Grande posted an additional tweet, writing: "Some of the s--- I read on here makes me sick to my stomach. It scares me the way some people think and I don't like this world a lot of the time. If only we could be more compassionate and gentle with one another. That'd be sick."

Grande and Miller began dating in 2016, and news of their split was revealed in May 2018. The pair remained on amicable terms following their breakup.
After Miller died of an accidental overdose in September (due to fentanyl, alcohol, and cocaine), Grande took to social media to share a tribute to the rapper.
Since then, she's continued to honor the "My Favorite Part" singer. In early November, she thanked a fan for sharing an old video of Miller listening to the song "R.E.M." from her "Sweetener" album.
Most recently, the 25-year-old included a lyric about him on her new song, "Thank U, Next."
"Wish I could say 'Thank you' to Malcolm / 'Cause he was an angel," Grande sings on the track.
