Personal Life:
Ariana has been linked to The Hunger Games‘ Josh Hutcherson, with whom she has a very close friendship, but both parties have denied romantic attachment. Rumors of a fling with 13 castmate and music partner Graham Phillips started in 2008 and continue on- having never been denied. In 2009, Ariana dated iCarly‘s Nathan Kress. They called it quits after only a few dates. She also had a short-lived relationship with The Wanted’s Nathan Sykes from Sept. 2013 to Dec. 2013. In October 2014, Ariana began dating Big Sean, and they split in April 2015. Following the breakup, she got together with her backup dancer, Ricky Alvarez, and when that ended in July 2016, she started dating Mac Miller. They broke up in 2018, which she blamed on the toxicity of their relationship. She has since been linked to Saturday Night Live cast member Pete Davidson.
