LeAnn told Terri the hardest part about rehab was being alone for 30 days. "I have always had people around me… which was half of what I was working through, what do I do with myself when I’m off the road. I did 500 shows in three years. When I stopped, I would get super anxious.”

The country singer then spoke about her new single, “Borrowed,” written about her affair with now-husband Eddie Cibrian. “I carried that song and that title around with me for about eight months. I was afraid to write it because I knew I had to be incredibly personal… when I did,  it was through a lot of tears."

When asked about Eddie's reaction to the song, LeAnn said "He is always so supportive, I actually was scared to put him in the song because it does talk about how we both hurt each other. There was a moment where we did have some hurt between the two of us that we had to accept and get over and move forward. And that’s made for an amazing relationship.”

Rimes' album, “Spitfire,” is expected to hit stores in early 2013.

I bet the hurt she is referring to was that Eddie was allegedly still sleeping with Brandi AND Schaena after pretending to only be with LeAnn. EWWWWWWW!

Leanne is a few cards short of a deck, what is she thinking writing songs like that and giving all the interviews she's given about this marriage that was first a trashy affair. The hurt between them was that Eddie preferred to stay with his wife or so it seemed and Leanne pursued the hell out of him until it finally got him kicked out. It's hard to feel sorry for her when she brings this all on herself my being so public. A true artist politely says "no comment" when questioned about their personal life. The affair is the only thing that's made her relevant in years and she knows it.
