Following its release, she embarked on a world tour, watched as her songs climbed the charts — and soaked it all in with the people she loves most by her side. Speaking to Rolling Stone during a cover story interview released Tuesday, the "SAOKO" singer reflected on the moment she earned the album of the year award at the Latin Grammys in November. "I hugged the two people I love the most in this life, because they also know how much I had to fight to finish this album," the 30-year-old singer said of her boyfriend Rauw Alejandro, 29, and sister Pili, who is her stylist and creative director.

"It was one of the toughest times in my life. I wanted to go back home so bad, but I knew that if I went back, I'd be putting the project at risk," she said. "There was a high probability that I wouldn't finish it." But in the end, it was all worth it. Rosalía for Rolling Stone.

The Spanish singer and the Puerto Rican star made their relationship Instagram official in September, following Rosalía's birthday. Since then, they've kept the details of their relationship largely under wraps — with a few sweet public appearances in between. Rosalía for Rolling Stone.
