The representative said:
“She looks forward to finishing the tour and ending it on a high note, both healthily and happily, and then taking a much-deserved break from public-facing work and appearances, which has led to endless, ongoing public scrutiny.”
A source close to the 33-year-old also told NBC News that her concerts are physically demanding.
The person said Grande “performs a very physical show and there is a lot of athleticism involved,” and that she “performs healthily and successfully at a very high level night after night.”
