Summary
- Grande plans public hiatus after her tour concludes.
- The singer faces intense public scrutiny over her health.
- She has withdrawn from a West End stage production.

Ariana Grande is planning to step away from public view once her "Eternal Sunshine" tour concludes. This hiatus follows a period of intense online discussion about her health and physical appearance, particularly after the release of her music video for "Petal." Her representative confirmed that Grande will take a break from public-facing work after finishing the tour, which is scheduled to end on September 1st.
The Grammy winner has had a busy recent schedule, including filming the "Wicked" movies and releasing two studio albums, "Eternal Sunshine" and "Petal." She has also been nominated for an Oscar for her role as Glinda.
In addition to her tour, Grande has withdrawn from the West End revival of Stephen Sondheim's "Sunday in the Park with George," which is set to open in London in the summer of 2027. This decision was made with the understanding and support of the production team, who will announce new casting in due course.
