Personal Life
Following the end of her 2002 tour, Knapp moved to Australia and has since taken up Australian citizenship. In several interviews published in April 2010, Knapp announced that she is a lesbian, and has been in a same-sex relationship since 2002. She has said that her decision to leave the Christian music industry was not due solely to her coming out but to a number of factors including stress and burnout. Despite her sexual orientation, Knapp says that she not only still holds to her Christian faith, but feels that by being honest about her sexuality that her faith is actually enhanced. However, she has said that Letting Go "isn't a Christian record" and that it would not be marketed towards Christian radio.
