Ariana Grande continues to be a force to be reckoned with, after releasing her comeback single 'No Tears Left To Cry' in April 2017, she followed it up with several Top 10 singles including, 'God Is A Woman', and her most recent release, 'thank u, next', as well as her Number 1 album 'Sweetener'.

Now, Ariana Grande has confirmed what her first single of 2019 will be, and it's a song from her forthcoming fifth album. Replying to a fan on Twitter, when asked, 'what's the tea on ur next single' sic, the singer said, 'it's 7 rings'.

This written confirmation comes after the singer apparently hints at her next release during the 'thank u, next' music video, where she can be seen driving a car with a licence plate saying '7 RINGS'.

The song is said to be inspired by a trip to Tiffany's, where Ariana was accompanied by her six friends and they got seven matching rings.
