Demi Lovato Announces Engagement to Max Ehrich : ‘God Brought Us Together’
“I’ve never felt so unconditionally loved by someone in my life (other than my parents) flaws and all,” says Lovato on Instagram. “You never pressure me to be anything other than myself.”
Demi Lovato is making it official with boyfriend Max Ehrich, sharing the news of their engagement in a beautiful Instagram post.
With photography by Angelo Kritikos, who Demi hilariously described as “hiding behind rocks and capturing the whole thing,” the newly-engaged songstress poured out her heart and her feelings for the man she says she fell in love with from the moment they first met.
“It was something I can’t describe to anyone who hasn’t experienced it firsthand but luckily you did too,” she wrote. “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. And you make me want to be the best version of myself,” she continued her heartfelt message.
She kicked off her message by sharing that her birth father always called her his “little partner.” She always thought the endearment made perfect sense, and she feels it now again, “but today I’m officially going to be someone else’s partner.”
“You are every love song, every film, every lyric, every poem, everything I could ever dream of and then some in a partner in life,” Max shared in his own Instagram post.
“Words cannot express how infinitely in love with you I am forever and always and then some,” he continued. “I cannot spend another second of my time here on Earth without the miracle of having you as my wife.”

Over on Demi’s post, Max was apparently at a loss for words, relying on emojis like hearts and rings and crying faces to express his feelings through several comments.
Angelo shared the pics via his own Instagram page, where he was likely the first person to publicly offer his congratulations to the happy couple.
The couple quickly got other words of congratulations and support from fans famous and not. Hailey Bieber followed Max’s lead with a series of heart and crying face emojis, while both Noah Cyrus and Jessie J wrote, “So happy for you.”

Demi and Max were first suspected to be a couple back in March, with media outlets reporting they were quarantining together and growing very close very fast. They made their relationship official, so to speak, in May by appearing together in Ariana Grande and Justin Bieber’s “Stuck With U” video.
Demi Lovato and Boyfriend Max Ehrich Are Engaged: ‘God Brought Us Together’
Demi Lovato is engaged!
The “I Love Me” singer’s boyfriend, former Young and the Restless actor Max Ehrich popped the question on Wednesday, less than four months after PEOPLE revealed they were dating.
Ehrich, 28, asked the singer to marry him in Malibu, California, with a stunning diamond ring by celebrity jeweler Peter Marco.
Sharing a series of photos taken shortly after Ehrich got down on one knee, Lovato, 27, opened up about saying “yes” to the man who made her want to “to be the best version” of herself.
“When I was a little girl, my birth dad always called me his “little partner” – something that might’ve sounded strange without his southern cowboy like accent. To me it made perfect sense. And today that word makes perfect sense again but today I’m officially going to be someone else’s partner,” the bride-to-be wrote.
“@maxehrich – I knew I loved you the moment I met you,” Lovato captioned the images. “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. And you make me want to be the best version of myself. I’m honored to accept your hand in marriage. I love you more than a caption could express but I’m ecstatic to start a family and life with you. I love you forever my baby. My partner. Here’s to our future!!!! 😩😭❤️🥰😍.”
Sharing similar images captured by photographer Angelo Kritikos, the actor explained he could not wait a moment longer without having the singer as his wife.
“Ahhhh 💍😭🥳💓 You are every love song, every film, every lyric, every poem, everything I could ever dream of and then some in a partner in life,” he captioned the photographs.
“Words cannot express how infinitely in love with you I am forever and always and then some. I cannot spend another second of my time here on Earth without the miracle of having you as my wife. here’s to forever baby 💍 ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh jeuejfjqjweuvu I’m so excited 😭😭😭 you are the most beautiful inside and out in the entire world & I couldn’t be more grateful God brought us together 🥳❤️ 🙃💍💍💍😭I LOVE YOU SO MUCH @ddlovato AND WILL FOREVER CHERISH YOUR PURE, BEAUTIFUL, INFINITE SOUL.”
While the pair have not been dating long, a source, tells PEOPLE the couple grew closer while social distancing together amid the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
The source says Ehrich knew very quickly he wanted to marry the singer but waited until her engagement ring’s custom setting was finished, adding that after two months “he already had the stone” and “it’s huge.”
In May, Lovato and Ehrich were among the many couples to be featured in the music video for Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande’s song “Stuck with U.” In the video, the pair share a romantic kiss — marking the first time Lovato publicly confirmed their relationship.
The pop star also posted about their music video appearance on her Instagram and her story, tagging her beau and sharing a series of heart-filled emojis. “This video was too f—ing cute. Beautifully written and icredibly sung. Congrats fam @arianagrande @justinbieber @scooterbraun @sb_projects,” she wrote in one of her Instagram story slides.
In the clip she shared on her Instagram grid hours after the music video dropped (making sure that followers cannot comment under the post), Lovato wrote, “Happy to be a part of something so special right now. Like really REALLY happy if you can’t tell… 🥰🥰🥰 #stuckwithu.”
On April 7, Ehrich appeared to acknowledge his and Lovato’s one-month anniversary of dating on Instagram, where he posted a video of himself nodding along and smiling to Sam Smith’s “To Die For” with the caption, “1 <3.”
Three days prior, the pair were spotted grocery shopping at Erewhon Market in Los Angeles. They wore masks and blue gloves as a measure to protect themselves from the coronavirus.
