The Drop the Mic star revealed that ultimately the uncertainty surrounding Justin’s health began to take its toll on the two. “It was months of me being a new wife trying to help him figure out what was wrong and what was going on. Now he’s perfectly healthy. But going through that and then trying to be like, ‘So where does our wedding fit into this?’ didn’t feel like the vibe at all.”
