Even though her life changed irrevocably after she was thrust into the spotlight at the age of 16, Danielle Bradbery still managed to find love with Brent Hernandez. The two of them were in a long-term relationship, and Bradbery learned a lot about herself and love during this time.
During an interview with her record label, Big Machine Records, Bradbery opened up about her relationship and the valuable lessons she's learned. One of the most important lessons, which also inspired her hit song "Worth It," is that you shouldn't allow yourself to be "walked all over." "I've witnessed one of my best friends go through something and she was feeling just worthless. And I'm like, 'No, do not let this guy make you feel this way. There's so much more to you.' And I know a lot of friends and a lot of people that go through that," she said.
Bradbery also admitted that relationships have a steep learning curve and that it can never be smooth sailing all the way. "I've been in a long relationship and we all have moments, and especially being so young, you're still trying to figure each other out," she said. Naturally, her relationship with Hernandez had a big impact on her music, and her sophomore album was pretty much inspired by him. "I hope the boyfriend doesn't mind, but there's a lot coming out," she joked.
