Demi Lovato ‘hurt’ when she realised Max Ehrich’s ‘intentions weren’t genuine’

Singer Demi Lovato was reportedly shocked and hurt to learn that ex-fiancé Max Ehrich’s “intentions weren’t genuine”.

The former Disney star, 28, had gotten engaged to The Young and Restless actor Max on July 23, but the pair called off their engagement earlier this month.

Now an insider told People: “It was very hurtful to Demi when she realized that Max’s intentions weren’t genuine.”

The source went on to add: “Breaking off the engagement was not an easy decision.”

A different source told the publication that the pair had been together “24/7 for months” during the early days of their relationship.

They added that Demi and Max had lived in a “bubble with zero stress and everything was just fun”.

It was added that the troubles began as Max’s career in Hollywood began to take off, which the insider claims Demi now believes was his motivation for getting into a relationship with her.

They claim she thinks Max was “trying to further his career by using her name behind her back”.

Mirror Online has reached out to representatives of Demi Lovato and Max Ehrich for comment.

On Sunday, Max hit out on social media at reports that Demi had contacted him to end their relationship.

Max penned on his Instagram Stories: “Up to this moment we haven’t spoken over the phone… we haven’t even officially ended anything to each other.

“Literally. I’m here in real time with y’all. I love Demetria and just want her to be healthy and safe.’

He then added: “If you’re reading this … I love you always…. unconditionally… not matter what”.

Max then directed her fans to listen to her single It’s OK Not To Be OK.

He added: “Give her the Grammy she deserves!”

Max continued: “Demetria is THEE best female voalist alive. And everyone should know it.’

“She inspires me every day and is an INCREDIBLE human being. I know it’s not her writing these stories.

“It’s a machine. I love her unconditionally. Demetria I love you always and forever.”

It had previously been reported by an insider to People : “It was a tough decision, but Demi and Max have decided to go their separate ways to focus on their respective careers.

“They have respect and love for one another and will always cherish the time they spent together.”
