“I was seeing someone for about four months, it was getting pretty serious,” she said. “I have to confess I thought I was falling in love. He was a bit older, like an older human being. Men seem to mature a lot less quickly.”

The singer explained that the situation changed after they spent the night together and his phone rang during the evening.

“We were seeing each other for four months and we got in bed and we do the deed, it was great,” she told the crowd. “His phone rings just as he's about to finish and he jumps up and he's like, ‘I'll be back in two minutes.’”

Young said she then overheard the conversation through a Bluetooth speaker that was still connected downstairs.

“During the intercourse, the music was still playing on the Bluetooth speaker,” she explained. “He goes downstairs so he's on the phone and his wife is asking him to bring back nappies for his kids. I hear it all on the Bluetooth speaker.”

The British singer admitted she was unaware that the man had a family and said the experience affected her perspective on relationships.

“I lost the plot a bit,” she said. “I was like, I can't do this, I'm back to women.”

Young did not identify the man involved or reveal when the relationship took place.
