In a candid interview with Flow Space, Rimes described feeling like “a target that was just easily projected upon” as anger and backlash were directed her way. She acknowledged the complexity of emotions involved, explaining, “I realized very quickly that there are a lot of women who’ve been hurt… I’ve been cheated on, too, so I know that feeling.”

While Rimes took responsibility for her role in the situation, she shared that she chose not to carry the pain of everyone involved, saying, “the world’s pain is not mine to carry.” She emphasized that she has worked to make amends where she can but that the public backlash was often misplaced.

Brandi Glanville, who was married to Eddie Cibrian when the affair became public, was undeniably affected by the situation. The experience was difficult not only personally but also in the public eye, as she balanced family life and the media attention surrounding the scandal.

Since then, the families have blended, with Rimes and Cibrian raising a happy blended family alongside Glanville’s sons, Mason and Jake. Rimes reflected on her personal growth, sharing that she has moved from “survival to thriving to… truly living.” Meanwhile, Glanville has continued to focus on her own life and her children, demonstrating resilience throughout.

I can't believe they're still married...so good for them. Having said that, she was an absolute b*tch to her then husband who she humiliated and dumped. He really was a good guy who stood by her during that whole thing with her father...brat that she was. I don't know why she never had children and I don't really care but I thought that was odd. She has a beautiful voice and could have had a huge career but she wouldn't leave whatshisname to tour cause she knew that guy would never be faithful if she wasn't around him 24/7. Not a fan of hers on a personal level but I do really like some of her music. That's all. ?

Very true, where she may be lacking in the morality department (I say "may" because you really can't rely on what you read, and we ARE talking Brainless Landfill here), she certainly makes up for with her phenomenal voice.
