'Bachelor' alum Madi Prewett says being 'a submissive wife' is her 'favorite thing'
“The Bachelor” runner up Madi Prewett found a husband and is happy to let him take the lead.
On her “Stay True” podcast, Prewett, the runner up on season 24, shared her thoughts while speaking with her husband, Grant Troutt, and guest Bryce Crawford, who recently became engaged to Maddy Dodd.
Prewett said it was a “challenge” at first to be a “submissive wife,” but she’s really come around to the idea.
“Now, it’s, like, my favorite thing. I love talking about submission,” she said.
Prewett, who competed for the heart of airline pilot Peter Weber on “The Bachelor” in 2020, has spoken about the concept of being submissive in her marriage before.
“As a wife, I’m called to submit, I’m called to respect, I’m called to honor,” she said during a 2024 episode of her podcast.
She continued, “I'm called to love, I’m called to be committed and to keep our marriage bed pure, and to make him, other than God, my greatest priority.”
Prewett married Troutt in 2022 after a three-month engagement. They welcomed a daughter, Hosanna, in January this year.
“We had a three-month engagement. The world thought we were crazy. Maybe we were a little bit, but also we were just so excited to get married,” she said.
For soon to be wed couples, Prewett advised, “Fight to unite and not to be right. That was one of the hardest things for me when we first got married."
She continued, “I just wanted to be right all the time, and it was my way or the highway. I learned a lot through prayer and humbling myself before God. He was, like, ‘Actually, you got a lot of junk [that you need] to sort through.’ It was very sanctifying.”
