Singer Ciara, who is dating Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson, has already said that she plans on staying celibate with her current boyfriend. She talked about her decision again, admitting that it is a challenge to not have sex, but it is “awesome.”

Ciara was on CBS This Morning Tuesday, where she talked about her new album Jackie and about rapper Future, her ex-fiance and the father of her son, Future Zahir. But she was also open about her relationship with Wilson. She explained that Christianity is what led to their decision.

“It was at church, and I think the cool thing is just being able to share our journey with some other people like us,” Ciara explained, notes the New York Post. “It’s a great challenge. I can definitely say that. But it’s awesome because we get to really challenge ourselves, get to know each other and really build a foundation.”

In July, Ciara opened up about their decision to stay celibate during an interview with Us Weekly.

“You go one day at a time, and keep [the romance] going with each other. It's alright,” she said of the challenge.

Wilson and Ciara were first seen together at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner.

Ciara released Jackie in May. The album features the single “Dance Like We’re Making Love.”
