Ariana’s mother, Joan Grande, clicked on the hashtag and then started to watch the Janoskian videos on YouTube.
She thought the boys were really funny so showed the videos to Ariana and told her to respond to one of them.
Ariana messaged her phone number to him on Twitter because she knew that Luke wasn’t sincere. They started to tweet each other a lot.

Breakup and accusations
In early August it was confirmed that Ariana was releasing a song titled “Almost Is Never Enough” which featured English singer Nathan Sykes.
Together, they filmed the music video and performed the song on many occasions which caused them to spend an increasing amount of time together.
On August 6, he posted a picture on Instagram to celebrate his 10-month anniversary with Ariana. The caption was:
“This girl means so much to me. Not many long distance relationships workout, but ours is different. We are not only each others’ boyfriend/girlfriend, we are also each others best friends. To still be so in love with each other even though at times we could be a world apart, really means something. I am the luckiest guy on this earth and really have found one of a kind. I want you For a long time and I’m so blessed to be apart of your life. Thank you For the life long memories, I love you and happy 10 months @arianagrande ❤ ps. Sorry this was so mushy.”
It seemed that Jariana was still strong but around a week later Ariana confirmed that she and he had broken up.
Later, in an interview with Complex, Ariana revealed that he had broken up with her over a text message on the opening night of The Listening Sessions right before she was about to go on stage.
Ariana and Nathan
When the music video for “Almost Is Never Enough” came out, some fans became suspicious of a romantic connection between Ariana and Nathan.
They did not directly deny it, and only said that they were young and trying to figure everything out but said they would tell their fans if there was anything to tell.
Throughout the next month, the speculation intensified with Nathan and Ariana dropping hints everywhere. They finally confirmed their relationship in late September.
On October 7, 2013 (what was supposed to be his and Ariana’s first anniversary), he accused Ariana of cheating on him with Nathan.
He wrote a TwitLonger with the opening lines as “Yes I was cheated on. Yes, it does suck. Yes, I was left for another man.”
Ariana denied the rumors saying that they were completely false, hurtful, and shocking, but she wants to move forward and forget about it.
She claimed that he was just using her to get his “fifteen minutes of fame.” There were no signs of him and Ariana talking for the rest of the year.
However, Ariana and Nathan dated until December and then broke up.
Reconciliation and final breakup
In early 2014, there had been many hints of him and Ariana being back together. They re-followed each other on Twitter and Instagram and Ariana also followed his brother.
Ariana posted an Instagram video on March 24, 2014, and many fans said they could hear him laughing. They often tweet love emojis around the same time and indirectly tweeted each other.
On April 29, 2014, Ariana did an interview where she said she loves a bad boy, someone who is funny, and who has a lot of tattoos. He fits all of these categories.
She then said she tried to date a good boy for a little bit but that it didn’t work. This is most likely referring to Nathan Sykes.
Ariana and he were caught kissing after Ariana performed at the iHeartRadio Music Awards on May 1, 2014, which officially confirmed their relationship.
The next day they both posted on Instagram that they were listening to Elvis Presley within forty minutes of each other.
Ariana has posted some pictures of him and they continued to indirectly tweet love emojis to each other, although they were not as open about their relationship as they were in the past.
Ariana posted on her Instagram pictures of him carrying her and another of them kissing on the set of the music video for “Break Free”.
Their final break up!
In July 2014, Ariana’s grandfather became seriously ill. She spent the whole month of July in Florida where he lives.
Ariana’s family was already with her and all of her friends flew down to comfort and spend time with her.
Her grandfather then passed away on July 22, 2014. She was very close to him and his death was very hard for her to go through.
This along with a source close to Ariana confirmed that he and Ariana had broken up.
He did not come down to be with her when she needed him most, due to his and the Janoskian’s visas having expired; even though Ariana needed him to be there he was stuck in Mexico trying to get back into the United States.
He has dated Allegra Rotella. They had a good time together. He shared a picture of him planting a kiss on the cheek of a pouting girl, further firing rumors of the alleged link-up.
