Months after announcing their engagement, singer Demi Lovato and actor Max Ehrich have split.
People reported that, according to an unnamed source close to the situation, the decision to call off their engagement was a hard one.
“It was a tough decision, but Demi and Max have decided to go their separate ways to focus on their respective careers," the source said. “They have respect and love for one another and will always cherish the time they spent together.”
The couple announced their engagement in July.
“I knew I loved you the moment I met you," she captioned a July 23 Instagram post. “It was something I can’t describe to anyone who hasn’t experienced it firsthand but luckily you did too.. I’ve never felt so unconditionally loved by someone in my life (other than my parents) flaws and all. You never pressure me to be anything other than myself.”
The news of the break up comes after Lovato responded to what she called fake tweets that showed Ehrich praising Selena Gomez over her.
“It’s really sad when people FAKE images to put women against each other. If women have conflict that’s between them NOT YOU,” she wrote on Instagram.
“Yes, it’s easier to tear apart celebrities and their relationships because 2020 sucks and scares the (expletive) out of us all but it’s only gonna stay terrifying until we address it all and WORK ON SOLUTIONS TOGETHER," she added.
“So while on one hand I understand and have compassion for those who are so horrified at the reality of 2020 that they gotta distract themselves with doctored images in order to not focus on how bad these times are—but on the other hand, if you aren’t 13 years old trying to grasp the reality of right now, put on your adult underpants and write about what actually matters," she continued. "Please.”
E! News reported that Lovato’s fans began to suspect a split when those in the singer’s inner circle unfollowed Ehrich on Instagram.
The couple was first reported as dating in March. The relationship appeared to move fast and they were engaged months later.
