Ariana Grande has paid a touching tribute to the youngest victim of the Manchester attack.

The singer took to Twitter to tell Saffie Roussos that she was thinking of her after what would have been her ninth birthday.

‘Saffie, we’re [thinking] of you baby,’ she wrote to her 48 million followers.

While Saffie’s hometown also made sure to pay tribute, as hundreds of people gathered to mark the occasion and celebrate her life.

Her sister Ashlee added that she was one of Ari’s biggest fans: “She was Ariana Grande-obsessed. She was so happy, she was elated all night, grinning.”

Following the bombing on May 22 Ariana put on charity concert One Love Manchester to raise money for the victims and their families, with Manchester thanking her by giving her the first ever honorary citizenship of the city.

Happy Birthday Saffie <3.
