The Truth About Demi Lovato's Fiancé

If anyone deserves love it's Demi Lovato! The star has struggled with her sobriety and an eating disorder in a brave public way (via Harper's Bazaar). Now, the 27-year-old is planning her forever with a man she swears she experienced love at first sight with: Max Ehrich. Lovato says the actor accepts her for exactly who she is, and that is officially a wife-to-be!

But who is the relatively-unknown 29-year-old? According to People, Ehrich is an actor who starred on the soap opera The Young and the Restless as Fenmore Baldwin. According to Us Weekly, he appeared in 100 episodes of the longtime CBS staple. 

The engagement took place in Malibu, California, where Ehrich popped the question with a diamond ring that is reportedly 5 carats, and may be worth a jaw-dropping $300,000. Meanwhile, according to Page Six, the couple only dated for four months before getting engaged.

Lovato's husband-to-be also sings just like his famous love, and previously dated Modern Family actress Sarah Hyland, who is now engaged to The Bachelor's Wells Adams (via People). One of Ehrich's first big breaks was appearing as a dancer in High School Musical 3. On Instagram, Ehrich, who hails from New Jersey, shares he has been nominated for four Emmy awards. According to IMDb, the newly-engaged star has appeared in films such as Walk. Ride. Rodeo, and the TV show American Princess.

According to a source, "Her family really likes him." That bodes well for the couple's future! Meanwhile, Ehrich beamed on Twitter about his soon-to-be bride, writing, "I LOVE YOU SO MUCH @ddlovato AND WILL FOREVER CHERISH YOUR PURE, BEAUTIFUL, INFINITE SOUL." Adorably, Ehrich reportedly has been a longtime fan of Lovato, tweeting about this love for her as far back as 2011, according to Page Six: "All I wanted for Christmas was Demi Lovato. #cantalwaysgetwhatyouwant." Or maybe, eventually you can.
