Reba McEntire is featured on tonight’s (11/10) ABC special Country Strong hosted by Robin Roberts and on the show she discusses her relationship with actor Rex Linn.

She said that she feels like a “giddy teenager again” since the pair began dating. Reba told GMA, “I’m in love. [Being in love] really inspires me to find love songs, to find happy songs. I’ve always been the queen of waltzes, the queen of sad songs, because I just gravitate to those kinds of songs.”

She adds, “Music has always been therapy for me. It’s very healing.”

Reba shared the news of her relationship with Linn in October on her Podcast and has since been sharing fun Instagram posts with him.

Reba – along with Darius Rucker – will host tomorrow night’s (11/11) CMA Awards live from Nashville, which airs at 8PM ET on ABC.
