Deanna Favre Talks of Her Faith amid husband Brett’s Sex Texting Scandal

Written by Felicia Howard, Christian Post | Monday, October 25, 2010

In her new book, Favre talks openly about the struggles in her marriage to Brett that involved his drug and alcohol usage. She also discusses her struggle with breast cancer after she was diagnosed in 2004

“I’m a woman of faith,” Deanna Favre said in her interview on ABC’s Good Morning America. After the NFL launched an investigation into alleged inappropriate behavior by her husband, Brett Favre, she said her faith will help get her through this.

A New York Times bestselling author and activist, Deanna Favre and co-author Pastor Shane Stanford appeared on the show last Thursday to promote their new book, The CURE for the Chronic Life. They both share experiences with a life-threatening illness. They have combined their strengths, faith, and hardships to write a book that inspires readers to rise above despair and conquer the joys of a great life.

And with recent headlines of her husband’s alleged sexting, she has one more disparity to add to her list.

National Football League Minnesota Vikings’ quarterback Brett Favre met with NFL security personnel earlier last week over the alleged inappropriate voicemails and photos he sent to former New York Jets gameday host Jenn Sterger when he played for the team in 2008.

Responding to the scandal, Deanna stressed, “Faith has gotten me through many difficult struggles. It will get me through this one. I’m handling this through faith…” She founded the Deanna Favre Hope Foundation to raise money and awareness for women around the country.
