American singer Billie Eilish has made a confident statement about her romantic experiences, asserting that she has never experienced heartbreak or been “dumped” by a partner.
In an interview with Lana Del Rey for Interview Magazine, Eilish disclosed that she has always been the one to initiate breakups with her ex-partners.
She clarified that this does not make her a heartbreaker, but rather someone who recognizes when a relationship isn’t working and takes the initiative to end it.
“I really don’t like being. I was going to say out of control, but there’s ways that I do like being out of control. I have a power issue and a control issue, and I also don’t like being vulnerable in a romantic way. It makes me feel uncomfortable, and I don’t know how many times I’ve really been in love.
“I think there are different versions of love, and I think that you can be in love and it might not be deep. I’m not going to get too in detail, because I’m going to be rude, but I’ve never been dumped, and also, I’ve never been broken up with. I’ve only done the breaking up.
“I think when people hear that, they’re like, ‘Oh, all you do is break hearts.’ Sure, but that doesn’t mean that people are totally innocent. It means that I was like, ‘Oh, let me get the f3ck out of here.’ Or it means things just weren’t right,” she said.
Billie Eilish’s most recent public relationship was with singer Jesse Rutherford. In May 2022, Eilish’s team confirmed their split and said the relationship ended amicably.
