"A woman that meant so much to me in my life left my life to be replaced by another woman to take that spot," KAT said of his mom and Woods. "I feel like in a way, when my mom passed, she was like, 'I'm not going to leave you alone. I'm going to make sure you know who you're supposed to be with.'" Towns said because Woods had dealt with similar tragedy -- she lost her father several years ago -- he used her shoulder to allow him to process the hurt."I leaned on her because she's one of the only people who would actually know how I was feeling and what was going through," KAT said."Because she was super close with her father just like I was super close with my mother.
