Source says Ariana Grande and Pete Davidson’s split was imminent
Singer Ariana Grande and “Saturday Night Live” star Pete Davidson shocked fans when they reportedly broke off their engagement over the weekend, but those close to the power couple knew a split was imminent.
Pete Davidson says that no matter how much he’s bullied, he would never take his own life.
"I've kept my mouth shut," he wrote in a lengthy Instagram post on Monday. "Never mentioned any names, never said a word about anyone or anything. I'm trying to understand how when something happens to a guy the whole entire world just trashes him without any facts or frame of reference. Especially in today's climate where everyone loves to be offended and upset it truly is mind-boggling."
Davidson, who split from fiancé Ariana Grande in October, added that he's been bullied online and in public for nine months.
"I've spoken about [borderline personality disorder] and being suicidal publicly only in the hopes that it will help bring awareness and help kids like myself who don't want to be on this earth," he continued. "I just want you guys to know. No matter how hard the internet or anyone tries to make me kill myself. I won't. I'm upset I even have to say this."
He ended the note by thanking all the people who have been supporting him.
"To all those holding me down and seeing this for what it is – I see you and I love you," he wrote.
Davidson broke his silence about his breakup last month while co-hosting a benefit with Judd Apatow.
"Well, as you could tell, I don't want to be here. There's a lot going on," he said. "Does anybody have any open rooms? Looking for a roommate?"
Davidson opened up to Variety about his struggle with borderline personality disorder in August, revealing he tried to drown himself after his father passed away in the 9/11 attacks.
