In a tweet on Boxing Day, the Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital Charity said Grande had given gifts for children and young people spending Christmas in Manchester’s hospitals. The charity said: “Thank you Ariana! “We were so excited to receive Christmas gifts for young patients across our hospitals from Ariana Grande. “The presents were distributed to babies, children and teenagers at @RMCHosp, @TraffordHosp, @WythenshaweHosp and @NorthMcrGH_NHS.” The gifts from the <i>One Last Time </i>singer were shared among youngsters at the Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital, Trafford Hospital, Wythenshawe Hospital and North Manchester General Hospital, the charity said. Grande has maintained a close relationship with Manchester since the 2017 terror attack and has spoken openly about struggling with post-traumatic stress disorder and anxiety as a result of the attack. Following the blast, the singer tweeted: “Broken. from the bottom of my heart, i am so so sorry. i don’t have words.” Grande returned to the city in June 2017 after organising the One Love charity concert. The fundraising event at Emirates Old Trafford cricket ground also featured performances from a host of famous acts including Coldplay, Justin Bieber and Katy Perry. The singer reportedly donated gifts to Manchester’s hospital patients in December 2020.
