Busting bad dish!

Demi Lovato Dad’s Claim He Spoke to Her in Rehab is Phone-y

Truth rating: 2

(RadarOnline.com)

“EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Demi Lovato Calls Her Dad From Rehab,” reads a headline on RadarOnline.

The generally solid site then reports that Lovato “is doing well according to her father Patrick Lovato, who recently spoke to the young star over the phone.”

In the interview Patrick Lovato gave to RadarOnline, the estranged father of the performer says, “Demi’s doing great, she’s such a strong girl.”

He even claims, “She told me she loved me, she really loves her daddy… She told me she’s getting better.”

At one point during his interview with the site, Patrick Lovato says, “Bless [Demi’s] heart. She’s always been an honest person, what can I say?”

For starters, he can say that he’s not being entirely honest, and that he did NOT speak to his daughter in rehab.

A source close to the singer-actress tells Gossip Cop that Patrick’s claim about speaking to Demi in rehab is “untrue,” and feels RadarOnline got “suckered.”

It’s bad enough she can’t quietly work on her issues, but for her own father to create more is unconscionable.

    Mr. Lovato is gonna make everyone in Demi’s family furious if he has not already. This is not fair to Demi or her family to tell you the truth when she is getting the help she needs right now.

    I thought Disney had forbid anyone to talk to the media about Demi and her treatment? With him doing this, he’s causing people to not leave them alone. She’s trying to get the help she needs and with a attention hungry father running around telling false stories is not making it any better for her or her family. Just let her quietly get the help that she needs and then when she gets out if she wants to talk about it then fine, until then keep it your mouth shut about your daughter.
