Max Ehrich has doubled down on Demi Lovato split claims: 'I found out through a tabloid'

Max Ehrich has doubled down on his claims he learned about the end of his engagement to Demi Lovato on the internet.

The 29-year-old actor and the 'Anyone' singer were reported to have called time on their romance earlier this week, and on Friday (25.09.20), Max claimed on social media he had no idea about the breakup until he checked news articles online.

Following his claims, a source close to Demi, 28, insisted she definitely "made him aware" of her intent to move on from their relationship before the news was made public, but on Saturday (26.09.20) night, the actor released another statement refuting those claims.

His statement, which was posted to his Instagram Story, read: "I was on the set of my new movie, 'Southern Gospel', with crew and cast members right next to me who literally watched me open my phone where I then opened a tabloid.

"This is the God's honest truth of how I found out about the ending of the engagement and have people from my film who saw the whole thing go down and helped me get back into character to continue my job."
