The WWE star hinted at her relationship with Swindell in February, after the"Love You Too Late"singer expressed his gratitude for the Academy of Country Music and songwriters behind “Break Up in the End,” which was nominated for song of the year. (The award ultimately went toDan + Shay‘s hit single"Tequila.")
