Ariana Grande & Ethan Slater Split: On-Again, Off-Again Romance Ends

Pop icon Ariana Grande and actor Ethan Slater have reportedly ended their relationship after nearly three years together. Sources confirmed the split, which occurred a few months ago, shedding light on their romance which began on the set of "Wicked."

Insiders have described the relationship as frequently "on-off," with some close friends expressing doubts about its long-term viability. Despite allegations of infidelity, sources close to Grande and Slater have refuted these claims, stating neither should be branded as cheaters.

Amid the breakup news, Grande's ex-fiancé, Pete Davidson, has reportedly shown support. A friend of Davidson's indicated that he remains protective of Grande and admires her resilience and professional success.

Interestingly, despite the confirmed breakup, some sources suggest that Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater might reconcile. With Slater reportedly still in love, there's a possibility of them getting back together if Grande remains open to it. Slater was seen attending Shakespeare in the Park's "Romeo & Juliet" on June 11, 2026, shortly after the breakup news surfaced.
