Ariana Grande on decision to withdraw from the public eye: 'Not a reactive or impulsive thing'
While on stage at Chicago’s United Center, Grande told her fans that “things can get a little blown out of proportion”, and that her decision to take a break from public life was one she had "quietly made a long time ago”, rather than a “reactive or impulsive thing”.
On August 3, Ariana Grande addressed her fans during her "Eternal Sunshine" tour in Chicago, revealing her decision to take a break from the public eye. The 33-year-old singer explained that this choice was not impulsive or reactive, but rather something she had quietly contemplated for an extended period. Grande emphasized that her decision was made from a place of thoughtfulness and empowerment, stating that many things can be true simultaneously.
She also addressed the speculation surrounding her health and appearance, noting that fans should know that boundaries need to be established and that breaks can be necessary for well-being. Grande's recent split from "Wicked" co-star Ethan Slater and the release of her album "Petal" have contributed to the online buzz about her personal life.
A representative for Grande confirmed that she will step back from visibility after completing the upcoming tour, which is set to conclude on September 1 in London. Despite the speculation, Grande expressed that she looks forward to concluding the tour on a positive note, both physically and emotionally, and taking the much-needed break from public appearances.
