Selena Gomez on Demi Lovato friendship: 'We fell apart for a while'

'Come & Get It' beauty Selena Gomez has revealed that when good friend Demi Lovato needed treatment for substance abuse issues and an eating disorder, she was unsure how to help so their relationship 'fell apart'. 

Speaking to Seventeen magazine recently about their friendship, she explained that it was a tough time and they lost touch for a little while:

"We did fall apart for a while. She was going through things and I was so young and it was confusing."

She added that they have restored their faith in each other and she's so happy to class Lovato as one of her great friends again now: "I processed it saying, 'OK, I don't understand what she's going through so I'm just going to do this.' I don't think it was fair, and I'm so happy that I have her back in my life now."

Gomez also recently opened up about the importance of females supporting each other and said: "Some girls will drop you in five seconds for the right guy. That's not how it's supposed to be. That's why I love Demi and Taylor -- they support females and love to have that empowerment! I wish girls would stop hurting each other."
