Disney star Demi Lovato, who recently entered rehab for "emotional and physical issues" isn't talking about the events that lead to her treatment. However, her father did comment on Demi's issues, infuriating Lovato's family.
According to reports, Demi Lovato's family are furious about comments made by Demi's estranged father, Patrick Lovato, just after Demi went to rehab to seek treatment.
Bang Showbiz claims that Demi Lovato's family insists Patrick Lovato "knows nothing" about Demi's current situation, and has been warned by Demi's reps to stop talking.
Patrick, who split with Lovato's mother in 1994 revealed that the pressure of being a teen star were too great for Demi to handle, which was a cause of worry when his daughter signed on to be a Disney Channel star.
Demi Lovato's reps told the New York Post, "No one speaks for Demi except for her designated representatives. Unfortunately, several people have taken it upon themselves to speak out - both on and off the record - about a situation they know nothing about."
"Poor Demi," said one local resident. "She can't escape the drama no matter where she is." What are your thoughts on Demi Lovato's rehab stay and family issues? Leave your comments below.

Poor girl. This kind of lack of support from her family is probably partly what went wrong in the first place. Although her father is probably accurate in saying that the fame hasn't helped either.
