AceShowbiz - Ariana Grande was clearly devastated after the Manchester bombing that occurred after her concert at the Manchester Arena earlier this week. She tweeted, "broken. from the bottom of my heart, i am so so sorry. i don't have words." And now a father from Georgia has sent his support for the singer, urging her to take care of herself first.
In the heartfelt letter, Patrick Millsaps who has 3 daughters extended "some redneck love from a daddy of daughters." "I am the father of three daughters-ages 13, 12 & 12. So, you have been a part of our family for years," he opened the letter. "Since you are a part of our family and after reading a tweet you posted on Twitter the other night; I'm afraid I need to set you straight girl. So listen up and receive some redneck love from a daddy of daughters."
"You don't have a dadgum thing to apologize for," he told Ariana. "You are no more responsible for the actions of an insane coward who committed an evil act in your proximity than you would be for a devastating natural disaster or acts of morons near your hotel. Your text was some stinkin' thinkin' in that regard," he wrote, referring to the singer's tweet.
"Spend time with your God, your family and your friends who will give you space and support when you need it," he advised her. Patrick also told Ariana that she should sing again "when and only when you are ready." He added to conclude the open letter, "Take care of you first. Your fans aren't going anywhere."
