Ariana Grande is "broken" after a suspected terrorist attack at her Manchester Arena gig in the U.K. killed 22 people and injured dozens more.

The horrific incident occurred in the box office area of the venue at around 10.40pm local time after the gig on Monday night (22May17), when a lone male attacked carrying an improvised explosive device claimed the lives of 22 people.
