It's Not Just Incorrect To Blame Ariana Grande For Mac

Following Mac Miller’s death on Friday, his ex-girlfriend, Ariana Grande, has been receiving overwhelming amounts of vitriol and anger from his fans. Many blame her for Miller’s overdose, saying that she should have remained in the relationship and encouraged him to find sobriety. Trolls have taken to Instagram and Twitter, commenting on her photos and directing hateful tweets her way. Many of them imply that his death was her fault, while others have wished death upon her “causing” the tragedy. As previously reported by the, the harassment got so bad that Ariana was forced to disable comments on her Instagram posts. A number of celebrities have posted about the abuse Ariana Grande has been receiving, condemning those that have posted hateful and inflammatory things about her. It is easy to forget that Grande and Miller were still friends after the breakup, and she is likely just as shocked and upset at the loss as everyone else.

During this time, she needs support — not blame. I'm worried about Ariana Grande, too. She shouldn't be to blame for Mac Miller's overdose/death. He was a grown man dealing with his own personal demons. It's a really sad and unfortunate situation but it was ultimately his own choices that led to his fate. — therealkenidrawoods (@KenidraRWoods).

She was not his caretaker, and it was not her responsibility to endure hardship and unhappiness for his sake. His loss is a tragedy, but it was not Ariana Grande’s fault. This is not the first time Miller’s fans have hounded Grande.

As reported by, she replied calmly to the comments. “I have cared for him and tried to support his sobriety. Of course I didn’t share how hard or scary it was while it was happening, but it was. I will continue to pray from the bottom of my heart that he figures it all out.” While many fans of Miller and his work have a right to mourn, they do not have the right to torment Ariana Grande for leaving him.
