The Petal hitmaker made yet another tweak to her 2018 hit single Thank U, Next on stage at the O2 Arena on Tuesday.

While singing the verse that references Ricky, Ari changed the lyrics to "Wrote some songs about Ricky / I'm tryna make him my last."

This is hardly the first time the Into You singer had subtly shouted out the former backup dancer after the exes reportedly rekindled their romance.

During her July 13 performance in Brooklyn, Ariana changed the line to, "Wrote some songs about Ricky / We always find our way back."

She made another swap at her Austin concert where Ricky was in attendance, singing, "Wrote some songs about Ricky / I know he's still got my back."

The 7 Rings artist, who previously confirmed her plans to step away from the public eye, closed out her 10-night residency by thanking the crowd for participating in the "extraordinary experience."

Ariana tearfully told fans, "This has been one of the most beautiful, extraordinary experiences of my life and I just want to express my gratitude without sobbing completely."

"But really, thank you from the bottom of my heart. It's been so special, and I'll cherish this experience always. I have the best fans in the entire world, and I always have," the Wicked star continued.

She ended her speech by adding, "I have loved every minute of this with you all, and I just want to make sure I express how grateful I am. Thank you, and I love you so much."
