Demi Lovato and Wilmer
Valderramatook the world by surprise with news of
their split on Friday, but people close to the pair say this
was actually a longtime coming.
After dating for nearly six years, the couple called it quits last week.
While the documentary covers all of the ups and
downs about Lovato's life (from her early stages of depression through her
growing fame and her struggles with drug abuse), the show takes a turn when she
pauses to talk about Valderrama.
Demi thoughtfully begins, "I've never loved anyone like I loved
Wilmer," and it just becomes more heatbreaking from there.
She says,
I've never
loved anybody like I loved Wilmer, and like, I still love Wilmer. When I first
met Wilmer he was 29. I met him on January 11 of 2010, and it was at a PSA
shoot at his house for the 2010 census forms. To be honest, I only did it
because I heard it was at his house and I thought he was really cute. I didn't
really care about the census forms. But [when] I met him and I laid eyes on him
for the first time, I was in hair and makeup and he came in and sat down and I
was like 'I love this man' and 'I have to have him.' But I was only 17, so he
was like, 'Get away from me.' After I turned 18, we began dating. I think it
was love at first sight, and I don't really believe in that, but I believe that
it happened.
It had nothing
to do with falling out of love. We decided together that we're probably just
better as friends. I do have moments where it's late at night and I'm
lonely and I wonder if I made the right decision, because love is a gamble. I
don't know if I'll lose him for the rest of my life.
I think my
heart is always with Wilmer. I think it was with Wilmer. I think that it is
with Wilmer, and I think that it will be... You don't share six years of your
life with somebody and not give them a piece of your heart, and visa versa.
Like, I'm pretty sure I'm not going to meet anybody that compares to him, but
I'm trying to keep an open heart and open mind when it comes to that. I'm
growing up, by myself, and to have my own place designed the way that I want it
to look, with my dog... I wanted to know what it's like to be on my own... and
this is where I finally feel like I can be grown up.
