And though she doesn’t have it all figured out when she sees online speculation — she’s working on it.“I see so much about my love life online.

So then I started posting with this person, and then it became a whole thing. Now I’m like, f—, I have to deal with the consequences of my own actions of publicly co-signing someone as my partner,” she says.Though Rapp has never confirmed who she’s dating, she recently shared a sweet video on TikTok where she’s laying on top of TikTokerAlissa Carrington.

This is what I’m going through’ thing, which is great, but I think thatSnow Angelis a bit more resilient and it’s a bit more matter of fact and has a little bit more bite,” she says.The 12-track album, which features themes of love and heartbreak, was all written from experience.“All the songs I write obviously are about things that I’ve been through personally, but I think that any relationship I’ve ever had in my life is all culminated into one on this project and in these songs. I love relationships. I love so hard,” she says.Adding, “I am very protective of the people that I love. I’m very protective of myself, and all of these situations were taken from relationships that I had, whether they be good or bad.”
