Rea Garvey: Separation that brought freedom - his brave words!

Rea Garvey: Separation that brought freedom - his brave words!

The Irish singer Rea Garvey (51), known from "The Voice of Germany", speaks openly about painful separations in his new song "Loving You Hurts". Garvey, who published his album "Halo" last year and also goes on tour through cities such as Bochum, Hamburg and Berlin, addresses his music how important it is to make the right decisions in relationships. The musician himself found out that it is sometimes better to draw a line, even if it hurts. "I separated and it was a good feeling because I knew that I did the right thing," he explains, emphasizing the value of honesty in relationships, as berlin-live.de.

A look back at past relationships

In an emotional Instagram video, Garvey tells of his past, in which he once got an ex-partner to go away. "You would be better off if you went somewhere else and someone else meets someone else," he said to her, because he wanted her to discover the world outside of her usual lifestyle. This was a decision that was ultimately the best for her. "If we had stayed together, she would not have seen the world," Rea reflects bitterly, and acknowledges that he did not know what love really meant at the time. Gala.de Garvey quotes: "The idea is absurd to be in a relationship in which you notice that the other is better without one." He emphasizes this insight as particularly important - many people would often "accept small lies", which ultimately grow to great lies, which leads to dysfunctional relationships.

Rea Garvey, who is happy today with his wife Josephine and two children, encourages his fans to always be honest. "This is never the right solution," said the singer, who has learned from his experience that it is worth making painful decisions in order to give himself and the partner the best. With his new music that reflects personal experiences, he wants to encourage and sensitize that unpleasant truths often have the greatest value.
