View StoryShe insisted there was no correlation between Morgan’s arrest and her surprise wedding to Luke Scornavacco.
Smith told Daily Beast, “Although it may seem like it correlates because of the timeline, I have no evidence to believe the incident had anything to do with the recent marriage announcement. I cannot speak on Morgan’s behalf, but I do pray the very best for him. Praying that this was just a slip up and that he will return to the good path that he was on prior.”
