Pete Davidson and Ariana Grande certainly aren’t strangers to the spotlight — but just because they’re public about their relationship, doesn’t mean they have to put up with negative comments. And Pete just proved he won’t.
On Saturday, he posted a picture on Instagram of Ariana wearing a necklace with his late father Scott’s FDNY badge and number. Someone quickly commented, “No girl should ever wear your dad’s chain. So disrespectful.”
Pete wasn’t having it. “For ur information that’s not just some girl, that’s my fiancé,” Pete replied. “She’s the greatest person I know. I gave it to her because she has my heart and that is the most precious thing I own. My dad would be so happy and love her so much.”
Pete’s father died during the attacks on September 11, 2001 in New York City. He definitely doesn’t have to defend his decision to anyone, but it’s sweet that he stood up for Ariana. She also recently got Scott’s badge number, 8418, tattooed as a tribute.
