Ariana Grande has told her London fans “I cannot wait to see you soon” ahead of her upcoming UK shows.
The singer, 33, previously announced she will take a step back from the spotlight after she completes her 10-night residency at The O2, which will bring an end to her Eternal Sunshine tour.
The shows kick off on August 15 and come to an end on September 1.
She has also has dropped out of the upcoming London revival of the Stephen Sondheim musical Sunday In The Park With George, in which she was due to appear opposite her Wicked co-star Jonathan Bailey.
In an Instagram post marking the end of her North American shows, Grande wrote: “I love you … i cannot believe that this concludes the north american leg of the eternal sunshine tour.
“I am overwhelmed with love and the deepest gratitude. thank you endlessly for the most special, beautiful, joyful and deeply fulfilling few months …
“I will cherish every moment of this time with you all & these memories forever.
“Thank you, chicago … london, i cannot wait to see you soon. i love you all more than ever.”
Speaking on stage earlier this week, Grande said her decision to take a break from public life came from “a thoughtful and empowered place” and was “not a reactive or impulsive thing”.
It came after Grande released the music video for Petal, the title single from her newly released eighth studio album, which sparked speculation about her health.
The production of Sunday In The Park With George at the Barbican in 2027 will continue as planned with Bailey, and Grande’s role will be recast.
