Ciara struggling to abstain from sex with Christian boyfriend

Ciara won't be using her Goodies on sports star boyfriend Russell Wilson over the Valentine's Day weekend (13-14Feb16), because she's still committed to abstain from sex until the couple is married.

The Christian quarterback, who plays for the Seattle Seahawks, let the single mum know he wasn't a fan of sex before marriage when they first hooked up, and Ciara has respected that from day one - even though it's difficult not to get intimate with the stud at times.

"It's going pretty good, we're hanging in there," the 30-year-old told Cosmopolitan magazine of the pair's no-sex rule.

"I'm not gonna lie. I'm human, so it is not easy, especially when I look at him and I think he is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen, that I've ever laid my eyes on, to be honest."

Ciara reveals when she feels a little lusty, she has to leave the room - or just stop looking at the 27-year-old footballer.

"I'm like, 'Look the other way! Look the other way!" she explained.

Wilson went public with the couple's no-sex-before-marriage agreement last year (Apr15) during an interview about his faith.

"She completely agreed," Russell told Pastor Miles McPherson at California's Rock Church in July (15). "(We were like), 'Can we love each other without that?' If you can love somebody without that, then you can really love somebody."

And he confessed he was struggling to keep his hands off his sexy girlfriend, admitting, "I ain't gonna lie, I need ya'll to pray for us, because I know you have seen her on the screen now. If there's a 10, she's a 15. Pray for me, keep my mind clear, keep my heart clear."

Meanwhile, Ciara has filed legal papers against rapper Future, the father of her 21-month-son, for libel and slander after he criticised her parenting skills on Twitter.

The singer is suing her ex-fiance for $15 million (GBP10.4 million).
