Ariana Grande Boyfriend RUMORS: The Wanted's Nathan Sykes and 'The Way' Singer Send Flirty Tweets, Grande Doesn't Deny Relationship in Radio Interview [AUDIO]

Though "The Way" singer Ariana Grande somewhat denied seeing The Wanted's Nathan Sykes on her Twitter account last week, that doesn't mean that rumors aren't still flying that the "Almost Is Never Enough" singers are actually a couple. On Grande's "Yours Truly" release date, flirty tweets between the two pop stars and a new interview have reignited rumors that they may, in fact, be an item.

Grande and Sykes were tweeting back and forth at each other yesterday (Sept. 2) and things between the two were getting awfully cutesy. Sykes kicked things off with a vague tweet about his happiness yesterday, writing simply: "On another note, I'm the happiest I have been in my life in sooo long and I'm so grateful that everyone is being nothing but supportive." Grande then responded to the tweet with a simple smiley face.

Later, Sykes tweeted at Grande, telling her he was excited for "Yours Truly" to be released. She responded with an upbeat "weeeeee," and he wrote back a simple heart.

Though the tweets are certainly vague, the two are definitely friendly with each other, to say the very least.

Additionally, Grande has finally directly addressed the dating rumors with Sykes. Though she didn't confirm that they were a couple, she didn't deny the rumors either.

In an interview with "Mojo in the Morning," Grande said, "Here's the thing... the thing about it is that we're both 20 years old and we're trying to figure it out, and we're in the public eye, so it's like, it's hard for us to live our lives and do what we're doing when we don't even... You know what I mean? We're not ready to answer the question yet."

Her stumbling answer seems to imply that she and Sykes are perhaps in a pre-relationship phase? Perhaps they are more than friends but not quite yet boyfriend and girlfriend. Grande did just break up with her Janoskians boyfriend Jai Brooks last month.
