Morgan Wade has gained attention for her uplifting music and her notable friendships.

In 2018, the country singer started her journey with her band, Morgan Wade and the Stepbrothers, by unveiling their inaugural album, "Puppets With My Heart." Within a year, Wade embarked on her solo career and introduced her first individual track, "The Night," followed by her debut album, "Reckless," which hit the music scene in March 2021.

Wade expressed her extreme nervousness about releasing the album in an interview with Wonderland Magazine in March 2022. She emphasized the significance of the debut and the hard work she had put into the record. Wade acknowledged the vulnerability of the album, which added more pressure to her.

After the success of Reckless, Wade released a deluxe edition of the album in January 2022. In April of the same year, she made her debut at the prestigious Grand Ole Opry in Nashville. Throughout her journey in the music industry, Wade has collaborated with renowned artists like Kip Moore, Julia Michaels, and Diplo. She has also gained a following of celebrity fans.

In February 2022, Kyle Richards, star of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, expressed her admiration for the singer known as "Psychopath" when they met for the first time. She shared a photo on Instagram of them enjoying lunch together with friends, captioning it with, "Some may see our friendship as unlikely, but the bond we have knows no boundaries."

Addressing speculation in July 2023 that she was romantically involved with Wade following her separation from her husband Mauricio Umansky, Richards clarified that they were simply good friends. She dismissed the rumors as just that, emphasizing that they were unfounded.

4. Has Morgan Wade Talked About Health Scares?

Aside from openly expressing her struggles with sobriety in her music, Wade revealed her intention to undergo a double mastectomy in May 2023. This decision stemmed from the discovery that she carries the BCRA gene, which indicates a higher susceptibility to breast cancer. "I'll be going all out with my music until November, and then I'll take November and December off to rest," she shared with Page Six at the time.

She continued, "I'm feeling alright, but I'm frustrated that I won't be able to exercise because I really enjoy it. That's my only concern. My mother had it, and my younger cousin is going to experience it, but I will be fine."

In June 2023, Wade revealed on Instagram that she had received a diagnosis of Tourette's syndrome. "Keeping this brief and simple — if you notice me frequently shaking my head, it's because of Tourette's. Some people ask genuinely, while others like to tease me, but that's just how it is," she explained. "I sometimes make unusual facial expressions and noises, and my head shakes. So please think before you judge me."

Wade observed in the comments of the post that her tics occur when she experiences feelings of "anxiety, nervousness, or agitation," but they can also occasionally manifest "unexpectedly." She ended her message by acknowledging individuals "coping with Tourette's and enduring it on a daily basis ❤️."
