"And I hold still to this day," she added.
"I was really happy to be able to share that with my fans, and readers and to show them the choice that I made. And have them receive it however they want to receive it. Letting my true heart shine was the goal of this book."
Speaking on the with Dax Holt and Adam Glyn, continued: "I share that and they either respect it or not. Everyone has respected it, which is awesome.
"A lot of people respect the things that sometimes you’re nervous to share. Which I’ve learned, just tell them in advance or speak up for yourself.
"Most of the time people will respect it. I have had those moments where people would make fun of me, or question me and be like 'yeah right.' I just have to hold that in my heart and know my truth and just let that be that."
But Ally concluded that feeling respect from others is "awesome" and that she had "never felt any pressure and that’s the great part about it. "
