Leann Rimes has broken her silence over rumours she has split from husband Dean Sheremet - telling gig-goers in Utah she is nursing a "broken heart".
The couple's marriage has been under intense scrutiny since she was caught on camera kissing her Northern Lights co-star Eddie Cibrian during a night out in Los Angeles earlier this year.
Both stars denied cheating on their spouses, but rumours of an affair were fuelled last week when Cibrian's wife Brandi Glanville revealed she was taking some time apart from her husband - hinting there was more to Cibrian and Rimes' relationship than they admitted.
Rimes and Sheremet have subsequently been hit by rumours that they too are living separately in a bid to salvage their relationship, with the Blue hitmaker being snapped out and about without her wedding ring.
The singer has now voiced her thoughts on the speculation surrounding her marriage - opening up to the audience at the Deer Valley Music Festival in Utah on Saturday night.
During her performance, Rimes stopped and told the crowd about her heart-ache: "It is inevitable that sometimes in a relationship, you will have your heart broken. Sometimes you don't do anything, but sometimes you want revenge. Sometimes you don't, and that's when you just leave it in God's hands and know that He will take care of it."
Meanwhile in related news Sheremet has confirmed the couple are going through a rough patch - after taking to the internet to thanks fans for their support through a "very difficult time".
The Blue singer/actress' marriage has been under intense scrutiny for months after she was caught on camera kissing her Northern Lights co-star Eddie Cibrian during an intimate night out in Los Angeles earlier this year.
The stars both denied cheating on their respective spouses, but on Tuesday Cibrian's wife Brandi Glanville revealed she was taking some time apart from her husband - and suggested there was more to Cibrian and Rimes' relationship than they had admitted.
And just a day after internet reports claimed Rimes and Sheremet were living separately in a bid to salvage their marriage, dancer Sheremet has sent out a message of thanks to all the people who have been rallying around him through the tough times.
In a post on his Twitter.com page, he writes, "Thanks to everyone for all the support through a very difficult time!"
