Ethan Slater Opens Up About Ariana Grande Relationship For First Time: Gossip Has Been ‘Difficult’

Ethan Slater is breaking his silence on his relationship with pop star and his “Wicked” costar Ariana Grande. In an interview with GQ published on Oct. 30, the Tony nominee admitted having his personal life under a microscope has not been easy. “I think there was something that was really difficult about things in your private life being commented on and looked at by the public.” Slater shut down tabloid rumors saying, “it’s really hard to see people who don’t know anything about what’s happening commenting on it and speculating, and then getting things wrong about the people you love.” Slater and Grande’s romance was confirmed in July 2023 after meeting on the set of “Wicked.”
