Though the road hasn’t always been easy, Kelly Rowland finds herself in a joyful place these days.

The sexy songbird just got married to manager Tim Witherspoon in Costa Rica, though she’s always had plenty of ‘soul mates’ to lean on.

Kelly told press, "I believe soul mates are not just in relationships, but they’re in friendships. I have soul mates through Beyoncé Knowles and Michelle [Williams] and [Beyonce's cousin] Angie [Beyonce] and Solange [Knowles] and LaLa [Anthony].”

“I have soul mates. I’m so thankful for that too because I think they understand you. If there’s something on my heart or my mind, before I can even pick up the phone, one of them is calling me saying, 'What are you doing? Are you ok?' We’re connected and I think that’s such a beautiful thing. It’s the greatest gift you can have."
