I thought she had just got home, but she was still in the airport, unfortunately, because that makes this story even worse. She’s like, ‘Hey if we’re not doing CMAs next week we have to give them a reason why.’ And I just blurted out, ‘We’re not doing CMAs because I can’t be with you anymore.’ So yeah, I broke up with her over the phone, which is a d–k move,” he said.
