‘Thank you guys so much for sharing my broken heart with me,’ Miranda told the audience last night.
Her heartfelt words to her fans were a direct reference to the fact that “Tin Man” was written soon after her split from Blake, who is now famously dating Gwen Stefani.

It was just last November when Ok! reported that the 34-year-old would channel her heartbreak in new music “about how he became distant.” Clearly she did not disappoint.
Blake hasn’t been the only man to break her heart, though. Her more recent breakup with Anderson East has likely inspired some gut-wrenching performances of these songs as well.
Meanwhile, Blake has been completely unbothered by any hurt feelings Miranda may still have about him—as he and Gwen have been going on romantic vacations, hanging out with her kids, and even talking about marriage.
