emi Lovato is a warrior.
Ever since her accidental
overdose on July 24, 2018,
the “Confident” singer
has been working hard to
turn her life around. “Every day is
a constant struggle for Demi,” a
source tells Us, but “she’s remained
determined to lead a life of sobri-
ety and live her life to its fullest
potential, especially following the
f i r s t a n n i v e r s a r y o f h e r r e l a p s e. ”
DEMI 2.0 The 26-year-old star
— who first went to rehab at
18 — spends time kickboxing,
eating healthy and “surrounding
herself with supportive people” like
Wilmer Valderrama, who’s been
her rock during this dark time.
“She still really relies on Wilmer,”
reveals the source. “He’s been
right by her side and has
loved and cared for her for
so long now.” Lovato, who’s
open about her past struggles
with addiction, wants to
make sure she doesn’t end
up where she was a year
absolute best she can.”
