Ariana Grande adjusts Ethan Slater’s tie at ‘Wicked’

Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater’s relationship might have gotten off to a controversial start, but the pair are now stealing everyone’s hearts during their Evil press tour. An example of that? On Saturday, the lovebirds left fans swooning after they shared an adorable PDA moment on the red carpet at the film’s Los Angeles premiere.

Photos from the event showed Grande sweetly adjusting Slater’s bowtie with a big smile on her face as the actor lovingly looked back at her with gratitude. After making sure her boyfriend was camera-ready, the singer posed on the red carpet with her co-star Cynthia Erivo, wearing a voluminous pink and white plaid dress with a matching cape and hair bow by Thom Browne.

Another swoon-worthy moment between Slater and Grande happened at the Sydney premiere earlier this month, when the actress was pictured holding up the massive train of her dress. Asked about the sweet gesture of Entertainment tonight on Saturday, Grande stated, “He’s always so adorable. And he’s so great in this movie. He’s such a great person. I’m so glad people are getting to know him. My heart is very happy.”

Slater also had only the sweetest things to say about Grande, telling the outlet, “I’m so proud of Ariana. She’s incredible in this movie. She and Cynthia are mind-blowing in this movie, and I think I don’t is alone in the cast to feel a little privileged to be able to witness that chemistry on set.”

Grande was with husband Dalton Gomez for two years before reportedly ending things in January of that year, while Slater had been married to his high school sweetheart Lilly Jay since 2018 and reportedly broke up with her just days before the news of his romance with Grande came. out.
