‘These last few months have been a whirlwind and though I’m in a better place now, having my personal devastation unfold so publicly was painful,’ she began. 

The reality star said she would ‘forever be grateful’ to her fans and friends for continuing to support her through much talked about ordeal dubbed the ‘Scandoval’.

‘But now is the time that I’m fully telling my side of the story,’ she revealed, and it will unfold in ‘my new book, SINGLE AF COCKTAILS.’

Ariana said that ‘bartending will always be my thing’ and ‘each cocktail tells part of the story of what happened, in my own words.’

According the the publisher’s website, drink recipes include ‘Rumors, with dark crème de cassis that floats on top of the drink before bleeding into the spirits below, the way lies may find their way into your relationship.’

Another called We Ride at Dawn, features, ‘a big, bold mezcal margarita that’s equal parts power and healing.’ 

The Dead End actress said she was inspired to tell her story, ‘because I heard from so many of you that you could put yourself in my shoes.’

In turn, she wanted to be able to help others going through their own heartbreak.

‘You have all given me hope in my darkest times and my wish is that if any of you relate to this story at all, you’ll feel less alone.’
