Personal life

Lambert is married to gospel artist Bri Babineaux as of 12/22/2024.

Lambert was married to Nicole Lambert, and is the father of two daughters.

In 2009, after six months of silence on the issue, Lambert admitted to a retaliation extramarital affair with Shanté Tribbett, the wife of Tye Tribbett, a friend and fellow gospel artist, who himself had been caught in an extramarital affair with a woman from his choir. Shanté turned to Lambert, a close friend and confidant, for counseling. Their relationship became sexual, and Lambert later announced that he would temporarily step down from his ministerial role and admitted to disappointing his wife and children. Cross Movement Records, Lambert's first label, suspended him following the affair's revelation.

Lambert reconciled with his wife by June 15, 2010, and they celebrated a re-commitment ceremony on their eighth wedding anniversary.
