Ariana Grande and Mac Miller‘s relationship will always be one for the books.

The exes were friends for years before taking their relationship to the next level. The artists were first linked in 2012 after a flirty Twitter exchange led them to collaborate on a remake of the hit 1944 Christmas song, “Baby It’s Cold Outside.”

The following year, Grande and Miller (real name Malcolm McCormick) linked up again for the two-time Grammy Award winner’s single, “The Way,” in which they locked lips onscreen.

In 2016, the longtime friends took their romance public, going Instagram official in September that year.

The pair dated for nearly two years before amicably calling it quits in May 2018. In September that year, news broke that Miller had died of an accidental overdose, Us Weekly confirmed. He was 26 years old.

“I adored you from the day I met you when I was 19 and I always will,” Grande wrote in a tribute via Instagram after his death. “I can’t believe you aren’t here anymore. I really can’t wrap my head around it. We talked about this. So many times. I’m so mad, I’m so sad, I don’t know what to do. You were my dearest friend. For so long. Above anything else. I’m so sorry I couldn’t fix or take your pain away. I really wanted to. The kindest, sweetest soul with demons he never deserved. I hope you’re okay now. Rest.”
