Nearly two months after Demi Lovato was hospitalized for an apparent overdose her mother, Dianna de la Garza, appeared on Tuesday’s episode of Newsmax TV and opened up about that tragic day.

“It’s still a really difficult thing to talk about,” she said. “I literally start to shake a little bit when I start to remember what happened that day.”

De la Garza recalled getting bombarded with text messages from loved ones expressing their concern and well-wishes for the singer. Still, the matriarch didn’t know what was going on. It wasn’t until she received a call from Lovato’s assistant, Kelsey Kershner, that she learned the truth.

“So, I was in shock. I didn’t know what to say,” she recalled. “It was just something that I never, ever expected to hear, as a parent, about any of my kids.”

When she asked if her daughter was OK, the assistant told the worried parent the “Confident” singer was conscious but not speaking.

“I knew at that point that we were in trouble,” she said.

Lovato was hospitalized for the overdose back in July. The news came just a few weeks after the Grammy nominee released “Sober”—a song in which she apologized for breaking her sobriety. She had also celebrated six years of sobriety in March.

After news of the hospitalization broke, several celebrities shared their hopes and prayers for Lovato on social media, including Ellen DeGeneres and Joe Jonas. Her ex, Wilmer Valderrama, also rushed to be by her side. It wasn’t until her rep spoke out that fans learned Lovato was “awake with her family.”

Then, in August, Lovato broke her silence in an open letter to her fans.

“I have always been transparent about my journey with addiction,” part of her letter read. “What I’ve learned is that this illness is not something that disappears or fades with time. It is something I must continue to overcome and have not done yet.”

It’s true that Lovato has always been open with her fans about her struggles with drug and alcohol addiction, as well as with her history of eating disorders and self-harm. She underwent rehab in 2010 at the age of 18.

The couple did some sightseeing after flying in for Baldwin’s catwalk show during London Fashion Week, and were also spotted near the London Eye.

Last week, it was rumoured that Bieber and Baldwin had secretly married after they were seen in a New York City courthouse.

The model denied the rumours on Twitter in a now deleted tweet in which she wrote: “I understand where the speculation is coming from, but I’m not married yet!”

But on the red carpet for Monday’s Emmy Awards, Alec Baldwin was asked about his niece’s engagement and said they are already husband and wife. “They just went off and got married,” the actor told Access. The rumours of the couple’s marriage come two months after the pair got engaged in the Bahamas.
