This will be Grande’s first public appearance since her split from ex-fiancee Pete Davidson and since the death of her ex-boyfriend Mac Miller. Grande recently dropped out of an SNL performance in September and has been struggling since the news Miller’s death. Many fans were worried about Grande’s mental health and whether she would be in the right state of mind to perform for the Wicked special. However, with her most recent tweet fans are elated to learn that the singer still plans to perform and is hopefully getting well.
