Ariana Grande Spotted On A Hockey Game Date With Ethan Slater In Sporty-Chic Get-Up
Judging from the photos obtained by Page Six, it was clear that the pair was having a blast cheering on the Florida Panthers as they took down the Edmonton Oilers. The Grammy winner looked sporty chic in a black graphic hoodie, sheer tights, and a cute black cat-ear headband.
Grande's blonde locks were styled in a chic updo, while the R.E.M. Beauty mogul's makeup game was on point with black winged liner, sky-high lashes, ample rosy blush, and a glossy pink pout. The pop star also accessorized with some subtle, shiny earrings.
But what caught everyone's attention was how happy and relaxed Grande and Slater (who met as co-stars while filming the upcoming long-awaited Wicked live-action film) looked in each other's company.
After the March release of her latest album, Eternal Sunshine dropped, and a few days after Grande premiered the music video for her track, "The Boy Is Mine" on June 7th, the duo enjoyed their night out together.
Fans have been speculating that the song may be about Slater, who Grande has reportedly been linked to since July 2023. According to insiders, some believe that the catchy track's lyrics were intentionally directed at Slater’s estranged wife, Lilly Jay, making it a pointed affront to her.
The divorce proceedings between Slater and Jay are still apparently ongoing, with custody arrangements for their 1-year-old son, Ezra, still to be finalized.
Grande and Slater’s relationship has been subject to rumors of infidelity on Slater’s part, although these allegations were never confirmed. Slater initiated divorce proceedings shortly after his relationship with Grande became public.
Although the "We Can't Be Friends" hitmaker and Tony Award nominee prefer to keep their love life under wraps, they've been spotted together a few times over the past few months, including a visit to Disneyland and a public display of affection-filled excursion in the Big Apple.
