Set for release on September 13, the upcoming 18-track project sees the singer, 32, 'let go of the hang ups' that surrounded her first record. The semi-autobiographical songs allude to events that she'd 'never be able to discuss in public,' with Suki lifting the lid on the subject matter in a new interview.

The musician began dating current partner Robert Pattinson , 38, in 2018 and the couple welcomed their first child together, a daughter, in April this year. She competed her album just five days before the birth of her daughter, with much of the album detailing her journey to finding love after a series of doomed romances. Suki Waterhouse is set to discusses the 'dark underbelly' of past her relationships and heartbreak on her candid album, Memoir Of A Sparklemuffin Set for release on September 13, the upcoming 18-track project sees the singer, 32, 'let go of the hang ups' that surrounded her first record (pictured at a listening party on Thursday) 'I was in a different place mentally making this album – I didn’t have as many hang-ups as when I was making the first one,' Suki told DIY Magazine .



Explaining how writing autobiographical songs is 'very appealing,' she added how there are certain topics she still isn't prepared to write about. In one song, Lawsuit, she sings: 'I heard all about you from the girls in line in the bathroom.' Suki explained to the publication: 'It’s not my lawsuit, but it’s definitely about a dark underbelly and the things that go on.

'It’s about something I’d probably never be able to discuss in public, but it’s more than just, "F*** this guy!" It’s about a bunch of women connecting who’ve had a similar experience. And there’s this feeling of, "Yeah, everyone’s really got each other’s back".' Before finding love with Robert, Suki had a number of high profile romances.

Suki previously dated British musician Miles Kane, 38, from 2011 until 2013, beginning when she was 19 and he was 25. Aged 20, she then had a two-year relationship with Hollywood actor, Bradley Cooper , who was 17 years her senior.

The love I experienced [then] was only ever a fetishisation, and I think when you only get loved in that way, you only get punished.' 'I really will say that I'm pretty strong at this point, but when something very public happens to you and the story behind it is dark and difficult, and you're actually not doing well, and you can't explain yourself to the world, that's very isolating and disorientating.

' Admitting the effect it had on her, she added: 'It probably has taken a decade to work myself out and actually be able to have this expansion in my life. 'If you told her then this is where she would be now I wouldn't have believed you.' Reflecting on her romantically unstable twenties, Suki, now 32 and establishing herself as a promising singer-songwriter, admitted her new music has been inspired by the 'colossal heartbreak' she suffered during that turbulent chapter.

'I was kind of depressed for a while,' she told The Sunday Times Style magazine last year. 'It stuck around for a long time. I think it was just the break-up and also just being in my twenties and in the f***ing trenches.
