Jana Kramerwants to “start getting back to having some normalcy” after splitting withMike Caussinfollowing six years of marriage.
On Wednesday, the country music star, 37, opened up about the aftermath of her separation in an Instagram Story video with the caption: “from the heart.”
“Hey guys, it feels is weird to be back on here,” she began, before thanking fans for their support. “I have to start getting used to my new normal and, I guess, forgive me for not really knowing how to walk that yet.”
“You know, I’m really just trying to dive into books and my therapist and not put a band-aid on things because in order to fully grow, you have to grieve and heal,” Kramer continued, noting in the video’s caption that she “meant to say in order to heal you need to grieve.”

“So I’m trying to just be really mindful of that and not distract myself with this, that and other,” she said. “But I do wanna start getting back to having some normalcy, even in my new normal, so that’s with you guys.”
Kramer firstannounced her splitwith Caussin, 34, last week in anemotional Instagram post, writing, “‘It’s time.’ As I try to make sense of a reality I never wanted to believe could be possible again, those words have now become a reality.”
“I’ve fought y’all. I’ve loved hard. I’ve forgiven. I’ve put the work in. I’ve given everything I have, and now I have nothing else to give,” she wrote. “Please know that I still believe wholeheartedly in marriage, love, and rebuilding. I just can’t fight any longer. It’s time to heal.”
