Ariana Grande didn't seem pleased by the promo, writing in a now-deleted tweet: "For somebody who claims to hate relevancy u sure love clinging to it huh."

Trouble may be brewing between exes Ariana Grande and Pete Davidson. 

In a "Saturday Night Live" promo for this weekend, Davidson, 24, can be seen asking the show's musical guest for the week, Maggie Rogers, to marry him.

"Hey Maggie, I'm Pete," Davidson says. 

"Hey Pete," she replies. 

"You wanna get married?" Davidson asks. 

"No," she answers.

"Zero for three," Davidson laments.

Grande, 25, didn't seem pleased, posting in a now-deleted tweet shortly after the promo was released: "For somebody who claims to hate relevancy u sure love clinging to it huh."

However, after Davidson got wind that his ex was upset, he pulled the plug on a skit he'd penned regarding the breakup, TMZ reported. Unfortunately, it was too late to pull the promo, according to TMZ. 

Davidson and Grande apparently have an agreement not to address the split publicly, TMZ reported.

But it's not the first time Davidson has poked fun at their romance. On the season premiere of "Saturday Night Live," he joked about breaking up with the singer. 

“Obviously I wanted [a prenup]. God forbid we split up and she takes half of my sneakers,” he said. “You know, I don’t even get royalties for that ‘Pete Davidson’ song? Like, if we break up, and we won’t – we will – but we won’t. I’m kidding. But like, in 10 years, if God forbid that ever happened, there will be a song called ‘Pete Davidson’ playing in speakers at Kmart and I’ll be working there.”

Grande and Davidson's engagement ended abruptly in October. It was reportedly "too much too soon" and surprised no one in the singer's inner circle. 

Grande had struggled in recent weeks with the death of her ex-boyfriend, rapper Mac Miller, who passed away from an apparent drug overdose in September. The pair dated for two years before she began seeing Davidson. 

"I adored you from the day I met you when I was nineteen and I always will," Grande posted on Instagram after Miller's death. "I can't believe you aren't here anymore. I really can't wrap my head around it."
