Grande said that the pair won’t make their trek down the aisle soon, though, teasing: “It’s gonna be, like, next year.”

Grande also spoke with Strahan about grappling with the May 2017 terrorist attack at her Manchester concert, in which a suicide bomber killed 22 people; the tragedy informed her new LP.
“I wanted to kind of subliminally honor the Manchester victims,” she said of her new song “Get Well Soon.”
Grande added: “I wanted to make the length of the song five minutes and 22 seconds as a way to celebrate and honor them and their lives, because that song is about healing. It’s supposed to be a great big musical hug for anybody going through anything dark.”
