Demi Lovato’s New Fiance Ties Her to New Jersey

Max Ehrich, Demi Lovato's fiance, is not only a dancer, actor, and Emmy Award winner, he's also a native of the Garden State.

Admittedly, I didn't know much about Max until he started dating Demi, I just knew that I was really happy for her because she seemed in love and in a much healthier place. It was only two years ago she nearly lost her life to a drug overdose.

So, I did some digging. And it turns out Max Ehrich is from Marlboro Township in Monmouth County! The son of an environmental protection manager and a middle school teacher, Max began acting at the age of 13, so there isn't much info on if he graduated high school locally.

By 2009, he was dancing alongside Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens in High School Musical 3, and by 2013 he'd won a Daytime Emmy Award for playing Fenmore Baldwin on the CBS soap opera The Young and The Restless.

Just last year, Max waded into the music waters, recording two singles.

He and Demi Lovato had been dating for a year when last month Ehrich proposed to her. So, I can't help but wonder if maybe there's a TINY chance the couple could be getting married in New Jersey? Nah, probably not. Not with their millions, lol. They can probably fly their families to anywhere in the world that they want to get hitched.

When I was a little girl, my birth dad always called me his “little partner” - something that might’ve sounded strange without his southern cowboy like accent. To me it made perfect sense. And today that word makes perfect sense again but today I’m officially going to be someone else’s partner. @maxehrich - I knew I loved you the moment I met you. It was something I can’t describe to anyone who hasn’t experienced it firsthand but luckily you did too.. I’ve never felt so unconditionally loved by someone in my life (other than my parents) flaws and all. You never pressure me to be anything other than myself. And you make me want to be the best version of myself. I’m honored to accept your hand in marriage. I love you more than a caption could express but I’m ecstatic to start a family and life with you. I love you forever my baby. My partner. Here’s to our future!!!! ❤️ Ps. THANK YOU @angelokritikos FOR HIDING BEHIND ROCKS AND CAPTURING THE ENTIRE THING!!! I love you boo!!!
