Kaitlyn Bristowe Releases Emotional New Song Lonely in Love to Mark 40th Birthday
On June 19, 2025, Kaitlyn Bristowe, a former star of The Bachelorette, released a new song titled "Lonely in Love" to mark her 40th birthday. The announcement was made on Instagram, where Bristowe shared her thoughts on the song and its themes. In the post, Bristowe reflected on the heartbreaking feeling of being lonely in love. "I love writing and singing about things I can reflect on. Things that broke me, and built me," she wrote. The ballad appears to be about the end of a relationship, though Bristowe does not specify which ex or exes she is singing about. The lyrics include lines such as "You took my heart and everything for granted / And I just ran through the motions / Burned out and broken." Bristowe was previously engaged to fellow Bachelor Nation alum Jason Tartick, who she split from in August 2023 after four years together. She also released two singles in 2020, Good for Somebody and If I’m Being Honest, the latter of which was about her breakup from ex-fiancé Shawn Booth. Booth and Bristowe met and got engaged during Bristowe's season of The Bachelorette in 2015, ultimately breaking up in 2018. In the comments section of her Instagram post, Bristowe received congratulations and birthday wishes from several Bachelor Nation members, including rumored boyfriend Zac Clark. "Happy Birthday Moon. This is brave, great song. Keep Going," he wrote. Becca Tilley, Bristowe's cast mate on Chris Soules' season of The Bachelor, added, "OMG!!! So proud of you!!! I love your voice- our little Canadian girl with her Nashville twang 😍😍😍😍." Trista Sutter, season one Bachelorette, said, "Soooooo freaking proud of you!!! It is so good! ❤️" Bristowe's new song is a testament to her resilience and ability to reflect on her experiences and use them to create art. The song is sure to resonate with many fans of the Bachelor franchise and those who have experienced the heartbreak of a failed relationship. As Bristowe herself said, "I love writing and singing about things I can reflect on. Things that broke me, and built me."
