Disney Star Demi Lovato has quit the currently underway Jonas Brothers tour and checked into a treatment center, reports TMZ.
Sources tell TMZ that Demi's decision was partly prompted by a physical alteration that she got into recently with a female member of the tour.
Demi was the opening act of the three month, 56 gig tour spanning multiple countries.
She is reportedly seeking treatment for "emotional and physical issues," not any drug addiction.
In a statement to TMZ, Demi's rep said:
"Demi Lovato left her tour early this weekend in order to seek medical treatment for emotional and physical issues she has dealt with for some time."
"Demi has decided to take personal responsibility for her actions and seek help. She is doing just that."
"[Demi] regrets not being able to finish her tour, but is looking forward to getting back to work in the near future." Demi was earlier romantically linked with Joe Jonas. In March, Joe confirmed that he was dating Demi. However, the couple announced their split on May 24. Speaking about their breakup to People magazine, Joe had said: "Demi and I knew going into our romantic relationship that it may not be an easy one. I realize over the time we have shared together that I feel I care more about our friendship right now. It was my choice to break up but I love her as a friend. She's been there for me when I needed her. I will continue to be her friend and be there for her." Demi was quizzed on her current relationship with Joe in the context of their tour together when she appeared on Fox & Friends on August 18, two days ahead of her 18th birthday. "Well… we started off as best friends and then we took it to the next level and it didn't work out," Demi explained of her relationship with Joe. "It wasn't meant to be but we're back to being best friends."
