She stated:

"Before him [my ex-husband], there was somebody else that I married. It didn't work out. Nobody heard my voice. I didn't talk about it. That passed quietly.

"It lasted eight months. Biggest mistake of my life because the guy was an amazing guy. But he was my friend, my best friend. And religion is what caused that problem that made us marry when we were not supposed to be married. We were supposed to be very good friends because, as my friend, he was awesome. But as a married couple, we didn't work. We just spoiled it. And we knew it.

"So when we went our separate ways, we were like, out of love and respect for each other, let's just leave it. We don't talk about it; we just leave it so that at least we can still say, Hello, are you okay? How are you?"
