Now, speculation around this topic has been rife ever since the āWe Canāt Be Friendsā singer opened the topic up after a fan questioned one of the songs on her Sweetener album ā and of course, it was none other than the one subtly titled āPete Davidsonā.
The superstar couple embarked on a whirlwind romance back in 2018 and eventually got engaged in June of the same year, just weeks after making their relationship public.
However, in October, the pair officially ended their engagement and split, but they havenāt shied away from talking about each other, with Grande even getting a littleĀ tooĀ intimate with the details sometimes.

After the song title on the album was announced, a fan tweeted Grande to ask: āHow long is Pete,ā later clarifying that she meant the song and not his personal bodily anatomy.
āOH AS IN THE INTERLUDE NOT AS INā¦ ANYWAY,ā the fan quickly followed up.
However, Grande seemingly responded in a light-hearted manner, continuing the joke by writing:Ā āLike 10 inches?ā¦ Oh f***ā¦ I meanā¦ like a lil [sic] over a minute.ā

While a handful of people found the fun in the joke and some people were even left impressed by the confession, Davidson was not happy about it.
Instead, he leveled the playing field out the only way he knows bestā¦ using comedy.
During a skit on Saturday Night Live back in 2020, he poked fun of Grandeās height in response to her joke about his bulge.
āI donāt like that she talked all that s*** for my penis,ā he said on the show. āEverything is huge to her. Why would she tell everyone that I have a huge penis? So that every girl who sees my d*** for the rest of my life is disappointed.ā

Speaking to Charlamagne Tha GodĀ earlier that year, he also said that he didnāt mind Grandeās jokes or lyrics that referenced him.
āSheās the queen of shade,ā he explained at the time. āI get it. Thatās her job. ā¦ She has music to it, I get it. I hope people feel the same way about my jokes.ā
The comedian added that he would never āgenuinely [be] hurtfulā with his words but still wanted to express himself in the way he wants to.
āI wanna be cool with everybody but, you know, standupās part of my life,ā he said. āThat was a highly publicized thing. I feel like she got her fair run and her fair stab at it, and like I said, I donāt have social media and I donāt have an outlet really to express my feelings so standupās just how I do it.ā
