In Lovato's 2017 documentary, \"Simply Complicated,\" they seemed to acknowledge their sexuality by saying they'd searched for both men and women on a dating app. This past October, during National Coming Out Day, they said they've known they liked girls since they were 17.

In March, on \"The Joe Rogan Experience\" podcast, Lovato came out as pansexual, saying, \"I’m so fluid now.\" That same month, referring to their broken engagement to actor Max Ehrich, Lovato told Entertainment Weekly they were \"just too queer\" and \"too gay\" to marry a man right now and they \"don't know if that'll ever change, but I love accepting myself.\"
