Actor and former NFL player Devale Ellis shared a humorous fictional conversation with God on Instagram, celebrating his perfect match in wife Khadeen Ellis. The comedic sketch depicts a playful dialogue where Ellis thanks God for giving him someone who matches his energy.

In the Instagram post, Ellis crafts an imaginary conversation where he begins by asking God to send him someone who can match his energy. God responds with “Say less my boy,” to which Ellis expresses gratitude saying “You a real one. AMEN.” The humorous dialogue continues with God correcting him stating “I’M THEE REAL ONE!” Ellis then apologizes with “My fault God,” before his wife Khadeen jumps in with “Shuttup Devale before he send me somewhere else.” The fictional conversation concludes with God reassuring him, “You good Son. I’m from Brooklyn,” followed by Ellis ending the post with “THE END.”

Behind The Ellis Brand

Devale Ellis has established himself as a multi-faceted entertainer since transitioning from his NFL career. Ellis played as a wide receiver for the Detroit Lions before pursuing acting and content creation. He’s known for his role as Zac Taylor in Tyler Perry’s BET series “Sistas” and has appeared in other television productions.

Together with his wife Khadeen, Devale has built a strong social media presence and brand centered around their family life and relationship. The couple recently launched a new podcast called “Ellis Ever After,” following their previous successful podcast ventures.

Family-Focused Content Creator

The Ellis family has become known for their authentic representation of Black love and family life. In recent Instagram posts, Devale has shared glimpses into their busy lives, including his sons’ athletic pursuits. One post shows him working with his son Jackson on basketball recovery techniques, writing, “3 Sport Athlete! After Basketball workouts it’s a must that Jackson takes care of his body.”

Another recent post displays Devale’s dedication as a father, showing him coaching his sons in track: “Spent the last two weeks working on starts with Jackman and it paid dividends… I’m officially a track dad now.”

Ellis Ever After Podcast

The couple recently launched their new podcast venture, “Ellis Ever After Podcast,” which continues their tradition of sharing relationship insights and family dynamics. In a promotional post, they invited followers to “Run over to Patreon right now and Subscribe to @elliseverafterpodcast and see all the visuals and Aftershow with BTS footage.”

The podcast appears to tackle relationship topics with their signature humor and authenticity. In one recent episode promotion, they discussed “maintaining friendships in your 40s. Gaining new friends in you 40s & losing old friends.”

Talking Real Issues With Humor

Beyond family content, the Ellises don’t shy away from discussing serious topics. In a recent post, they stated: “This may be an unpopular opinion but Kay Kay & I love the fact that companies and people are becoming more overt with their racism. Let us know where you stand from the beginning so we know where to spend our time and money.”

This blend of humor, family content, and willingness to address societal issues has helped the Ellis family build a dedicated following across social media platforms.

Brooklyn Roots

The reference to Brooklyn in Devale’s fictional conversation with God highlights his New York roots, which remain an important part of his identity despite his national platform. The Ellis family frequently incorporates their Brooklyn background into their content and perspective.

The comedic post about God matching him with Khadeen encapsulates what their audience appreciates about the couple – their playful dynamic, authentic relationship, and ability to find humor in everyday life while celebrating their partnership.

Their content continues to resonate with audiences looking for positive representations of Black love, family life, and relationships that balance humor with thoughtful discussions on topics ranging from parenting to social issues.
