Ariana Grande has made bedside visits to some of the young victims of the suicide bomb attack on her Manchester concert last month.
The Dangerous Woman singer headed to the Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital on Friday to spend time with some of the young survivors still recovering from the attack, which killed 22 and injured more than 50.
Grande left the UK for her home in the US soon after the incident, but she’s returned to Manchester to hold a benefit concert this weekend to honour the victims and raise money for their families.
Called One Love Manchester, Katy Perry, Miley Cyrus, Coldplay, Justin Bieber, Pharrell Williams, Niall Horan and Usher are all set to perform.

Ariana tweeted she was “broken” after the attack happened at the conclusion of her concert on May 22, when a suicide bomber detonated the device in the foyer.
A couple of days later she penned a powerful essay to her fans, urging people not to let hate breed more hate, saying “We won’t let this divide us. We won’t let hate win”.
In the wake of the attack the Side To Side singer cancelled several of her upcoming shows in London and Europe. It has not been confirmed whether the rest of her Dangerous Woman tour will go on.
British Prime Minister Theresa May denounced the “appalling sickening cowardice” of the suicide bomber, who has been named as 22-year-old Salman Abedi, a UK-born man of Libyan descent.
