Demi Lovato appeared on Good Morning America in New York City on Thursday to promote her new single, "Made in the U.S.A.," and she also chatted about her father's passing and the launch of her new project, the Lovato Treatment Scholarship Program.
“I’m handling it okay, my father and I didn’t have the most ideal relationship. But at the end of the day, he’s still my dad and I grew up with him and he’s a wonderful person. It’s difficult…I’m handling it okay,†Demi told Robin Roberts.
Demi added that her new charity will "help one person at a time," and she's working with CAST Recovery on the project. "My father dealt with mental illnesses and he wasn’t able to function in society and that happens to a lot of people," she added, also noting her own struggles.
Demi's new single hits the radio today, and she'll be performing as part of GMA's Summer Concert Series tomorrow!
