The Biggest Celebrity Divorces of the Decade

I have to say, I am a big fan of Morgan Evans. I first heard his music when his single "Kiss Somebody" hit the airwaves on country radio, and I was immediately hooked. It was just one of those songs that always put me in a good mood.

I was sad to hear about his recent divorce from Kelsea Ballerini, and even though I can't imagine what he's going through, I can certainly empathize. Breakups are tough, and I've certainly had my fair share of heartbreak over the years. I hope Morgan is taking the time he needs to heal and take care of himself.

Morgan recently revealed that he considered leaving Nashville after his divorce from Kelsea Ballerini.

Evans said, "I think, honestly, I probably considered everything. Yeah. I mean, massive life change."

He continued, "I keep coming back to Nashville because I love music so much. And I love the community that makes music so much. I think it'll always be a place that I come back to be creative and surround myself with those kinds of people."
