Demi Lovato Says Husband Jutes Helped Her Through Early‑Sobriety Depression

She frames the Holy Fvck writing sessions after rehab as the moment a friendship rooted in recovery evolved into her marriage.

Overview

  • In a new Who What Wear interview reported Nov. 19–20, Lovato says she met Jordan “Jutes” Lutes during January 2022 sessions for Holy Fvck that followed a 2021 rehab stay.
  • They co-wrote “Substance,” “Happy Ending” and “City of Angels,” and she recalls the “Happy Ending” session as the point she felt safe with him.
  • Lovato describes being newly sober and “raw” with no coping substances, crediting Jutes with first supporting her as a friend through a deep depression.
  • She calls Holy Fvck her most healing project and says therapeutic work helped her recognize why past relationships failed.
  • The couple married in May 2025, and Jutes has recently said Lovato’s backing was crucial to his own sobriety early on.
