While she appears to have found love with British actor and Masters of the Air star Callum Turner now, the singer says she’s had the same problems as many other women when it comes to men – so much so that her experience has inspired her new single.
“I had been on a string of bad dates, and the last one was the final straw,” says Dua, 28. “The next morning, I arrived at the studio and immediately declared: ‘Training season is over.’
“And like the best day-after debriefs with your mates, we had a lot of laughs and it all quickly came together from there.”
Explaining the meaning of the song’s title, she continues: “Although it’s about that feeling when you’re absolutely done with telling people – men specifically, in this case – how to date you right, it’s also about my training season being over and me growing with every experience.
“I have never felt more confident, clear or empowered. And while it may be that training season is never over for any of us, you start to see the beauty in finding that person to experience it with. You stop looking for the trainees and become more interested in finding someone to grow with.”
