Nickiesha Palmer, the estranged wife of Apostle David Palmer, has alleged that the defining rupture in the relationship began when fellow church leader, Apostle Kerriann Johnson allegedly interfered with his wedding ring.

According to Nickiesha, 36, the alleged episode unfolded while David, 31, was ministering at Johnson’s His Majesty’s Sanctuary Deliverance Ministry in Old Harbour, St Catherine. She claimed that Kerriann, 45, removed his wedding band mid-service and declared that the ring carried a curse, before proceeding to pray over it to remove a bad spirit.

"From she took his ring off his finger, that’s when our marriage started to crumble," Nickiesha said, stressing that she believes the relationship never recovered from that incident.
