Pete Davidson says getting engaged to Ariana Grande is "better" than he dreamed it would be.
The 24-year-old comedian and actor popped the question to the ‘No Tears Left To Cry’ singer earlier this week after just a few weeks of dating, and he’s now admitted their romance is beyond his wildest dreams.
Posting a picture of their hands – including Ariana’s engagement ring – on Instagram on Friday (15.06.18), he wrote: "u know what you’d dream it be like ? it’s better than that (sic)"
The ‘Saturday Night Live’ star may be on cloud nine now, but it was recently revealed by his close friend Nick Cannon that he phoned him up prior to getting down on bended knee to get his pal’s seal of approval.
Nick said: "He called before he was going to do it, and I said, ‘Salud!’ "He was really excited, so I was like, ‘I love it, man. Keep it going.’ Love is in the air!"
The 37-year-old star will be able to offer Pete plenty of advice as he got married to ex-wife Mariah Carey
– with whom he has seven-year-old twins Monroe and Moroccan – after just over a month of dating in April 2008.
Nick told ‘Entertainment Tonight: "To see them together … and I’ve been one of those dudes with one of those fantasy, fantastic relationships where you just go off and get married, so I was like, ‘Do it.’
"I’ve congratulated Pete. I haven’t spoken to Ariana, but I’m happy for them."
Ariana and Pete’s engagement was first reported on Monday (11.06.18), after a source said they’d been discussing the idea over the weekend.
They said: "It’s a recent engagement. They’re just two people who found love quickly and make each other happy all the time. They both started talking about it this past weekend. It’s nothing they’ve been hiding."
