Elizabeth Cook, Tackling Personal Minefield
Elizabeth Cook, at the age of 45, not only has a defined tragedy but also a firm belief after growing through it. Her piled up catastrophe makes everyone believe in the strength a man possesses to get through all the troubles.
Elizabeth's latest tragedy, adding up to previous tragedies, comprises of her failed marriage vows that ended in an expensive divorce.
Elizabeth was previously married to her musician boyfriend, Tim Carroll, but the marriage could not last long and ended in divorce.
Elizabeth, in an interview with HuffPost in 2014, gave away the fact that they were divorcing:
“Uh, no. Tim and I are divorcing.”
However, the duo hasn't opened up about their marriage and their divorce dates. Nevertheless, for Elizabeth, who has had her share of experiencing the brutal tragedies beforehand, divorce might not have caused her the extensive pain.
Previously, she was diagnosed with a "chemical imbalance in her brain" which resulted in her spending time in rehab. Not just that, Elizabeth even lost her dear mom back in 2008, and her father's death in 2012 just added a piece of grieve on the pile.
Moreover, she also had considerable changes in her business, as she cut off her ties with her manager and agent.
However, her setbacks couldn't hold her back much longer while she radiated forward with her new album.
While sharing her thoughts with HuffPost back in 2014, Elizabeth shed lights on what her coming day comprises of, stating:
“Todd Snider has sort of been my, I don’t know, boss of the moment and mentor, and so I’m writing stuff and playing it for him. He’s got a lake house. We’re working on stuff out there. I’ve got three or four other recording projects going. Acting stuff going. Touring stuff going. A lot of personal life stuff going.”
Surely, a new beginning for the singer after rising through all the tragedies!
