    Demi Lovato has helped Jordan 'Jutes' Lutes to navigate his sobriety battle

    The 33-year-old pop star and Jutes have both struggled with addiction over the years, and the 34-year-old singer has praised Demi for supporting him through his troubles.


    Jutes - who married Demi earlier this year - told People: "It's very, very helpful having the support of Demi.

    "Sadly I'm like, I don't know if I would have stuck with it if it wasn't for her, in the beginning. It's obviously the hardest in the beginning and there's still times ... it doesn't ever go away. There's still times where I'll be out and I'm like, 'This would be better if I wasn't sober.'

    "It does make me want to go out less now that I'm sober, but my life is just - it's not comparable how much better it is now that I am sober.

    "I mean, I love waking up early and feeding my dogs and meditating and having coffee and doing wholesome stuff and feeling good and going to the gym."

    In September, Demi explained that the "tone" of her life has become "lighter".

    The brunette beauty also explained how married life has changed her music.

    Demi told PAPER magazine: "I'm not in this place in my life where I need these huge emotional ballads. The tone of my life is lighter."

    Demi believes her most-recent album is a reflection of where she's at in her life.

    She said: "I think it's really a reflection of where I'm at personally. I'm not in this place in my life where I need these huge emotional ballads to release some sort of deep emotional trauma I'm going through.

    "I realised that when I started making this project. I started writing songs like that, and they just weren't resonating ... heavy topics like that. I'm in a place in my life where my energy feels very light.

    "I just got married. It was a learning curve for me to take what I've always known about music, which is write what you know now. I had to learn how to write what was new to me, and that's what this album is a reflection of. The tone of my life is lighter. I wanted a project that reflected that."
