Ariana Grande returned to the United States yesterday, one day after a suicide bomber killed 22 people at the singer's concert in Manchester, England.
Following the tragic events, questions linger over whether the star will continue her European tour.
Grande, 23, was seen in photographs posted on the Daily Mail website walking down the steps of a private plane at an airport in her hometown of Boca Raton, Florida, and being met by family members.
The Daily Mail images showed the diminutive pop star dressed casually in sweats and appearing downcast as she greeted her boyfriend, the rapper Mac Miller, on the tarmac and getting into a waiting car.

Grande had not been seen publicly since an explosion ripped through the packed Manchester Arena at the end of her performance there.
Some of the 22 people who died in the attack were teens or young girls.
Grande was apparently unharmed.

Islamic State claimed responsibility for what it called revenge against "Crusaders," but there appeared to be contradictions in its account of the operation.
In her only statement so far, Grande took to Twitter some five hours after the bombing to describe herself as "broken" in the aftermath of the attack.
"from the bottom of my heart, i am so so sorry. i don't have words," she said in the tweet.
Grande was performing in Manchester during the European leg of a tour to promote her third album, Dangerous Woman, which also has her scheduled to visit London, Belgium, Poland, Germany, Switzerland and France in the coming weeks.
Best known for her singles Problem and Break Free, Grande is credited with having an exceptionally broad vocal range for a pop star.
