He had later admitted that he had "some growing up to do.” “I think I've lost myself a little bit. I've tried to find joy in the wrong places. I don't know. It's left me with less joy, so I'm going to go try to work on that. I'm going to take a step back from the spotlight for a little while and go work on myself,” reports E! Online. Wallen was also arrested in May 2020 and charged with public intoxication and disorderly conduct in Nashville. The charges were reportedly dropped later.
