Ariana Grande, the platinum-selling recording artist and ‘Wicked’ movie co-star, made headlines with her Halloween night visit to Broadway. She was there to support her rumored boyfriend, Ethan Slater, who is currently starring in the revival of the Tony Award-winning musical, Monty Python’s Spamalot, at the St. James Theatre. The pop star, dressed in robes and a Spamalot crown, was mobbed by fans as she left the play with a friend, who was in a knight’s costume.

The romantic connection between Ariana and Ethan was first reported in July, following her divorce from Dalton Gomez. Her divorce was finalized on October 6. On the same night of their Broadway outing, a shooting incident occurred just 200 feet from the theater, with a man being shot in the shoulder. The NYPD reported that the victim’s condition was not life-threatening, and five suspects were apprehended.

Ariana and Ethan’s relationship blossomed after meeting on the set of the film adaptation of Wicked, where Ariana played Glinda, the good witch, and Ethan portrayed munchkin Boq. Both had announced their respective divorces in July, with Ethan filing for divorce from his wife, Lilly, and seeking joint custody of their newborn son.

Lilly, Ethan’s estranged spouse, had openly expressed her feelings in interviews, describing Ariana as ‘not a girl’s girl’ and lamenting her family’s situation. Despite the ongoing drama, Lilly expressed her determination to move forward as a single mother, focusing on her son.

In a surprising twist, it was revealed that Ariana had spent time with Lilly and her baby even before her romance with Ethan was made public. She bonded with Lilly and Ethan’s child during visits to London, where she had dinners with them. Ariana expressed her desire to have a baby one day. However, the situation took a turn when Lilly discovered Ethan’s affair with Ariana after a visit to the Wicked set.

Efforts were made to salvage their marriages, but ultimately, the affair continued, leading to Ethan filing for divorce. Ethan and Lilly, who were high-school sweethearts, had been married since 2018 and welcomed their baby boy in August 2022.

The situation remains complicated, with love, drama, and an unexpected Halloween night shooting incident adding to the unfolding narrative of Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater’s relationship.
