Piers Morgan has defended Ariana Grande as a 'genuinely great person' and urged online trolls to 'back off' as the pop star prepares to step away from the spotlight following her Eternal Sunshine Tour.
Morgan said he had 'no idea what's going on with @arianagrande' but recalled spending an evening with the singer at a Beverly Hills restaurant several years ago. He described her as 'intelligent, funny, engaging' and 'supremely talented', adding that fame at her level can be 'a very difficult and lonely place.'
