Evans’ Advice for Women in Relationship

Evans thinks a lot of women will and want to judge her, but she says she and Barker are happy now. However, she will not suggest that others stay in a relationship if it’s too bad. “We’re so happy now, but I don’t want anyone to think that I’m advocating staying in a relationship where you are ever, in your gut, you know that you need to exit the situation,” Evans said. 

According to Evans, every woman needs to follow her gut to do what is best for her. “I believe and I hope that I’ve done that,” states Evans.
