Demi Lovato and Max Ehrich are flirting up a storm on social media – and seriously sparking dating rumors while they’re at it.
According to Us Weekly, the “I Love Me” songstress and The Young And The Restless star “met a few weeks ago.” It looks like these two totally hit it off because fans have had a front row seat to their flirty exchanges on Instagram.
Earlier this month, when Max posted a video of himself on the piano doing a cover of “Let Me Love You” by Mario captioned, “to my <3″, Demi commented, “🥺❤️”
On Tuesday (March 24), he posted another cover – this time singing Coldplay’s “Yellow,” which was captioned with a cryptic, “4D🌹<3.” Many fans are interpreting “4D” to be “For Demi.”
Like many of us, Demi is quarantining at home amid the coronavirus outbreak- but sources are saying her new beau may be keeping her company.
“Demi and Max have been seeing each other for a few weeks now,” a source told E!. “They have been quarantining together at Demi’s house and it’s going really well.”
And there have been hints! Earlier this month, the two were spotted picking up groceries together in Los Angeles, presumably getting ready for the quarantine.
Then, Max shared a shirtless pic of himself, writing, “when u realize u should’ve packed more for your quarantine stay 😅🤦♂️ have a blessed Monday filled with health, happiness, safety, joy, love, & laughter <3,” to which Demi replied, “Fine by me…” And Max responded to that with a smirk emoji face and a red heart.
Plus, he also posted photos of Demi’s dogs Cinderella and Batman on his Instagram Story?
Is this proof that they’re totally an item?
But looks like Demi’s not the only one who’s found new romance.
Apparently, Ariana Grande has been dating on the DL for the past couple of months.
According to multiple outlets, Ari has been dating a non-showbiz guy – Los Angeles luxury real estate agent Dalton Gomez, who also appears to be the same guy Ari was seen kissing back at a bar back in February. Oh, and BTW, she happens to be following him on Instagram, too!
It looks like they’re quarantining together, as well – fans have noticed him popping up on Ari’s IG Stories.

Ari’s and Demi’s manager, Scooter Braun, who also manages Justin Bieber and Kanye West, recently chatted with Ashley Graham on her Pretty Big Deal podcast, where he opened up about signing Demi on as a new client.
Scooter said he knew Demi definitely had something special when he got to meet her, but wanted to make sure his clients are okay with her joining them.
“I said I’ll take the meeting, but I’m not going to do this we have too much going on. And I met her and I said, ‘I have to do this. She’s special. I want to do it,'” he recalled. “I told her I need to speak to the two big solo females we represent because I want to make sure they are OK with this.”
He said spoke with Tori Kelly, who had no issues with him signing Demi. He then urged Ari to meet with Demi in person to discuss it.
“Demi and Ariana went for coffee, and Ariana called me and said, ‘You have to do this. I want her with us. She’s in our family. She’ll be protected, she’s my friend. I want her with us. I want you to help her,'” he recalled. “And I just thought that was really, really cool and very different from what you expect in today’s music industry.”
And apparently, Ari’s a big fan of Demi’s new songs.
“We did a listening party with Demi of some of the songs with Ariana. Ariana was giving notes and saying how excited she is,” Scooter said. “It’s really, really nice when everyone’s encouraging each other.”
He also teased about Demi’s upcoming album, saying it’s “the most honest she’s ever been.”
“I told her, ‘Look, there’s no judgement here. Health, happiness are the most important thing,'” he said. “We had this conversation, and I think she knows she’s completely safe to do whatever she wants. It’s vulnerable and amazing.”
