Becca Bowen Saw Her Boyfriend With Another Woman at Her Own Concert

The story behind Becca Bowen’s latest single “Son of a Gun” is more personal than we think. It turns out that Becca had never planned to record this song. Instead, it was inspired by one of the most heartbreaking moments in the singer’s life. In this article, we delve into the story of the track.

Becca Bowen’s Heartbreaking Story

Becca Bowen’s “Son of a Gun” single was inspired by a simple friendship that turned into a very complicated relationship. Season 5 winner of the reality series For Love and Likes, Becca Bowen had a close friend of six years who lived down the street from her. They shared many interests including country music, hunting, and fishing. According to the singer herself, though, “We just couldn’t commit to each other. I was always the one that wanted more out of it instead of just being friends with benefits, you know what I mean?”

Eventually, the relationship worked, and Becca believed they were finally fully committed to each other. However, during her performance at a July 4th celebration, the “Who Am I” singer noticed that her so-called boyfriend was in the crowd with another woman. She shared that all she could do was put on a pair of sunglasses so she couldn’t see them. After that, he blandly apologized, but Bowen didn’t speak to him for a while, even though they had been friends for a long time.

Song of Inspiration

Just like any other artist affected by the emotions, Becca Bowen used her anger to write and record her new single “Son of a Gun”. The singer, who admits that she doesn’t let love in easily, revealed that the whole incident still hurts — “Everybody’s looking for a fairytale, and when that doesn’t happen…”

Even so, Becca has said that her heart and the relationship have both healed over time.

Friendship After Love

Becca Bowen explained that the relationship couldn’t work despite the great friendship the two shared. She describes herself as “happily single” right now. The singer also shares they still talk every day and are best friends despite the obstacles. “There’s no judgment between us. It’s just a great friendship now.”

Bowen knows that the song may bring up potential speculation from people back home, but she’s okay with that. She called her ex-boyfriend after writing the song and asked him not to be mad at her. Although she’s no longer upset and has forgiven her ex, she’ll never forget.
