“My romantic relationship was beautiful but a little quite manipulative,” he said.

Rema explained that being a public figure already comes with heavy expectations.

Between his music career, constant attention from fans, and pressure from the entertainment industry, he said he often looked forward to home being his safe space.

For the singer, returning home after work was supposed to bring relief.

Instead, he found himself dealing with more tension.

“Knowing the world puts so much pressure on me but coming back home is where you want to feel relieved… but when you come back home and you are getting more pressure, it’s a different story,” he said.

The singer’s comments have also struck a chord with many fans who could relate to wanting peace in their personal lives after facing outside stress.

Rema said there came a point where he could no longer continue.

“For now, I’m done,” he added.
