Pete Davidson Slams Body Shaming of Ex-Fiancée Ariana Grande
Davidson weighed in on the online harassment of his ex, while giving a status update on their relationship.
In a recent interview with Variety, comedian Pete Davidson criticized the online criticism faced by his ex-fiancée, Ariana Grande. The pair was engaged in 2018, but their relationship ended by the end of October of that year. Davidson expressed his disapproval of the harassment Grande has endured, stating "I don’t like it at all.
It’s not cool. She’s a really strong person — I’ve witnessed it — and I don’t understand it." The commentary escalated after the release of Grande's "Petal" music video, which led her to take a break from the public eye in August. Despite their breakup occurring around the same time as the sudden passing of her ex-boyfriend, Mac Miller, Grande chose to channel her emotions into her music, eventually releasing the Billboard 200 topping album Thank U, Next.
Davidson acknowledged her strength and talent, adding that she'll be just fine, but expressed his belief that the criticism is wrong.
