It was cool because we were already separated so I thought, ‘what’s the big difference?’ It really hit home when I got off the road in October. I had a show every night and was rehearsing during the days When we decided to take the break, I was still on the road. Sometimes its easier to deal with things when you’re away and busy. We had a great run while it lasted and I learned a lot. I don’t look back and feel that I wasted my time. The space turned into a break, and the break turned into a breakup. We ultimately decided to take some space. We had different goals and dreams workwise, and our friendship was kind of fading away. We could go a day or two without talking, and I just felt like we weren’t on the same page anymore. We were comfortable and used to each other. Then of course, with work and travel comes distance, which means you have to work harder for communication.
‘Do I really want to be married, or do I even want to marry him? Am I really happy? Do I need to work on me before I take this leap?’ I was trying to understand that a little bit more. Eventually, I had to look in the mirror and ask myself why. I found myself making excuses for why I wasn’t planning more. Then the next year rolled around, and I went on tour. So we took the first year to enjoy the engagement and have fun with this new step in our relationship. There were all these choices I had to make, and it was overwhelming. I started thinking of the fact that I had to pick flowers, textures, and silverware. I realized once I got engaged that I wasn’t the girl who dreamt of her wedding day. But if it was up to me, I don’t know that I would have chosen this type of proposal.Īfterward, we had a beautiful engagement shoot with my good friend Cecile Boko. It was sweet and a nice way to show the love in front of the world. The big grand gesture, I felt, wasn’t necessarily for me. I’m happy with one little rose on Valentine’s Day, not a house filled with flowers. “I’m pretty low key, so I don’t need big gestures all the time. There’s Never A Right Time To Say Goodbye I wasn’t in the mindset to be planning a wedding. Looking back on it now, I feel like, had we been more connected, that timing probably would not have happened then. So it was the worst year of my life mixed with one of the happiest moments of my life – definitely an emotional roller coaster. That was the start of the year, and it kept rolling on which made the entire year really hard for me. So that was really rough for me because it was such an invasion of privacy. I still have stuff to get off my credit report because of that. I was locked out of everything and could barely send an email. I was getting calls every day all day saying I got approved for car loans and money is being taken out of here and there. I was a victim of identity theft while rehearsing and getting ready to tour with Beyonce. “2016 was a very interesting year for me. I’m grateful she allowed someone who wasn’t even on tour with us on stage, holding her mic…that really happened! It was very generous of her.” She knows how much history we have and so she just wanted to pay her respects.
I knew Beyoncé allowed that for me and for our relationship. I’m low key, so I was shocked completely. I was like a turtle wanting to crawl in my shell. I felt vulnerable, and all the attention and cameras were on me. When I’m on stage, I’m a different character than I am in my everyday life.
