Pete Davidson took to Instagram this evening to post an emotional statement.

The SNL star who recently split from fiancé, Ariana Grande, never addressed the breakup bar mentioning the pair had parted ways in one of his skits, however, now he feels the need to speak up.

In light of the Thank U, Next music video which dropped at the weekend and discussed Ariana’s split with the star as well as revealing that she is the one who called things off with a “sorry I dipped” message, Pete has decided to speak up about the past 9 months and the state of his mental health.

“I’m trying to understand how when something happens to a guy the whole entire world just trashes him out without any facts or frame of reference.”

Continuing he said…

“I’ve been getting online bullied and in public by people for the last 9 months. I’ve spoken about BDP and being suicidal publicly only in the hopes that it will bring awareness and help kids like myself who don’t want to be on this earth.”

“No matter how hard the internet or anyone tries to make me kill myself. I won’t.”
