After eight months of dating, Big Sean and Ariana Grande have broken up. Reps for the former couple released a statement via US Weekly where they say it was a mutual split. “They both deeply care for each other and remain close friends,” their reps revealed to US Weekly. “We kindly ask that the media respect their wish for privacy regarding this personal matter at this time."

According to the report, the breakup happened a few weeks ago and was largely due to their upcoming tour schedules conflicting that would have kept them separated for much of the year. It's worth wondering if the split had anything to do with Ariana and Justin Bieber getting a bit too comfortable during a performance from a few weeks ago. Either way, condolences to the couple
