In many ways, my heart is breaking for Pete Davidson.  Since his breakup with Ariana Grande, Pete has returned to Instagram and is opening up about the bullying he’s had to deal with for the last several months, both online and in person.

Pete wrote a very personal letter to his followers on Instagram saying, “I’ve kept my mouth shut.  Never mentioned any names, never said a word about anyone or anything.  I’m trying to understand how when something happens to a guy the whole entire world just trashes him without any facts or frame of reference.  Especially in today’s climate where everyone loves to be offended and upset it truly is mind boggling.  I’ve been getting online bullied and in public by people for 9 months.  I’ve spoken about BPD and being suicidal publicly only in the hopes that will help bring awareness and help kids like myself who don’t want to be on this earth.  I just want you guys to know.  No matter how hard the internet or anyone tries to make me kill myself.  I won’t.  I’m upset I even have to say this.  To all those holding me down and seeing this for what it is – I see you and I love you.”

Clearly there’s no bad blood between Ariana and Pete because Ariana afterwards defended her ex on Instagram, “I know u already know this, but I feel I need to remind my fans to please be gentler with others. I really don’t endorse anything but forgiveness and positivity.  I care deeply about Pete and his health. I’m asking you to please be gentler with others, even on the internet.  I’ve learned thru my own mistakes not to be reactive on socials, so I do understand, but you truly don’t know what anybody is experiencing ever, regardless of what they choose to display on social media or how they may appear in public. I can promise u [sic] that so please let whatever point you’re trying to make go. I will always have irrevocable love for him and if you’ve gotten any other impression from my recent work, you might have missed the point”

 

A fan later posted a screenshot of a messaged that was sent by Ariana herself regarding Pete’s Instagram, “I have never encouraged anything but forgiveness.  I care deeply about Pete and his health and would never encourage any kind of mistreatment.  I haven’t seen any of it because I’m blocked but i want you to know that i would never want or encourage that ever and you should know that.  I care about him deeply,” HOLD – did Ari JUST say Pete blocked her on the gram? #Whoa

It’s just a shame Pete has to write something so sad all because of online bullying!
