Emotional moment Olivia Dean breaks down in tears during love song onstage as furious fans demand ‘who hurt her?’
OLIVIA Dean broke down in tears while singing her song ‘Let Alone The One You Love’ live on stage.
The singer, 27, performed in Boston earlier this week as part of her ‘The Art of Loving’ tour but became overcome with emotion during the poignant track.
The moment was shared on TikTok, with Olivia looking stunning in a gorgeous red dress with a lace detailing.
As she belted out the track, she struggled to keep her emotion in as she began to cry.
She wiped the tears away from her face as the audience cheered loudly for her.
Olivia continued singing as she attempted to hold it together during the performance.
The song in question was released in September last year as part of her critically acclaimed studio album of the same name as her tour.
The track delves into the painful realisation that a partner is trying to stop your personal growth.
It explores the heavy emotional toll of romantic disappointment, capturing the grief of choosing self-love over a relationship where you feel small or disposable.
The lyrics include: “Though I’ve tried to hold on, and, if you knew me at all, you wouldn’t try to keep me small.
“Who would do that to a friend, let alone the one you love?”
Fans flocked to TikTok to share their thoughts as one asked: “Who hurt her?”
Another person demanded: “OK s**t just got real. Who hurt my baby?”
Somebody else commented: “NAAAH she’s singing it like she’s talking to someone.”
Yet another penned: “It’s okay, I cry during her songs too.”
While a fifth added: “These lyrics are real as f**k and that pain is DEEP!”
It comes after she turned down the chance to headline Glastonbury next year – where Harry Styles is topping the bill.
She was romantically linked to the former One Direction star two years ago, although they always denied they dated.
She is said to be opting to work on new music in 2027 instead and hopes to perform at the music festival in 2028.
An insider told The Sun: “Olivia’s team had conversations with Glastonbury about headlining in 2027 and she was extremely flattered.
“But after some reflection, she said she wants to take some time to work on new music next year, with a rough plan to return when her third album is ready.
“Of course, if she did it next year, her name would be right next to Harry’s and she just wants to move on from that now.
“She’s happy for him to have his moment, but she doesn’t feel like next year is hers.”
