Griner’s Wife Recently Reflected On Her Homecoming After 10-Month Detention In Russia
As The Shade Room previously reported, Cherelle Griner recently spoke out regarding her wife’s release from being detained in Russia. And shared how difficult those ten months apart had been for her.
I was hopeless a lot of days. You try and stay grounded, but I’m human. Still, I would never completely give up hope on my wife’s life.
She also shared more about the moment she and her wife locked eyes with one another for the first time in ten months.
We were both just instantly crying. I was standing there full of tears and someone ran over and handed me a handkerchief. I definitely needed it.
When the two were finally able to embrace one another, Griner explained that she couldn’t stop touching her wife’s face.
I was like, ‘Is this really you?’ It did not feel real. It was chilling — and warm. I was just holding on tight. I couldn’t let her go.
She also shared more about the couple’s journey forward.
It’s unfortunate that those 10 months happened without us being able to be side-by-side. But it happened, and we’re embracing the fact that we now get to learn each other’s story through that time. So we’re taking it slow. We are not doing it all at once. But we are honoring the fact that I went through something that was really hard and difficult without BG’s awareness, and vice versa. Day by day, we’re just feeding a little bit to the soul and understanding each other’s journey so we can actually start walking together.
