Ariana Grande's taken to Twitter to defend her pal Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin's engagement, claiming they're 'human beings who love and have lives' in a series of deleted posts.

Ari - who faced criticism when her boyfriend of just four weeks Pete Davidson popped the question last month - jumped to the defense of the couple as she responded to a comment suggesting manager Scooter Braun had set up the proposal for publicity.

Replying to a tweet saying "First ariana get engaged to pete Davidson and now Justin bieber to hailey Bladwin the devil works hard but Scooter Braun works harder" [sic], Ari clapped back "..... you do realize we are human beings who love and have lives......right......?

"And that Scooter is a wonderful human being too who cares first [and] foremost [about] our health and happiness? Love is lit. Shit happens. I hope to god it happens to you too. [You] deserve it."

Then, when one fan claimed "it was just a stan twitter joke, we stan and love scooter," Ari responded "okay okay 🙈 be nice to that man. he’s wonderful. and very human. always puts his artists’ health and happiness first."

Justin's dad Jeremy then seemingly confirmed the news on Instagram, saying "Proud is an understatement! Excited for the next chapter!"

Hailey's uncle Stephen said "Sweet smile on my face ! me&wife (Kennya) Always pray 4 Gods will !! He is moving in the hearts of JB&HB Let’s all pray for His will to be done

🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 Love you 2 so much !!! #Godstiming #bestisyettocome Congrats ❤".
