News broke yesterday that Ariana Grande and Pete Davidson have broken up and their engagement has officially been called off. Van Lathan of TMZ and “The Red Pill Podcast” called into Power 106’s JCruz’s “The Cruz Show” to give us some EXCLUSIVE details.
Ariana and Pete announced their engagement back in June just a few weeks after they were first reported to be dating. After the tragic death of her EX-boyfriend Mac Miller, Grande expressed on twitter that she she may going through a rough patch. She was recently tweeting a lot of personal messages seemingly toward Mac, and saying she needs a break from the public spotlight.

Now with news of the breakup people of course are saying Mac’s death may have had something to do with that. In our phone interview this morning Van tells us, “I think for her, what happened with Mac was probably just something that she needs some time alone to kind of chew over. Now we know that
sources close to both sides say, thats she’s just been really really dark place, she doesn’t blame herself she feels like she did everything she could to kind of help him out and get him through that time. But, everyone is still reeling from that and how close they were she’s taking it the hardest. She just needed to put things on pause for a second and kind of get her head right.”
The last time we saw the pair together was just last week and she was reportedly backstage this weekend at SNL and they two were affectionate. Van also said while things may be done for the couple for now, the two aren’t ruling out the possibility of anything in the future. Listen to the full audio below!
