Amid accusations of domestic violence and child neglect, Benjamin
Bebe Winans,46, has weathered the media firestorm started by Debra
Winans, his ex-wife. What should have had career-shattering
implications, seems to have had precisely the opposite effect. Not only
was BeBe exonerated and cleared of all charges, but the album he
recorded with sister CeCe, after a 15 year hiatus, kicked off the new
year at #1 on Billboard's Gospel Albums chart. Looks like 2010 is off to
a much better start.
On February 13, 2009, the Grammy Award winning singer was
accused of allegedly shoving his ex-wife to the ground during an
argument. Court filings stated that the alleged altercation was based
on custody issues dealing with their two children. Winans was
arrested on March 11, 2009 on a misdemeanor domestic assault
charge and was briefly held at the Davidson County jail before posting
$1000 bond.
Now that this whole ordeal is behind him, Bebe Winans said 2009 was
"a trying year, beginning with the death of my father. This allegation has
affected not just me, but also the entire Winans family." He went on to
say, "I chose to stay quiet because I knew the truth."
