The love story between Grande, 30, and Slater, 31, unfolded during the filming of the highly-anticipated movie adaptation of “Wicked” in London, which commenced production in December 2022. Their professional collaboration blossomed into a romantic relationship earlier this year. (In the film, Grande will take on the role of Glinda, while Slater will portray the endearing munchkin Boq.)
A source close to the couple shared, “They’re really happy and really good for each other. All of her friends love him.”
Prior to her relationship with Slater, Ariana Grande was married to Dalton Gomez. The songstress tied the knot with Gomez, 28, in May 2021. However, it was confirmed by Us in July that Grande and Gomez had decided to part ways due to “issues for months,” according to an insider.
Official divorce proceedings were initiated by Grande on September 18, as revealed by court documents obtained by Us. The date of separation was indicated as February 20. On the other hand, Ethan Slater also took steps to end his marriage to his estranged wife, with whom he welcomed a child in 2022, by filing for divorce in July after over a decade together.
As more details emerged about the separation between Ariana Grande and Dalton Gomez, the blossoming relationship between Grande and Slater took center stage in the headlines.
