She said, “I will say this is not something that I foresaw and I’ll leave it there.” As we reported, she’s just working on healing from it. She said, “breakups suck. Breakups are awful. They hurt, right? And I think what’s so difficult is that it sometimes feels like it’s not in your control.”

Young went on to say you can’t speed up time, you just have to take it day by day.
