Demi Lovato’s real dad Patrick Lovato
Sadly, he passed away from cancer in 2013, a moment Demi admits she was conflicted about. She said, “I was very conflicted when he passed, because he was abusive. He was mean, but he wanted to be a good person.
"And he wanted to have his family, and when my mom married my stepdad, he still had this huge heart where he said, 'I’m so glad that [he's] taking care of you and doing the job that I wish I could do.'"
Demi’s father suffered with mental illness and alcohol abuse.
