Maren Morris wants to be ‘a good mom to’ her son
Maren Morris told People that her son “definitely brought me through a lot of this year". The little one helped her overcome emotional turmoil following her divorce.
She stated, “Whether he knows it or not. I doubt he does, but I just want to be a good mom to him.”
Explaining further, Morris said, “He loves being on the road, which has been so much fun this summer, having Hayes out. I don't know, we feel like partners in crime a little bit, and we're going to be on this bus journey for forever.
“It just makes me so happy when he's out and the fact that he loves it out here so much.”
“I feel like there's so many emotions when you have a child with somebody and the relationship doesn't pan out and you just have to put on a brave face and a consistent face for your baby,” she said while referring to her divorce.
Morris added, “I think he's gone through a lot and there's. I'm sure, a lot of confusion because he's so little. But also, I feel like Ryan and I have done a really great job at just being great parents for him.”
Maren Morris dedicates a song to her son
Maren Morris also talked about her new song, ‘Because, Of Course’, which is a "love letter" to son Hayes.
She asserted, “I wrote it about him. It's obviously my promise to him: Every love like that, especially a mother's should be unconditional, but I like that when people listen to the song, it could be taken as a romantic song, but I didn't write it about that. It was just about love itself.”
