‘It’s just been me and the girls for so long, and we’ve been though a lot,’ she told the publication this week.

‘It’s hard to be able to trust somebody, and it was a lot of walls that he had to break down with me and the girls, honestly.’

Her love life won’t be the only focus of the sophomore season.
