Demi Lovato announced her great-grandmother has passed away with a touching tribute.
The 23-year-old singer posted a cute black and white snap of herself cuddled up in a bed with the matriarch of her family on Sunday.
Along with the photo was a heartfelt caption which began: 'This morning I lost my world and the world's most special woman. I miss her more than words can even describe.
'There is an emptiness in my heart that only her spirit can fill and I pray that I will feel her by my side every single day until we meet again. I attribute my strength to her.. She held on when she lost the love of her life.. The one she was married to for 53 years. '
She went on to describe how her great-grandmother had lost a son this year and that despite the heartbreak, she told everyone in their family that she loved them even when a stroke left her unable to speak properly.
Demi continued: 'The smile that she had not only could light up a whole room but it most definitely lit up the entire nursing home. She was my great-grandmother but we were so close that I never knew it was possible that anyone could have the bond that we shared even 70 years a part.
'The pain I feel is almost unbearable but because of her strength I will power through it. The love and support I have received has been empowering and so special to me.. I love all of you so much and I am forever grateful for the prayers, texts and fan art my Lovatics have made me. Thank you.'
