Ariana Grande’s love life is making headlines once again. The “Break Up With Your Girlfriend, I’m Bored” singer was spotted getting cozy with her married “Wicked” co-star, Ethan Slater, during her 30th birthday getaway in late June. The Daily Mail recently obtained a photo of the pair from the outing, where Grande can be seen wrapping her arm around Slater while they stroll at Soho Farmhouse in the UK. Slater is seen reciprocating the PDA by placing his arm around Grande’s lower back. This revelation comes just three weeks before it was officially confirmed that they were in a relationship.
A Summer Romance Unveiled
While representatives for Grande and Slater have not yet commented on the nature of their relationship, TMZ previously reported that the Grammy winner and the Broadway star have been seeing each other for “several months.” It is highly likely that the couple had already established a romantic connection when the photo was taken. The duo has been working together on the upcoming movie “Wicked” in London for the past year. They were previously married to their respective partners, Dalton Gomez and Lilly Jay, at the start of filming but have since separated. Grande ended her two-year marriage with Gomez in January, citing difficulties in maintaining their relationship during the COVID-19 pandemic. Slater, on the other hand, had previously expressed his happiness in his marriage with Jay, even dedicating a sweet Mother’s Day post to her.
Two Sides of the Story
In an exclusive interview with Page Six, Jay revealed that Grande is “not a girl’s girl” and implied that her family had been affected by their relationship. However, conflicting reports suggest that claims about Slater abandoning Jay’s family are unfounded. Sources close to the situation have stated that Slater is committed to being present in his son’s life and is determined to co-parent with Jay. Nevertheless, Slater filed for divorce from Jay on Wednesday, bringing an end to their 10-year relationship.
As of now, neither Grande nor Gomez has filed divorce papers. Fans are eagerly awaiting further updates on Grande’s new romance and how it will unfold in the coming months. With her powerful vocals and Slater’s talent on Broadway, this superstar duo’s partnership is surely one to watch.
Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater’s relationship has generated significant buzz after they were caught getting cozy during Grande’s birthday getaway. Despite their previous marriages, the couple seems to have found a connection while working together on the movie “Wicked.” While there are different perspectives on their past relationships, fans are excited to see what the future holds for this talented duo.
