While appearing on a 2015 episode of The Meredith Vieira Show, the Foolish singer hinted at the reason behind her separation with Nelly and said,
“I think sometimes when people have their own insecurities it allows them to act out of character. I’ve been betrayed. I’m not a big fan of people being cowards. I’m in a different place now.”
While performing at a concert in 2018, the vocalist apparently hinted at this betrayal. She said:
“I’ve been betrayed before. Publicly at that.”
To this, a fan allegedly yelled, “f**k Nelly!” and the vocalist pointed at them and said, “Word.”
