Jai Brooks
Jai Brooks accused Ariana Grande of cheating on him.
The long list of cheating accusations by Grande's exes started following her split from Jai Brooks.
The "dangerous woman" singer and the MTV star sparked a romantic relationship in August 2012 following their meeting through Twitter, now X. Things turned sour when Brooks made a shocking revelation in 2013 that Grande allegedly cheated on him.
However, the 30-year-old songstress denied the allegations.
"Woke up this morning in complete and utter shock," she tweeted. "I guess I shouldn't be so surprised. You said to me if I didn't come back to you, you'd make me look bad to the entire world. I'm no longer afraid of you or your lies anymore."
They resumed their complicated relationship in May 2014, only to break up for good four months later.
Nathan Sykes
Nathan Sykes appeared with The Wanted in 'The Wanted Life.'

After her final breakup with Brooks, Grande was spotted kissing Big Sean at The Grove in Los Angeles, Calif., following a series of public appearances together.
Sources said they were friends and only spending some time together, but their relationship bloomed and turned romantic.
After nearly nine months of dating, the duo confirmed they parted ways for good in a joint statement to Page Six.
"They both deeply care for each other and remain close friends," the message read. "We kindly ask that the media respect their wish for privacy regarding this personal matter at this time."

The duo collaborated on the song "The Way" in 2016 and started dating afterward. However, their busy and conflicting schedules took a toll on their relationship, causing them to break things off between them.
A few months after their breakup, Miller died following an accidental overdose at the age of 26.

Following their respective breakups with their former partners, Grande and Pete Davidson struck up a whirlwind romance. The Saturday Night Live alum confirmed their relationship in an Instagram post in May 2018 and popped the question with a $93,000 diamond ring a month later.
However, their relationship ended as quickly as they started it because they thought "it was too early" for them to take their romance to the next level.
Davidson shared a message during an interview with Paper a month after their split.
"I don't ever make public statements about relationships 'cause I just don't think it's right, you know? I usually express how I feel about anything through work. So I hope she's well. I hope she's very happy. And that's pretty much it. And print doesn't usually age well."

Social House member Mikey Foster joined Grande's Sweetener tour and collaborated with her in the music video for "Boyfriend" in August 2019.
