Stern then asked her on if she's ready to date again, to which Morris said she'd "like this to sort of wrap up" before she embarks on that journey again. Instead, she said she's been focused on her music.

"I don't have the headspace for that yet," she said of her putting herself back out there. "But I'm writing so much right now. That's kind of been my way of dating is just through song."
