Why Bachelor Alum Madi Prewett Says She Loves Being a “Submissive Wife” to Grant Troutt

Madi Prewett is sharing insight into her marriage with Grant Troutt. 

The Bachelor alum, who competed on Peter Weber’s season of the dating reality show, recently admitted she loves being in a “submissive” relationship with her husband. 

“Being a submissive wife, it was a challenge for me at first,” Madi explained during the Dec. 1 episode of the Stay True podcast, “but now it’s my favorite thing, I love talking about submission.”

This isn’t the first time Madi has discussed coming around to being submissive to her husband with whom she shares daughter Hosanna, 10 months. 

“As a wife, I’m called to submit, I’m called to respect, I’m called to honor,” Madi explained during a June 2024 episode of her podcast. “I’m called to be committed and keep our marriage bed pure.”

She reasoned, “I’m called to make him, other than God, my greatest priority.” 

Indeed, Madi reflected on how her past feminist beliefs were “rebelling against God’s original design.”

“When I submitted to my husband, I found the security I was craving,” Madi explained. “It wasn’t in my nagging, it wasn’t in my controlling, it wasn’t in my feminist approach that I got security, it was in the submission.”

However, Madi admitted that it is still “hard” to follow the standard she has set for herself. 

“There are moments where they are just dead wrong,” she added. “There are moments where maybe they don’t deserve the respect and that’s just the reality of life in general. We’re imperfect, they’re imperfect.”
