This just came in! Ariana Grande reportedly broke up with her on-and-off boyfriend Jai Brooks for the second time. The breakup followed the couple's reconciliation last May.
Just a month ago, Ariana, the "Problem" singer, shared a sweet photo of herself and her boyfriend on Instagram. But a source told E! Online.com that Ariana broke up with her boyfriend last month because he was not mature enough to be with her on the times she needed him the most.
"When her grandfather was dying, everyone was there for her. People flew to Florida to be with her, but Jai didn't. Ariana just felt he wasn't there like he should have," the source said.
The 21 year-old singer recently posted a note on August 4 on Twitter, which started off with, "You learn a lot about love, life and the people around you during a time of crisis."
Referring to the difficult time the "Bang Bang" singer and her family had went through with her grandfather's death, she said, "July was painful for many reasons but of all the personal loss I suffered last month, the loss of my grandfather, a true gentleman, was the only one that truly mattered. I thank my loves for being so in tune to what is good and right for me and my heart..."
Although the post echoed her sadness not only because of her loss, but also the demise of her relationship with the YouTube star, she ended it with a very positive note and added, "August is about to be a beautiful month. Looking forward to all the good coming up...it's the only thing we should focus on."
Ariana Grande's has remained mum about the couple's reported breakup.
The two had started dating on August 2012, and then broke up a year later. Reports about the two hooking up again on May started where they were spotted together at the iHeart Radio Music Awards following her performance.
