Opening up about her right to grieve Miller — who died of an accidental overdose at the age of 26 on Sept. 7, according to the Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner-Coroner — Grande added that “everything i feel is valid and safe.”
“Everything i do is genuine and honest. there is no right or wrong during this period,” she continued before retweeting a supportive message from fellow singer and friend Halsey.
“Ari the world could only dream of being as compassionate and gentle as you. and since ur being, as always, so classy and nice, allow me the honor of telling them to shut the f— up,” Halsey, 24, wrote.
“I love you very much,” Grande wrote in response to the message.
Sharing one last thought for the night before signing off, Grande told her fans that she was “sending u all a s— ton of love.”

Grande has previously shared several tributes to her ex.
The day following Miller’s death, the singer posted a black-and-white photograph of the rapper, and a few days later, Grande shared a video of herself and Miller laughing together with the caption, “I adored you from the day I met you when i was nineteen and I always will.”
“I can’t believe you aren’t here anymore. I really can’t wrap my head around it. We talked about this. so many times. I’m so mad, I’m so sad I don’t know what to do,” Grande continued. “You were my dearest friend. for so long. above anything else.”
In October, a week after it was announced that Grande and SNL comedian Pete Davidson had called off their engagement, she posted a video to her Instagram story of Miller getting ready on Oscars night.
In the video, Miller — standing alongside who appears to be Grande’s mom, Joan, and her grandmother, Nonna — gets his tuxedo jacket sleeve fixed while watching an Elton John interview on television.

After making the comment, he turned to Grande and laughed when he realized she was recording the sweet moment.
Grande also gave her ex a sweet mention in her new single, “Thank U, Next,” singing “Wish I could say ‘thank you’ to Malcom / ‘Cause he was an angel.”
