In the video that Murrillo shared, Kelly sang verses about overcoming times of fear and loneliness by leaning on God.

“When I’m all alone and fear is all I see / Sittin’ in the silence with these insecurities / And then you remind me, you’re holdin’ me tight / And you love me completely, you’re always by my side,” Kelly sang.

Kelly and Murillo began dating in 2016 before announcing their engagement a year later. The pair tied the knot in May 2018.

She continued, “I think I’ve learned a lot about myself too, and what I need to work on. It has forced me to look inward, so it’s overall just growth.”
