Back in 2020, news broke that prominent evangelical Liberty University president Jerry Falwell Jr. and his wife Becki were involved in a sex scandal. A former pool attendant at a Miami hotel had come forward with a story about his seven-year sexual relationship with Becki. And he claimed that Jerry would sometimes watch (and film) them have sex.
Now, the scandalous story is the subject of a new Hulu documentary called God Forbid: The Sex Scandal That Brought Down a Dynasty, which lays out the scandal and features interviews with Granda.
Becki isn’t interviewed in the documentary (and neither is Jerry). But she has spoken out about the scandal and her thoughts on the situation. Here’s what she’s said about the whole thing, and what happened to her after the story broke.
Becki Falwell is the wife of former evangelical Liberty University president Jerry Falwell Jr., and daughter-in-law of the late televangelist and Christian leader Jerry Falwell Sr.
Jerry Jr. and Becki met in 1987, when she was 13 years old. Jerry was friends with Becki’s older sister, and the two went on their first date when he was 23, and she was an 18-year-old college freshman, according to Vanity Fair. They fell in love and she dropped out of Liberty to waitress. The two later got married after Jerry graduated from the University of Virginia’s law school.
While she was a stay-at-home mom for two decades, Becki also got involved in other conservative projects. She previously served on the advisory board of Women for Trump, and spoke with Jerry at the Conservative Political Action Conference in 2019.
Jerry and Becki have three children together: Jerry Falwell III (Trey), Caroline Grace, and Charles Wesley. They have also welcomed a few grandchildren into the Falwell family, too.
Becki met Granda when he was a 20-year-old pool attendant at a hotel in Miami in 2012. The two began a sexual relationship that lasted several years, and in 2020, Granda went public with the story. He also claimed that Becki’s husband (and then-president of Liberty University) would watch them have sex, and provided Reuters with emails and texts that showed the sexual nature of the relationship. Becki and Jerry have both denied this.
Granda appears in the Hulu documentary to talk about the affair, and he also has a new book out about the scandal, Off the Deep End: Jerry and Becki Falwell and the Collapse of an Evangelical Dynasty.
FYI, here’s the Amazon description for Granda’s new book: “Jerry Falwell Jr. is a prominent figure in the evangelical world whose support for presidential candidate Donald J. Trump helped secure Trump’s Republican nomination in 2016. He captured headlines when it was revealed that he and his wife Becki had participated in a years-long bizarre sexual relationship with a pool attendant they met at the Fountainbleu Hotel in Miami Beach.” It then continues, saying that Granda “is now ready to share the story of his years on an ‘only in America’ rollercoaster ride through the monied corridors of power and profound hypocrisy.”
