Okay, well, 'that'didn't last long. Just a couple of days later, Arianachatted to Michael Stahan on Good Morning America (with Pete by her side for support, duh)and she dished more than a few deets on their love story.
Speaking about their pending nuptials, she told the host:"It's not 'soon', soon. It's going to be like, next year."Considering they had only been together for four months at this point, "next year" is still quite''soon for most couples, but it's certainly no surprise coming from Pete and Ari.
Perhaps she'll walk down the aisle to Mr. Davidson on their one-year anniversary?
September 2018
Promotion on Ariana's fourth album'sweetener'hit the brakes when her ex-boyfriend Mac Miller tragically died, leading the pop superstar to take some indefinite time away from the spotlight.

And before you ask "Will that be Pete's next tattoo?", Mr. Davidson is already one step ahead of everyone as he got a portrait of their beloved pet, who isnamed Piggy Smallz (the 'z' is crucial), tattooedwithin days of adopting it with Ari.

Ariana and Pete are reported to have called off their engagement and split up, with claims that the death of Ariana's ex Mac Miller was the 'breaking point'.

"You know, I don't even get royalties for that 'Pete Davidson' song? Like, if we break up, and we won't—we will—but we won't. I'm kidding. But like in ten years if God forbid that ever happened, there will be a song called 'Pete Davidson' like playing in speakers at K-Mart and I'll be working there," he said.
