There were many speculations that
Gwen Stefani's divorce from Gavin Rossdale inspired her to right the emotional lyrics of her latest single "Used to Love You," and the singer has now opened up about how she came to pen the song.
The 46-year-old songtress said she has nothing to hide about her emotional state, reported People magazine.
"Things went down, I think it was February where my life just, 'Whoa!' It just changed. Before that, I couldn't really write. I wanted to, but my life was just so... I don't even know how to describe it.
"Everybody knows that I was married forever and now I'm not. Could you imagine what my life is like right now? It's crazy!," Stefani said.
The "Rich Girl" hitmaker said the chorus for the new song came to her mind, "the day after some crazy stuff had gone down".
I've been writing stuff randomly, like, instead of going online and looking at stupid stuff, but being like, 'I'm just going to write. This is how I'm going to heal. I need to write.' And I went back in and found that lyric and then it ended up being the chorus of the song.
