Country Weekly: Sara Evans Is "Living Again" Now That Her Divorce Is Final


Sara Evans and her husband recently announced they'd had agreed to the terms of a divorce. And, in an exclusive Country Weekly interview in today's issue, Sara Evans opens up about the struggles and joys of life as a single mom, her faith and what it took to start "living again."

Sara also talks about her new Greatest Hits CD and how she's doing in the midst of her protracted high-profile divorce from estranged husband Craig Schelske.
"Overall, I'm doing really well," Sara tells Country Weekly. It's sort of a roller coaster, but I'm just taking it one day at time. When you have three children [son Avery and daughters Olivia and Audrey], no matter what's going on in your life, you just have to continue on, every day. So that's what I'm doing."

EVERY STAR HAS A STORY ABOUT THE MOMENT THEY WERE DISCOVERED

No country star forgets a single detail of the moment they realize they'dbeen discovered. And in the current edition of Country Weekly there's a special section dedicated to discovery stories.
Martina McBride, for example, put two demo tapes into an eye-catching purple envelope which she delivered to the record label. Gretchen Wilson was first noticed tending bar in Nashville and singing with the house band, while Jason Aldean met his future manager at a show at Nashville's Wildhorse Saloon. Other featured stars include Vince Gill, Garth Brooks and Shania Twain.
