meal together at Catch LA in West Hollywood. The singer looked stunning in a dress that had a cinched waist and a high neckline, paired with thigh-high black suede boots. She completed her outfit with glossy black hair flowing down her back and a black leather clutch in hand, while linking arms with her Seattle Seahawks player husband. Russell kept it casual in a white hoodie under a navy varsity jacket, along with faded jeans, white sneakers, and a baseball cap.
Ciara, 32, flaunted her natural beauty by going makeup-free during her recent outing with her husband. This public appearance followed a social media backlash she faced after sharing a pastor’s message that seemed to critique single women. In the video post of pastor John Gray’s sermon, the quote “Too many women want to be married but you’re walking in the spirit of ‘girlfriend'” was featured. Alongside the video, Ciara urged women to ‘#LevelUp. Don’t Settle’. The post sparked controversy on Twitter, with many users accusing the singer of shaming single women.
Accentuating her figure: The singer highlighted her curves in a tight floral minidress.
One social media user commented on society’s pressure on women to conform to a certain standard for men, referencing Ciara’s video. They pointed out the disparity in expectations between men and women.
Another user expressed concern over the toxic messages women receive about their value being tied to a man’s desire for them and the importance of marriage. They emphasized that a woman’s worth does not depend on a man’s approval.
In Ciara’s shared video, Pastor Gray discusses the true meaning of being a wife, emphasizing that it is not just about a ring or a title but about one’s character. He highlights that being a wife is not just about getting married but embodying the qualities of a true partner.
These boots were perfect for strutting: To complete her ensemble, she paired a dress that hugged her waist and had a stylish high neckline with some sleek thigh-high black suede boots.
Despite facing criticism, a significant number of users on Twitter came forward to support the celebrity.
The singer later took to Instagram to address the controversy surrounding her post, admitting, “I used to be that girl who yearned for a specific kind of love but often made the wrong choices. There was a point when I hit rock bottom.
“I was a single mother, feeling lost and then it hit me – the love I sought after was the same love that God showers on me, the kind of love He wants me to have and the kind of person He intends for me to be as a mother and a woman.
“That’s when I understood that whether I was married or not, what I truly needed was to love myself. #LevelUp.”
Decked out in her fabulous raven hair styled in a sleek middle part, she strutted her stuff while confidently holding a chic black leather clutch in one hand. Walking arm in arm with Seattle Seahawks player Russell, she definitely made a statement.
