The Real Reason Ariana Grande Has Been Hanging Out With Her Exes Lately

There’s apparently a very good reason for why Ariana Grande has been spending so much time in the company of her ex-boyfriends.

The singer has been spotted with Big Sean, Ricky Alvarez, and Graham Phillips in recent months - with insiders claiming that she’s determined to keep *all* her friendships strong and be totally at peace with the past. 

According to Us Weekly, the 25-year-old is determined to face the future with a clean slate and feels like the only way to do so is to get a bit of closure from her previous relationships.

“After ‘Thank U, Next’ came out, Ariana was really living her single life and being with her friends, learning about herself,” a source revealed. "But after a couple weeks, she was trying to figure out what went wrong with her past relationships.”

“She didn’t want any bad blood holding her back from the next phase of her life. She has reached out to her exes to have a positive place in her life right now and for peace of mind, so she can focus on herself and this tour, which is the only thing on her mind right now.”

As for rumours that she’ll be dating anyone in the coming months, Ariana took to Twitter in early January to joke that she’ll be single forever: “Spoiler for the rest of this year / probably my life: it’s no one. Please refer back to this tweet for future questions."

Good on Ariana for always leading from the heart. What a woman.
