Although David Snr. and his wife has enjoyed a successful marriage for over three decades, Tamela reportedly admitted that her husband's baby mama drama was initially a problem and almost brought their marriage to an end.

Over time, Tamela, who is an award-winning gospel singer, has experienced struggles with her weight, but presently, she is on the path to a healthier lifestyle.

According to her, she decided to lose weight and live healthier, not only for herself but also for her family. Barely five months after her announcement, Tamela revealed that the fitness program was changing her life while adding that she had lost 40 pounds at the time.
