MORRIS HAS ALWAYS BEEN CANDID ABOUT HER BODY IMAGE ISSUES
The country singer is not the one to hold back from speaking out about body image issues. Previously, Morris opened up to Women’s Health about the photo of herself which she tweeted ahead of her concert in San Francisco.
“After taking that picture, I went through this horrible breakup, and I lost so much weight. I didn’t look at my body like it was healthy—when you’re going through emotional turmoil, it’s hard to eat. That was a wake-up call: I need to address my mental and physical health,” she shared.
Morris is truly an inspiration for those who are seeking mental and physical well-being.
