"One Tree Hill" Jana Kramer is going through a split with her recent beau Ian Schinelli. In July last year, the actress and singer finalized her divorce from her ex-husband, Mike Caussin, after six years of marriage and two children.

Kramer went public with the Navy SEAL reserve member in January 2022 after a mutual friend introduced the duo. She revealed that she and Schinelli were taking it slow, especially due to her previous "toxic" relationship.

In a recent cryptic Instagram story, Kramer raised eyebrows by talking about the importance of loving yourself as a single person before getting into a relationship. After much speculation due to the post, the country singer confirmed that she had called it quits with Schinelli.

The post read, "If you're happy alone, you'll be happier together. There is no type of affection that can fill the void in a person who doesn't love themselves already. There is no independence in dependency. There is no personal security in attaching yourself to a secure person."

The rest of the post highlighted the importance of having a "healthy relationship" with yourself to ensure healthy decisions about other people. Another post read, "If you don't choose yourself, you'll never feel chosen by anyone else either."

Kramer Went Public With Schinelli In January

Kramer and Schinelli met via Andrew East, a mutual friend, in October. In an interview with People early this year, the actress talked about her relationship and how she was still taking it step by step with the single dad.

She said, "It's going good, but it's very hard to be in a healthy relationship outside of a toxic relationship. I'm just trying to relearn things, and he's very patient." The now single mom also talked about how her children were still her main focus regardless of the relationship.

"My focus is my kids and myself and continuing to heal and grow," she said. The actress also expressed some reluctance in making the relationship overly public. She didn't post Schinelli at the beginning of their relationship because she didn't want the pressure of her previous relationship to follow them.
