Ariana Grande Giving Ethan Slater Space Amid His Divorce With Wife Lilly Jay!

Don’t expect to see Ariana Grande and Ethan Slater in public together again anytime soon!

According to TMZ on Saturday, the 30-year-old singer has not seen her new boyfriend in person in a minute. Why is that? Sources with direct knowledge told the outlet that she has been giving him some space while he handles the end of his marriage to Lilly Jay. Earlier this week, Ethan filed for divorce from his wife and hired powerhouse divorce attorney Lisa M. Gardner. So now, the Broadway star is in New York to deal with the split, while Ariana is heading to Los Angeles this weekend. Although the controversial couple wants to see each other, insiders claim that’s not happening anytime in the future.

Does this mean the last time they saw each other was during that cozy weekend getaway to Soho Farmhouse for her 30th birthday? Sounds like it! And because these two haven’t hung out in a while, does that mean their relationship is already fizzling? The TMZ sources insisted Ariana and Ethan are still dating despite the distance. Hmm.

There is no doubt the 31-year-old actor has a lot to work out with his high school sweetheart since they share an infant son Ezra, and he “desperately” wants them to co-parent him amid their drama. This breakup also doesn’t seem amicable, meaning things could get nastier between the former couple. We mean, he retained a high-power lawyer — that tells us he’s preparing for a legal battle! It’s no wonder Ariana is backing off a bit…

As Perezcious readers know, the Thank U, Next hitmaker reportedly separated from her estranged husband, Dalton Gomez, earlier this year, and a divorce filing is coming sometime soon. Shortly after their split broke online, news dropped that she was already dating Ethan. While sources have made it seem the pair didn’t begin a relationship until after they separated from their spouses, fans have been very skeptical. And there has been a lot of evidence to back up why the timeline of their romantic entanglement is sus! We’ve heard everything from that they had a very close bond on the set of Wicked to insiders claimed owned up to his affair with Ari right before the news of their romance broke. We mean, Lilly even gave a statement on the matter to Page Six on Thursday — and it was telling to say the least:

“[Ariana’s] the story really. Not a girl’s girl. My family is just collateral damage.”

Yeah… This sounds like someone who is feeling heartbroken and betrayed right now.
