There was a time when Demi Lovato was in depression. But she credits Jordan Jutes, her husband, for helping her through one of her tough times.
In an interview with Who What Wear, the pop icon recalls the toughest time she faced while making her 2023 album, Holy Fvck.
“Every album I’ve written has served its purpose. Some albums were more emotional than others,” says the Heart Attack hitmaker, noting that she began working on the album after her rehab in 2021. “Holy Fvck was probably, dare I say it, the most healing, and it served its purpose.”
Along the way, Jutes was also involved. Together, the pair wrote several songs on the album, including Substance, happy ending, and City of Angels.
“We became friends before we became lovers,” she reveals. “I opened up to him because I was going through a really tough time when I was making Holy Fvck.”
The award-winning artist continues, “I had just come out of treatment and I was newly sober and raw with my emotions. I had nothing to medicate,” adding that the Jutes “were there for me like a friend, helping me get through this deep depression I was in.”
Furthermore, Demi also looks back on her past relationships, adding that they didn’t work out because she “hadn’t taken care of myself yet.”
“The universe rewards you when you do the therapeutic work with yourself, [and] I had to do the work.”
“Because of that, the universe gave it. I prepared myself for a life alone, and then I could share it with someone else,” she concludes.
