The song references K-Row's previous resentment of Queen B's solo success as well as an abusive relationship she was involved in, with The X Factor USA judge now telling Washington radio station 93.9 WKYS that Bey was "proud" of her for speaking her mind.
When asked about her jealously towards Beyoncé, Rowland explained: "I was young, you know? I was so young. That's the most that I can say about that - I was so young and in a relationship and my head was completely gone.
"That's just basically what happened and with my sisters, what matters to me the most right now is what we have. And I love her and Michelle more than anything, and they mean the world to me. I'm so grateful for what we have as sisters, away from Destiny's Child."
She added that both Bey and fellow DC star Michelle Williams were supportive of the tune, stating: "[Beyoncé's reaction] was endearing. It was, 'I never left!' Which was so sweet, and I was just like, 'Oh my God'.
"But yeah, it was endearing. It was real - she heard how real I was. She was just like, 'I'm so proud of you'."
Kelly went on to add she was surprised to find herself in tears during a recent performance of Dirty Laundry in Washington DC, stating: "It's really weird when you take yourself out of being in front of a crowd.
"In that moment - and even the way I just sat up there and put my feet up - I felt like I was in therapy... I'm just up there singing and talking and explaining what happened, but it was like the crowd wasn't even there for a second.
"And then when the music stopped I was like, 'You are live, Kelly - calm down', and I had to calm down. In that moment, I was like, 'Okay, brr, breathe', and I was sitting up there breathing. I'm like, 'Okay, don't break down now!'"
She added: "You get lost and there's nothing wrong with being lost, but that was weird - that won't happen again! It was just so weird - it's very weird when that happens."
I think that it is so sweet of Girls to show their support to Kelly at this time, it was clearly hard for her to talk about such a dark time in her time in her life. I can't wait for Kelly's album to hit the shops on June 18th
