Maren Morris , the American country singer, opened up about the difficulties after the divorce, and while the relationship has been ‘friendly,’ it has been weird.

Friendly but weirdDuring a podcast episode of Therapuss with Jake Shane, the singer revealed the intricacies of being divorced in a small town like Nashville, where she and her ex-husband, Ryan Hurd , have mutual friends.

“In Nashville, you know I’ve been divorced for a little over a year now. It’s a small town, and we’re all friends, and we all work together, and the music industry is very tiny there,” the 35-year-old artist said about her 38-year-old ex, according to People magazine .

The relationship between the two is friendly at a point, but it has been weird as their mutual friends had to pick sides after the split. “Just in terms of respect for each other. I saw a really close friend of my ex's at a bar a couple months ago, and I was with my best friend,” she explained, before adding, “We all used to hang out together for a decade or more and then it’s like, 'Damn, it’s just going to be kind of weird.' Maybe it’s just going to be weird for the first few years."


Maren Morris moved past the hurdles...
Morris and Hurd share a 5-year-old son, Hayes. Further in the episode, Maren revealed that fortunately, she and her ex had moved past the problems, keeping their son as their priority. “We're over a year out now ... we get along now and have moved past a lot of it. We're neighbours, and I'm just so fortunate that we have put our son above each other's s—, and it's better for the two of us if we're getting along,” she said, adding that they have the highest respect for each other.
