Ariana Grande explained during a recent interview that 'thank u, next' was nearly a very different song, due to her relationship with Pete Davidson.

Despite being the ultimate break-up anthem, Ariana Grande admitted that 'thank u, next' could have sounded very differently.

During an interview on The Zach Sang Show, the 'God is a woman' singer said that the titular track from her fifth studio album may have had a happier ending, due to her "on and off" relationship with Pete Davidson - who recently covered up his tattoo of Ari.

The 25-year-old explained "In my relationship by the time things were, like, up and down and on and off and so I didn't know what was gonna happen.

"And then we got back together and so I had to make a different version of it," continued Ari. "And then we broke up again and so we ended up going with that version... There's a version where I was getting married. There's a version where I'm not getting married. There's a version with nothing, we're not talking about anything."

She later went on to say that she decided on the first version, but wanted to cover all of the bases.
