8: Their Relationship

Their relationship was brief but affectionate, with Jon often expressing how much he adored Demi. He considered her his first significant love, but Demi didn’t reciprocate those deep feelings. She later admitted in her memoir that she barely remembered their romance, which Jon took in good humor.

While he was emotionally invested, Demi saw their relationship as something casual. The difference in their feelings became apparent over time. As Demi’s career accelerated, she had little time for a serious relationship. Jon, still young and inexperienced in Hollywood, wasn’t quite in the same fast-paced world as Demi.
