As she’s performing for fans

Over the weekend, news broke that singer and actress LeAnn Rimes was divorcing her husband of seven years, Dean Sheremet. Following Brandi Glanville and Eddie Cibrian’s divorce announcement of last week, this did not surprise too many people. Still, the separation might have had nothing to do with the scandal of earlier this year, as sources are telling People magazine, and as LeAnn herself told her fans during a live concert.

Being in a relationship could be extremely tough, Rimes told her fans gathered at the Deer Valley Music Festival in Utah. Sometimes, things simply didn’t work out, no matter how hard you tried, but that was not reason enough to play the blame game, the singer told the crowd. In her and Dean’s case, things clearly did not work out, but she has long stopped blaming herself or seeking revenge, having put her life in God’s hands.

“You know, I think that you will all really be able to relate to this next song in your lives. You probably know it’s inevitable that in a relationship, sometimes you will have your heart broken at some point. Sometimes, you might say that you can’t do anything and sometimes, you want revenge. Sometimes, you say, ‘You’re not worth it.’ But sometimes, you don’t, and that’s when you leave it in God’s hands and know that he will take care of it.” LeAnn Rimes said before starting her set.

At the same time, friends of the songbird are also telling People that it might very well be that the split had nothing to do with the infidelity allegations currently making the rounds. The fact that Cibrian’s wife also asked for a divorce just days ago has nothing to do with LeAnn, being just a simple coincidence, unnamed “friends” reveal for the magazine, as her and Dean’s relationship had run its course even before these rumors emerged.

“They were so young when they got married, she was 19, he was 21. Maybe they just grew up and they weren’t in the same place anymore. I don’t think that’s unusual considering how young they were when they got married, and the business they’re in. They were so close, I believe that however the marriage works out, they will always be the best of friends.” insiders explain for People.
