'Know that you're not alone. Your situation is not the end of the world,' she said in an interview to the website. 'Listen to your heart: nobody else can tell you what to do. But people that are close to you -- your friends and family -- tell them straight up. Be honest, open, and make sure everyone is on the same page. You don't want to make changes without people knowing because you'll have to face it at some point.'
