Her Past With Lance Armstrong and More – Hollywood Life
Sheryl Crow’s music encompasses heartbreak and the joy of falling in love. From “If It Makes You Happy” to “My Favorite Mistake,” the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee has poured her heart out into her songwriting throughout her career. Fans can watch Sheryl’s long-awaited induction into the HoF on January 1 on ABC.
Although it’s not currently clear whether or not she is in a relationship now, the “Strong Enough” singer has opened up about romance in past interviews. Despite enduring a few breakups, Sheryl noted that she “would love to get married” while speaking with Good Housekeeping in 2020.
“I’m still old-fashioned. But I don’t think marriage is the be-all-and-end-all,” the Grammy Award winner explained. “It’s better to have three broken engagements than three divorces.”
As for what she looks for in a partner, Sheryl noted that she has “always gone out with guys who were highly successful, which would seem like it would put me at an equal level.” However, she explained that “what ends up happening is that one of you becomes smaller — and it was always me. I do think that sometimes, in order for one person’s light to shine, everyone else has to dim theirs.”
