Demi Lovato discovered some unfortunate news on Wednesday morning (July 1).
“I woke up to the news that my grandfather Perry passed away early this morning,” the singer wrote on Instagram along with a photo of her grandfather and another in which he is kissing her on the cheek at an event.
“He has been sick for a couple of years, so even though I am relieved that he is not in pain, it still hurts to think that our family will not be able to say goodbye with a proper funeral for a while,” she continued. “But that’s the reality during this pandemic. This man loved God FIERCELY and was one of the best preachers I’ve ever had the honor of witnessing spreading the word of God. I love you Grandpa. I’m sorry I didn’t take more pictures together but I have so many memories that make me smile until we meet again one day. Rest easy. I love you. “
Lovato’s life over the past three years will be documented in a new YouTube series, which will serve as a follow-up to her original YouTube documentary 2017, Just complicated.
