<p><span style="font-family: 'Avenir Medium';"><em>&lsquo;&rsquo;These sensationalized stories are coming from former employees who have already publicly admitted that they were told their behavior on tour was inappropriate and unprofessional.&rsquo;&rsquo; claimed the singer on Instagram. </em></span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span style="font-family: 'Avenir Medium';">And just when you think things couldn&rsquo;t possibly get any worse, did we mention Lizzo also got dumped by her boyfriend over the S.A. allegations?</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span style="font-family: 'Avenir Medium';">Lizzo's troubles have been spiraling, as not only are more individuals stepping forward to shed light on her actions, but she's also grappling with the absence of support from her partner. This sense of betrayal has triggered a breakdown for Lizzo, with sources suggesting that the breakup's impact has surpassed even the emotional toll of the lawsuit.</span></p>
