Ebony Magazine has revealed the three couples who cover the February 2014 issue of their annual ‘Black Love’ edition.
[FLASHBACK: T.I. and Tiny + Other Couples Cover Ebony Magazine’s 2013 ‘Black Love’ Edition (PHOTOS)]
David and Tamela Mann, aka Mr. Brown & Cora from Tyler Perry’s ‘Meet The Browns,’ are my favorite of the three couples who cover this year’s ‘Black Love’ issue and I feel they deserve the top spot in this post after maintaining a 25 year marriage.
The cute couple revealed how they maintain the passion in their relationship, stating:
Stay in love because when you’re in love, it covers a multitude of fault. Our relationship wasn’t based on good sex or having a lot of money. It was based on just straight friendship. That’s what has kept us.” –David Mann
“I pray and ask God to keep my heart and my eyes burning only for David Mann. I speak his name in my prayers, because I want the desire to stay, so when he touches me, I get chills.” –Tamela Mann
The other two couples covering the Ebony’s February 2014 ‘Black Love edition are Lala Vasquez and her hubby Carmelo Anthony and Mariah Carey and her hubby Nick Cannon.
Check out the covers below + check out what each couple has to say about keeping love alive…
LaLa Vasquez and Carmelo Anthony speak about their relationship and each reveal that they are in it for the long haul:
“There were people coming in and out of my life, and I didn’t really know whom to trust. She was one of the people who stood by my side through thick and thick. Even to this day, she’s always right there.” -Carmelo Anthony
“…We knew no matter what, we wanted each other. We needed [to be] in each other’s life, and that’s what’s been able to sustain this relationship all those years.” -La La Anthony
Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon spoke about their love and marriage and revealed their love has grown stronger over the years:
“It was early on when I found out how spiritual she was, and we had conversations about kids and how to live life. For her to share these values, it instantly let me know this is the person I’ve always wanted.” -Nick Cannon
“Having babies definitely strengthened our bond because all the love that you have for each other is manifested into these two incredible beings.” –Mariah Carey

Thanks for giving this beautiful couple the acknowledgement they deserve Michelle! All the other blogs have lala or Mariah! I think with 25 years they deserved a month all by themselves.
I think it´s hot that they´re showcasing what the brainchild of Ebony IS/WAS when Mr. Johnson first started. And, The Mann´s are my favorite, then Nick & Mariah because despite what folk like to say about Nick Cannon, he´s always been true to self and his beliefs.
Tamela and David are my favorite! Then Nick and Mariah! Nick has always been an upstanding young man!He and Mariah add to each others lives very well.I wanted to see the President and first lady,but was thankful not to see Bey and Jay.
Love Tamela and Mr. Brown..they seem like a beautifully paired couple! In regards to Nick and Mariah, they have grown on me. Initially, they seemed like an odd pair (Ms.Diva and Mr.Goofy) however, Mr.Cannon seems to have matured a great deal. You can look at him now and see that he has truly become a man. I’m happy for them! Lala and Carmelo..not so much. Something about these two just doesn’t sit well with me. Oh well..
I agree @BenHill! I was shocked to see LaLa and Carmelo.They seem forced to me……..
Who still reads essence anyway?
It’s Ebony not Essence…
lol!!!
Yes!!!! Im happy for the Mann Duo who is doing their thang!
Mr. and Mrs. Mann…hands down. His character of Mr. Brown..just butters my biscuits!
Love them and so glad they are on the cover!
Mr. and Mrs. Anthony spend tooooo much time apart for me.
The Cannons, I’m still trying to figuere out how that happened,lol
Wish them all well!!
Ciara and Future?
you betta stop it, lol!
I was hoping for TI and Tiny ! How bout Chuck Smith and Mynique !:))
The browns, I love u two, the rest look like they’re fakingit. Lol
Dana t.
Tamala Mann is so pretty I’m glad they were on the magazine I would rather see it and tiny over Lala and Carmelo. They have real chemistry to me. He seems to really like her on the show.
