Pete Davidson Confirms Relationship With Ariana Grande In New Photo
May 27 2019, Updated 5:43 p.m. ET
The worst-kept relationship secret is out. Saturday Night Live star Pete Davidson has finally admitted to dating Ariana Grande by posting a sweet photo of the new couple.
“The chamber of secrets has been opened,” Davidson captioned an Instagram picture of the pair wearing Harry Potter robes.
Davidson and Ariana, both 24, have known each since at least 2016, when the singer hosted his famous sketch comedy show.
The shocking romance began just days after she dumped boyfriend Mac Miller, and soon after he ended his relationship with longtime girlfriend Cazzie David, daughter of Larry David.
Miller, who dated the “No Tears Left To Cry” singer, has had a tough time dealing with the breakup and was arrested for driving under the influence and fleeing the scene after he crashed his car in Los Angeles on May 17, 2018.
Ever since rumors of their budding romance spread, the singer and comedian have been receiving backlash, especially from fans who say Grande shouldn’t be dating someone who admits to suffering from Borderline Personality Disorder.
But Davidson was quick to fire back at his haters on Instagram:
“Normally I wouldn’t comment on something like this cause like f**k you. But I been hearing a lot of ‘people with bpd can’t be in relationships’ talk. I just wanna let you know that’s not true,” Davidson wrote. “Just because someone has a mental illness does not mean they can’t be happy and in a relationship.
“It also doesn’t mean that person makes the relationship toxic. Everybody is different and there are a lot of treatments for mental illnesses and I have done/am doing all of them. And I encourage those who struggle to seek help as well it has changed my life for the better."
