Model, dancer, and TV host Cheryl Burke discussed her decision to adopt a new lifestyle following her divorce from Matthew Lawrence in February 2022.
"I'm not dating, and I'm choosing not to date," said Burke. When asked if her last date was "over three hundred and sixty-five" days, she replied, "Oh, for sure," reported People. "I still think guys are hot. That doesn't mean though, that they deserve me," she added. The 'Dancing with the Stars' face described herself as a "sober woman" who "respects and loves myself," as per the outlet. The former TV personality previously shared in an August 2024 Instagram Reel that it had been three years since she had started her celibacy journey, according to People. "The thing is, you have sex with me, I fall in love fast. So like, this is not a good thing, right? So we're working through this. We're like, 'Okay, well, maybe it doesn't have to be so intense,' " Burke on the podcast. "I am such an intense woman ... it is what it is, it's who I am." "The only thing that was real with whatever happened physically [is] that you allowed for it to happen," she shared, adding, "And I think a lot of that maybe back in the day when I would have casual maybe relationships or intimacy, it really just continued to chip away at my soul because at the end of the day, that says a lot about me." Burke also admitted that due to her sexual abuse as a child, she hasn't been "vulnerable enough" to be "truly intimate," something she has addressed in therapy, reported People. (ANI)
