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