What Really Happened Between Demi Lovato And Ryan Phillippe

Back in 2011, word on the street was Demi Lovato and Ryan Phillippe hooked up. Lovato was 18 and Phillippe was 36 at the time, but the wide age gap didn't seem to stop the two from seeing each other — according to one insider. "It was really hot and heavy for a while," a source told E! News. It was unclear whether their relationship eventually turned into romance, but the insider claimed to Us Weekly that they indeed hooked up. They pointed out that Lovato and Phillippe were "just hooking up" and "it was nothing serious."

But another source dispelled the dating rumors to People. "This is not true. He's totally single," they said. Additionally, many think that Lovato shied away from pursuing anything serious with Phillippe when they found out that he was involved in a paternity case with ex-girlfriend Alexis Knapp. "It kind of threw her for a loop," a source claimed.

Ultimately, Lovato put the rumors to rest when they told the press that their focus was solely on music. Per Digital Spy, the Disney star-turned-singer denied that they were romantically involved with Phillippe. "No. It's all random stuff," they said at the HTC Status Phone Launch Party. But a few years later, the rumors bubbled back up.
