Kevin Durant Reveals He Did Not Love Ex-Fiancee Monica Wright the 'Right Way'

Kevin Durant is opening up about the reason for his engagement to fellow professional basketball player Monica Wright ending.

Durant, the 26-year-old Oklahoma City Thunder forward, made headlines in 2013 for being engaged to fellow Christian Wright, the 26-year-old who won the 2013 WNBA Championship with the Minnesota Lynx. After a great deal of speculation, Durant spoke to GQ magazine about the demise of his relationship.

"I had a fiancée, but … I really didn't know how to, like, love her, you know what I'm saying? We just went our separate ways," Durant told the publication. "We was just hanging out, chilling. And I felt the energy."

He went on to describe his feelings of feeling the need to be engaged to Wright. However, he admitted to not doing things the right way.

"I was like. … We're engaged right now? We're about to get married," Durant recalled questioning. "So I was just like, cool! I love this girl. But I didn't love her the right way."

Last year, Wright spoke to Risen magazine about God helping her through the process of breaking up with Durant, who is also a Christian athlete.

"Yeah, in my last relationship, I had to make a decision about compromising myself as a woman. I had to make a decision to leave a relationship, which a lot of people thought I was crazy to leave," Wright told Risen magazine. "There was a lot of criticism over it. But I think God had my back in it. Because I hold to what I know to be true, that is what God will reward instead of what people on the earth think is a good catch."

While she never publicly detailed the cause of her issues in the relationship with Durant, a YouTube video that was posted by user Mike Peden shows Wright speaking about her breakup at the WNBA's Minnesota Lynx Faith and Family Night.

"I was engaged last year and it kind of changed that relationship big time because I was going in a direction that unfortunately a lot of people aren't willing to sacrifice their lifestyle for," she revealed in the YouTube video
