– Speaking with Chris Van Vliet, Cassie Lee opened up about mental health issues
“Yeah I would say it has been a rough couple of months. Since the draft and since they split Jess and I up I would say. But I am doing well, every day I am feeling happier. I'm just excited for the future and these opportunities I can chase. I have my moments where I get sad that everything didn't work out, but I truly believe everything happens for a reason and there is something bigger out there for me."
