Ariana Grande and Dalton Gomez have officially initiated divorce proceedings, as reported by TMZ. Both Ariana and Dalton submitted their divorce filings simultaneously, with Ariana citing “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the split, and they listed February 20, 2023, as the date of separation. It’s worth mentioning that the couple had worked out all the details before going to the courthouse, and according to insiders, Ariana will provide financial support to Dalton as per their prenuptial agreement. The specific amount of this financial arrangement remains undisclosed.
A source close to the situation shared with TMZ that it took some time for the former couple to come to an agreement on the terms of their separation before officially filing for divorce. Throughout the process, they have displayed care and mutual respect for one another.
The news of Ariana and Dalton’s separation initially broke in July when Ariana was spotted without her wedding ring while attending Wimbledon. TMZ reported that they had attempted reconciliation a few months earlier but it did not succeed. Despite their divorce, they have maintained a friendship and continue to communicate regularly.
Currently, Ariana Grande is reportedly in a relationship with her co-star from “Wicked,” Ethan Slater, who is also going through his own divorce. Their relationship has been kept very private, but a source informed People magazine in early September that they are still together. The source emphasized that public perceptions have been somewhat exaggerated, and the reality of their relationship is different from what has been portrayed in the media. Furthermore, a close family friend clarified that Ariana and Ethan only began dating after both had separated from their respective partners, acting respectfully throughout the process.
