Ariana Grande vows to stay single in 2019 and 'probably my life'
Ariana Grande has vowed to stay single throughout 2019 and “probably my life” after a year that has been beset by troubles.
The US pop star, 25, endured a tumultuous 2018, which included the death of her ex-boyfriend Mac Miller in September and the ending of her engagement with comedian Pete Davidson in October after seven months of dating.
On New Year’s Day, Grande said on Twitter she will not be dating anyone else this year.
Replying to a fan who posted an article titled, “Who is Ariana dating now?!”, Grande said: “spoiler for the rest of this year/probably my life: it’s no one. please refer back to this tweet for future questions.”
