So, in case you missed it, Demi Lovato and Max Ehrich recently ended their engagement.

The pair got engaged in July after four months of dating.

The two were initially relatively quiet about the whole breakup — Max posted a cryptic quote, while Demi posted a ringless selfie.

They also both deleted photos of each other from their Instagram pages at some point.

That is, until Max took to his Instagram story to claim that he only heard about the breakup from "a tabloid."

And it was apparently in the midst of shooting his upcoming movie, Southern Gospel.

He then posted a video of himself seemingly getting baptized by the movie's director, who's also a pastor in Florida.

Meanwhile, Demi posted a series of Instagram stories of herself watching UFC and eating Taco Bell.

I know which one I am in a breakup.

THEN People magazine published an article claiming that, according to a source, Max knew the relationship was over before it hit the press.

Mess, mess, mess.

Which was followed by another Instagram story from Max, doubling down that he heard about the "ending of the engagement" from a tabloid:

Max saying, "I was on the set of my new movie, Southern Gospel, with crew and cast members right next to me who literally watched me open my phone where I then opened a tabloid."
