Kelsea Ballerini opened up about her bad eating habits.
The singer revealed she had bulimia when she was young.
She said, “My parents had just gotten divorced, and I think for me, it was a source of control.”
Apart from battling the eating disorder, she took pills, and exercised extensively to a point that she passed out many times.
She’s much better now, saying, “I'm in a much healthier spot, and I'm much more gentle with how I talk to myself and my body.”
However, for Ballerini, life under the spotlight can be hard sometimes.
She stated, “There are still days where I revert back to being that 12-year-old, and I have to catch myself, and hold myself accountable to the work I've done."
She explained that she doesn’t “work out to get skinny, I work out to be healthy.”
In her teens, Ballerini watched her classmate die from a gunshot wound, which traumatized her.
