She also talked about why she wouldn’t be changing her surname. Rachel went on to speak about why she feels moving on doesn’t mean you need another person. She explained that social media users often tell her to just move on with someone else. However, she feels that she is good on her own and is doing the work internally to heal from the divorce.
“I find it very funny, in some of the joyous comments that I received on social media over the last few months, people are like ‘just move on already, just move on like get with someone else.’ I find it so interesting that that’s what’s considered moving on,” she said.
“I’m good by myself. I don’t think I’ve ever been better by myself,” she continued.
“It’s my life, It’s my journey, whether or not I’m in the public eye, shouldn’t determine the work I do internally and how I am processing things,” she added.
She went on to say that she is not 100% there as yet, but she is more equipped.
