Erica Campbell’s testimony about slashed tires has brought her husband’s past infidelity back into the discussion. Some readers are asking how much a wife is expected to forgive to keep a marriage together and whether a husband would be expected to do the same.
In the testimony, reported November 14, the Mary Mary singer told a church congregation that someone had slashed the couple’s tires before service. They drove another car, then their daughter called on FaceTime to say a woman was at their home and had been there before. Erica told her daughter to come to church and spoke about trusting God with their property.
She later wrote, “The lady was arrested !!!” Her account does not establish a new affair or connect her husband, Warryn Campbell, to the vandalism.
Warryn, a producer and pastor, said on Black Love in 2017 that he had an affair about 3 years into their marriage. He acknowledged being selfish and expecting Erica to change as her career demanded more of her time.
In a 2019 interview with Tamron Hall, Erica said she had considered leaving and asked herself, “Is he a mistake or did he make a mistake?” She chose reconciliation, and the couple sought guidance from their bishop and attended therapy.
Erica and Warryn renewed their vows on May 16, 2026, marking 25 years of marriage. She has described patience, listening and avoiding scorekeeping as part of the work.
Among those responding to her testimony, one commenter predicted that Warryn would leave if their roles were reversed. Another questioned why vandalism and an unwanted visitor were being treated as evidence of infidelity.
