News broke on Thursday that Lovato and Ehrich, who apparently began dating in March, had ended their two-month engagement. A source close to the "Sorry Not Sorry" singer confirmed the reports to Insider, though Lovato herself has yet to explicitly address the breakup.
"It was a tough decision, but Demi and Max have decided to go their separate ways to focus on their respective careers," a source told People.
People also reports that Lovato initiated the breakup because she began to question Ehrich's "intentions."
"It was very hurtful to Demi when she realized that Max's intentions weren't genuine," an anonymous source told the magazine. "Breaking off the engagement was not an easy decision."
Many fans have speculated that Ehrich was interested in using Lovato to boost his own
At the time, Lovato claimed the tweets were fake. She has since scrubbed her Instagram of all photos with her ex-fiancé.
″It was hard for Demi to admit she made a mistake when it came to Max," a source told People.
