Ariana Grande, 20, and Jai Brooks, 19, seem to have rekindled their relationship. Grande and Brooks have been writing cryptic messages to each other across social media.
At around 10pm on Friday, May 9, Grande let everyone know she was thinking about her boyfriend, Jai, with a romantic new message. The singer wrote, "'cause if the water dries up and the moon stops shining stars fall and the world goes blind boy u know.... I'll be savin' my love for u," followed by a series of emojis.
Just minutes before Grande's tweet was posted, Brooks tweeted something similarly cryptic. In an emoji-only message, he put a boy's face, a thought cloud, and then a girl's face.
