Ariana Grande has announced she's taking a break from public life amid intense scrutiny about her weight.

And it appears the pop star, 33, will be prioritizing wellness during her downtime, liking a pointed post on Instagram about 'getting healthier.'

The video was shared on Tuesday by content creator Terri Cole, a New York-based psychotherapist and podcast host, who stated: 'Unfortunately, I can confirm that not everyone will like the healthier version of you. That's OK. Get healthier, anyway!'

'There are going to be people who celebrate the healthier version of you…and you might have those who miss the version of you that was stretched thin, keeping everyone else happy + comfortable,' Cole continued.

The post further declared: 'Keep growing and prioritizing yourself regardless. You have more strength than you likely give yourself credit for, and every step you take to honor your boundaries is proof of that.'

'The people who are meant to be in your circle will love and appreciate your growth, not just the parts of you that make everything comfortable or convenient,' she concluded. 'Drop a [heart] if you had a relationship change because you finally chose YOU!'

Grande 'liked' the upload but did not leave a comment. The Daily Mail has reached out to the star's reps for comment but has yet to hear back.

The Wicked star recently announced she would be taking a break from public life

Grande is amid her ongoing Eternal Sunshine Tour and will be wrapping up both the North American and the United Kingdom legs of her tour next month.

Earlier this week, her reps shared a statement saying she would be taking a 'much-deserved break' from public-facing duties after the tour ends.

The statement served as an announcement of her exit from the West End revival of Sunday in the Park with George, in which she was due to star this fall.

The pop sensation subsequently spoke out directly to fans during one of her Chicago concerts, saying she had planned to take a break 'quietly, a long time ago' and made the decision 'from a thoughtful and empowered place.'

Grande is set to appear in the upcoming Meet The Parents movie 'Focker-In-Law' opposite Ben Stiller and Robert DeNiro, which is scheduled for release in November.

However, it's unclear whether she will return to the spotlight to take part in promotional duties for the movie at that time.

Meanwhile, a source told Page Six recently that Grande has been 'overworked.'

A source told the outlet that Grande has 'been nonstop and it's taking a toll. She's never handled the public scrutiny well and constant chatter about her weight [doesn't help].'

Insiders have told the Daily Mail that Grande's inner circle is convinced she is 'not well.'

'We have asked her to take a break. Actually we've begged her, like a lot. A lot a lot,' a family insider close to the star told the Daily Mail.

'Not like a day or two, but a break break. She is not well. She is anxious and unhappy. She doesn't sleep enough, doesn't eat enough.'
