Big Sean and Ariana Grande are no longer a couple. The news was announced earlier this week. Both camps put out a joint statement, "They both deeply care for each other and remain close friends. We kindly ask that the media respect their wish for privacy regarding this personal matter at this time." But today more news was revealed about what went wrong in their relationship. TMZ Reports that Grande used Justin Bieber to get back at Sean when they broke up. If you can remember on April 8 at the Forum in Los Angeles, Bieber was a surprise guest during Grande’s set and performed “As Long As You Love Me.” However, what made headlines was the body language between the two, especially when Bieber creeped up behind Grande, clasping his hands around her waist.

Reports now reveal that at the time of the performance, the Detroit native broke up with Ariana because she was immature. To get back at Sean the singer orchestrated the whole performance to hurt the MC. But Sean didn't get jealous, instead it solidified his feelings and the relationship was officially over. Problems seemed to start in February when Ariana blew off Sean's House of Blues appearance in West Hollywood to get ready for the Grammys.
