Related: Ariana Grande Sweetly Supports Boyfriend Ethan Slater With Rare Comment Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater’s romance isn’t defying gravity, but it has turned heads from the start. Us Weekly confirmed in July 2023 that Wicked costars Grande and Slater were in a “fairly new” relationship following their respective breakups. News broke that same month that Grande and Dalton Gomez called it quits after two years […]

In an interview with GQ in October, Slater opened up about his relationship with the “Into You” singer, which began soon after they both separated from their spouses. Both actors denied that they cheated on their then-partners amid widespread speculation.

“Obviously, it was a really super big year, and I think there was something that was really difficult about things in your private life being commented on and looked at by the public,” he said. “There were a lot of big changes in private lives that were really happening, so it’s really hard to see people who don’t know anything about what’s happening commenting on it and speculating, and then getting things wrong about the people you love. So just to address that part of it, that feels really hard.”
